Even though I have approximately 400 lipsticks (and I think that's being conservative) I can never resist buying new ones. Especially if they're on sale or buy one, get one free, which is what happened to me last week at CVS with the (relatively) new Color Sensational Lipcolors from Maybelline. I bought four different shades (yeah, I know - I could've just bought one and gotten one for free, but where's the fun in that? This way I got TWO for free. And two free lipsticks are always better than one). I tried a bunch of different color options, a red (Very Cherry), a brown (Blushing Brunette), a pink (Hooked On Pink) and a Plum (Plum Paradise) and I'm totally impressed with them all. The formula is creamy, decently long-lasting, doesn't dry out my lips, and comes in an amazing 48 different shades. You can get colors from barely there neutrals to bright, bold shades and everything in between for around $9 a tube (and that's without sales!) If I was flying somewhere and my makeup bag somehow got left behind (the horror!) this would be the first display I would hit up at the local drugstore to pick up some lipstick for my trip. High praise, indeed! There are also Color Sensational Lip Liners and Color Sensational Lip Glosses available, which are next on my list to try. Is it too much to hope for another CVS sale soon?
