I rewrote the title of this post three times. Dont ask me why, but its one of those days where i just cant find adjectives to describe the color, so you will have to bear my lame title. Anyway, point is- i got this lipstick after seeing swatches of it on other blogs and also because i had some free maybelline vouchers which i had to spend, so i thought why not this- its coral, its pink, its moisturizing..win win win!

Colour: Like the name suggests the color is a coral pink. Its a nice bright candied pink with just a hint of orange undertone to it. Very Very flattering color for all skin tones. Specially, if you want to try a bright lip without going overboard, this is absolutely perfect . I adore this color so much!
Texture: This is part of their ‘Color Sensational Moisture Extreme ‘ Range. Very moisturizing!.I like
Pigmentation: Good.. For girls with naturally pink lips, its no problem at all. If you have extremely pigmented lips you might need to put two layers to get an opaque color- but the opaqueness does come…so decent pigmentation
Finish:Very nice- it gives a lustre like finish, with a shine- i dont want to apply any gloss over it because it already has a sheenyness to it
Lasting Power: Very Average. Wears off in about 3 hours. I also dont like how it looks once it begins wearing off- it settles into lips sometimes.
Packaging: Aweful. I hate the rust colored tube, reminds me of my aunts who owned lipsticks like these twenty years back

| Overall Verdict: 3.75 /5 Price: Rs 220/- Will i Repurchase: I wont need another one. Recommendation:This is a really nice candied pink color with coral undertones, which is great if you are looking to sport a bright lip without going overboard. Its also a color which is universally flattering, and a bargain to buy! |

Oooh looks good! I might buy this
love love love it! The shade is sooo pretty… am sure buying it!… thnx for the review

Will this go on darker skin? It does look nice..
Actually, I own this too & it does not look good on me. I look oompa-loompa-ish. I can only wear this if I sheer it out completely, which kinda defeats the purpose. So I would suggest that people test it out before buying. It's still a gorgeous colour though.
shade looks different on the lips than the lipstick itself..but the final color is very nice. i m a fan of pink myself..have quite a few of them. Will put them up on my post sometime
