Maybelline Color Sensational The Buffs Lipsticks

The Color Sensational in the Buffs line contains mostly satin finishes which is nice because they will not dry out your lips, they have excellent wear time; I can get through a workday with only one touch up after lunch and they have that classic faint lipstick scent which does not transfer to the lips.

The caps on all the lipsticks are identical so make sure you turn the lipstick over to see what shade you’re purchasing.

Maybelline Color Sensational The Buffs Lipsticks Maple Kiss, Touchable Taupe, Untainted Spice, Espresso Exposed

I only got four shades…but I secretly want more…a CVS trip may be in my near future!

Natural Lip Color

For comparison of the swatches below above is a picture of my very pigmented natural lips.

Maybelline Color Sensational The Buffs Lipstick Maple Kiss

Maple Kiss  is a dark pinkish orange that pulls it’s color from Maple leaves as opposed to maple syrup as you would assume. Orange lips are all the rage right now so this is definitely a favorite!

Maybelline Color Sensational The Buffs Lipstick Touchable Taupe

Touchable Taupe  is just that….taupe. I my opinion this shade is slightly too light for me; it can run a little corpse like if I’m not careful in person. I kind of like how this is looking in this swatch though, what do you think?

Maybelline Color Sensational The Buffs Lipstick Untainted Spice

Untainted Spice is my perfect shade of nude for this collection. It gives my lips a more uniform color which I love. This is my favorite out of the four.

Maybelline Color Sensational The Buffs Lipstick Espresso Exposed

Espresso Exposed is a nice chocolatey red which I have been wearing to work lately. It’s dark but not dark enough where it’s inappropriate in a business environment. It can be a little splotchy, but that’s nothing careful application or a lip liner can’t fix.
