I am out of my comfort zone! Applying it, eeek, it is so dark. I am not vampy! I like sheer washes color on my lips and clean eyeliner. In fact, I can remember the last time I did, not counting Halloween scenarios – my mom had a dark burgundy(ish)? Clinique lipstick ages and aaaages ago. Though I will sometimes wear a bold red lip, I pretty much never wear a dark lip. Should have let Beso dry, but I was rushing. For reference on how dark it is, Maybelline Creamy Matte Lipstick this is sitting next to a well-known shade, Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Beso. It isn’t like… Nyx Soft Matte Lip Cream in Transylvania or Nars Train Bleu dark, but it is a pretty deep wine red.

So dark! The flash makes this look not quite as dark as it is. The caps on the Creamy Matte Lipstick shades are identical: frosted for a matte look, but this otherwise looks like many of the other Color Sensational lipsticks from the outside. They were out of Touch of Spice, but I did get Divine Wine to share with you. I need dis.” I looked around and could find no information online, not even on Maybelline’s site.Ī few days later, I saw other YouTubers sporting shades from the Color Sensational Creamy Matte Lipstick line and the message was clear, “go to Target.” Next time I was there, armed with a new coupons (no shame in trying something new with one, after all), I went to get Touch of Spice and Divine Wine. I actually saw them on YouTube first before seeing them in a store, on a blog, etc – Nicole Guerrero was wearing Touch of Spice in a recent video and I was like, “Yep. When I heard that Maybelline added this new Creamy Matte Lipstick formula to their Color Sensational line, I was damn excited. Despite the fact that I don’t wear them often (they’re a little high-maintenance for my day-to-day tastes), I love the look of a matte lip. Lipsticks are one of those fun items that you don’t need a ton of time to test in order to fully evaluate.

I need to add some life back to my face if I need to be around people – which I did since I was unable to take any days off. I want my sick day makeup to have as few steps as it reasonably can without sacrificing results because chances are I wanted to get out of bed on time even less that day than a regular day. Though I already have a pretty simple routine, if I’m feeling out of it I want to simplify as much as possible.

What the sick day makeup needs to correct: pale, dull skin drier-than-usual skin, dark eye circles, redness around nose area. If I didn’t have to work, you can be sure that I would’ve been bare faced. I prefer not to entertain those questions, so sick day makeup it is. Being sick – not enough to debilitate you, just enough to make you uncomfortable and annoy you – is no exception, especially if you aren’t able to stay home for the duration of your illness.Īlso, I want to be clear that I’m not suggesting that anyone do these things or wear sick day makeup, but since I had to go to work I prefer to look a little more lively feeling out of it is an impact to productivity enough without a dozen people stopping you throughout the day asking if you’re okay, tired, sick, etc. Even though I don’t always execute this philosophy, I am of the opinion that the days upon which we want to bother with makeup the least are often the days when we can benefit from it the most. I’m finally pulling out of it, thankfully.įortunately, I haven’t had to look as rough as I’ve felt and sounded. Oh, and waking up in the middle of the night, too. That said, I look like hell because being sick generally does that to you as does the whole sinus-pressure-induced headaches and face pain. I have been sick-ish since last Friday with a stupid sinus thing.
