Maybelline SuperStay 14HR Lipstick in Perpetual Peony Review and Swatches

 So this lipstick isn't really a fall or winter lipstick....but OH WELL. I lOVE IT. It's beautiful for spring and even though it doesn't really fit in the current season I wear it anyways. Maybelline SuperStay 14HR lipstick in Perpetual Peony is a beautiful bright pink with a slightly purple undertone. It almost reminds me of cotton candy. This product smells DELICIOUS..I have no idea why...it just smells sweet and yummy which I guess is a plus unless you don't like scented products.

This lipstick is marketed as very long-wearing and non-drying. While this lipstick does last longer than my other ones, I find that it wears off in an unflattering way. On the lips it does feel kind of weird with a sticky feeling. However I guess that is what makes it last. It looks beautiful on the lips and reminds me of spring flowers. The biggest problem I have with this lipstick is that on me it is extremely drying. It accentuates any dry spots I may have, and also seems to create dry patches on my lips.

Grade: C+

Conclusion: Although I love this color and it does last long, this product is very drying on my lips. At the same time it doesn't always look good with my skin tone..I have no idea why.. :( BOO


Love,
Cherie
