I know that in my earlier post (at 1:30 am...man, I really need to get my sleeping patterns back on track) I said that my next post would be about IPSY. Well, I just could not wait and decided to write a post about one of my favorite drug store companies, which if you can guess by the title is...MAYBELLINE!
Before I tell you all about how I became obsessed with Maybelline, I think it makes sense for me to tell you briefly on how my love for makeup came to be.
I am not sure if I already wrote this or not, but the first time I started using makeup was for my senior prom. Instead of going to the drugstore, my mom (who is amazeballs by the way) took me to Sephora (big mistake). To make a long story short, I left the store after spending $300 on makeup, crazy right? At the time I did not even know how to put on makeup and looking back on that moment now, I think I should have just stuck to drugstore makeup for my first time.
Jump 2 years later, I discovered Maybelline products...well I knew about them but I had never tried them before. I knew the commercial "Maybe it's Maybelline," but I did not understand the hype, until I tried the product that would change my view on liquid liner forever. The Maybelline Line Stiletto is by far, my most favorite eyeliner I have ever tried (even surpassing high-end ones). The thin flexible brush made it easy for me to learn how to create a cat-eye line on myself. From that moment on, I have tried several Maybelline products throughout the years.
Looking at this picture, I realize that I do not own that much Maybelline but my collection is still growing. Looking at it now,I also realized that all of the products I own and have tried are for face. Hm...maybe I should try a lipstick next. What do you ladies think?
These products are the:
- Maybelline Line Stiletto in Black
- Super Stay 24 Concealer in Medium Beige
- Great Lash Clear Mascara
- 24 Hour Color Tattoo Metal in 70 Barely Branded
- 24 Hour Color Tattoo in 35 Tough as Taupe
- Eyestudio by Maybelline in 80 Pink Persuasion
I decided to swatch them for you guys if you are interested in the colors. Each color arrow corresponds to a different product.
- Black Arrow - Maybelline Line Stiletto
- Brown Arrow - Super Stay Concealer
- Eggshell Arrow - Barely Branded
- Grey Arrow - Tough as Taupe
- Pink Arrow - Pink Persuasion
* The Mascara is clear so there was no sense in swatching it.
I know there are so many other Maybelline products out there to try. Some of them are:
- Baby Lips
- Color Tattoo Pigments
- All of their Mascaras - Which one do you recommend?
- Color Whispers
- Vivids Collection
- Dream Lumi Line
- Fit Me Foundation
