My Experience with Maybelline Color Sensational Matte Metallics Lipstick Gunmetal:
The packaging of the lipstick is common like all other lipsticks of color Sensational range. There is only a change in the color of the cap. The lipstick tube is rectangular and comes wrapped in a cellophane paper, which has necessary details about the product. The tube has a mirror finish and it closes with a long translucent black colored plastic cap.
There is a color-coded sticker at the base of the lipstick tube, which bears the shade name and number. The brand’s tagline is printed on the lipstick tube in small black fonts. Overall, the packaging is basic and travel-friendly. But, there is nothing too fancy about it.
This is the first time when Maybelline has come up such dramatic shades in their permanent line. The shade “Gunmetal” is a blue-black kind of shade with some grey hues. They have made a blue lipstick really wearable. It has nice silver shimmers in it, which impart a classy metallic finish to it. The shimmers are medium in size. Though the shimmers are not gaudy, they are easily noticeable. This color is not for faint-hearted people. And, the best part about this lipstick is that a very few drugstore brands launch such unusual shades and that too with an amazing quality.
Most of the shades of this range have average pigmentation. This shade has semi-opaque coverage. The color is buildable with just two swipes. It looks even on the lips and covers the pigmentation easily. Despite having shimmers, there is no grittiness in the texture. It has a mild vanilla fragrance, which is barely bothersome. It is a little strong initially and fades away within a few minutes.
The texture of the lipstick is soft, smooth and creamy. It glides effortlessly on the lips and does not cause any dragging. But it slightly tugs and pulls the lips, if the lips are not well exfoliated and moisturized. It is so lightweight and feels super comfortable on the lips. It does not have a thick or heavy texture. There is no stickiness in the formula. It is neither too drying nor really moisturizing. So, I always use a lip balm beneath to keep my lips hydrated for long. The lipstick does not have creasing tendency even if it is layered on. It does not look patchy and it does not transfer as much.
The longevity of the lipstick is somewhere around 4-5 hours on my lips, but later on it settles into the fine lines of the lips. The shimmers look gaudy and it requires instant reapplication. It is easy to remove. The shimmers get wiped off easily and the lipstick does not have any staining issues.
