Maybelline Superstay 2 Step Lip Color


For the first time I decided to try a drug store Lipcolor instead of a department store one and I was actually suprised at the outcome. Since the commercial won me over I decided to try the Maybelline Superstay 2 Step Lipcolor in Everlasting Wine and I liked it, not loved just liked.

Was the color longlasting? Hell yeah! 24 Hours? I think that's pushing it for any lipstick lol but it can take you threw your 9-5 for sure.

The only downfall for me was that I found it a little cakey and it made my lips wrinkle.

Would I purchase another one? Probably not
