Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick in Nearly There Review

Dear all,

Hope you are having a great week. I have been extremely busy with work and family, but now I am back and will be posting reviews and hopefully some tutorials shortly. Today, I will be reviewing one of my very first lipsticks from Maybelline’s Colorsensational range.

I personally love “Colorsensational” lipsticks.  They are fantastic in texture and perfect for everyday office wear. The shade range is huge and I mean really huge ranging from nudes, browns, pinks, to plums, etc. The one I will be reviewing today is called “Nearly There.”

Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick in Nearly There Review

I bought this lipstick thinking it would be a perfect n*de lipstick for me.  Also, when the SA swatched on me, it looked gorgeous with all that frosty glossy finish, but the moment I tried it on, I was highly disappointed! This shade does not suit me at all and in fact makes me appear sick and weird. The frost finish of the lipstick makes my lip appear ghastly white. I think I picked up the wrong shade for my NC42 skin tone because my sister has the same lipstick and it looks gorgeous on her, but she is like 10 shades lighter than me. So, I think this shade will suit fair skin tones only and will wash out medium to dusky skin tones.

The shade overall is pretty and has frosty finish.  The pigmentation is good and stays on me for about 2 to 3 hours. I usually top it off with a lip gloss to make this work for me. Also because of the frosty finish, it instantly makes lips appear plump and fuller.

Do I Recommend Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick in Nearly There?

Yes, if you are fair and want a good everyday wear lipstick and if you like frosty finishes. I do not recommend this lipstick to dusky girls as it will wash them out.

Hope this review was helpful to you all.  Until tomorrow, take care and stay beautiful.

PS:- Sorry for no LOTD/FOTD as camera was not catching the color at all and making my lips appear ghastly frosted.

  1. Parita..i have this shade..i agree its too light for medium skin tones..But try this…apply this lipstick over Faces lip pencil in shade Sand..let me know how it works for u..

  2. Ya Pari totally understand how some n*de lipies take life out of the face. But i am also utterly bemused by them. Some of them really look good on my face! And frosted n*de, I am not ready for it yet

  3. Thank God u reviewed it , Parita! I was so much tempted to buy this shade from a website thinking it wud be a perfect nude shade…but u saved me! I am also NC42 and i hate frosted lippies…Thanks a lot!

  4. I was thinking the shade would be something like Totally Toffee and was totally about to order it online the other day…but thanks, I didn’t realize this was frosted finish. Thanks, what a timely post 🙂
