As I was going through my lippies drawers, I realise I don't have a lot of plums and reds in my stash so I made a quick stop at Guardian. I found a new display of the Maybelline Colour Show Lipstick.
Maybelline New York takes you on a color adventure with the launch of Color Show Lipcolor; an electrifying new assortment of 20 intense, long-lasting lip colors straight off the New York runway.

The display had the colours categorised in :
RED - Classic and iconic
PINK - Sweet or punchyNUDE - Natural and timeless
PLUM - Dramatic and outstanding
Since Guardian was having a "buy 3 for the price of 2" promo, I picked up 3 colours.
Red Siren 205
Nude Mocha 305
Plum Perfect 403
My thoughts
Priced at $9.90 each, the black plastic tube feel light but sturdy. The lipstick apply smoothly and opaque with just one swipe. It does makes my lips feel moisturised which is probably due to its glossy finish. While it can last a good 5 hours with light drinking, it does fade off a lot when I started eating. However, it leaves a nice even stain of colour on my lips. With 20 colours to chose from (5 different shades in each colour family), you can definitely find a shade or 2 that you will love. Overall, I definitely will be getting a few more shades, especially now that Luxola.com is selling them at 15% off the regular retail price. Or head to Guardian for the "3 for 2" promo!
