Maybelline Monday: Lipstick Swatches

Hey Everyone,
I'm so sorry I haven't been posting for a while, I've had so much work to do and very little free time for makeup. I'm on Christmas break right now, so I'm finally getting a bunch of makeup done! This post is something that I've been wanting to do for a while: swatching my entire Maybelline lipstick collection.
During Fashion Week, Maybelline sent me a big box full of their makeup, so that's where I've been getting all of this. While it is very generous of Maybelline to give me lots of materials to work with, I would like to say that my reviews, swatches, and looks are not altered in any way and will always be my own opinion.

These Lipsticks are the Color Sensational Lipcolors and the Color Sensational Pearls Lipcolors by Maybelline.
These have a really nice, smooth formula that I found, for the most part very easy to work with. The only ones I didn't like too much were the pearl lipcolors because they aren't so much colors, as they are coats of sparkles, so they turned out somewhat patchy-looking. (This may be because my lips were a bit stained after swatching the red toned lipsticks before them.) I also tend to prefer matte lip colors over shimmers, so that may just be a personal preference =)

I hope you find these helpful and enjoy!
