Maybelline Color Sensational Ultimatte Slim Lipstick in More Almond

Time and time again, I will always go back to bullet lipsticks. Their shelf life is generally longer than liquid formulas, and I find the application less fiddly than with a liquid formula. Plus, I’m a 90’s baby through and through. So don’t sleep on the Maybelline Ultimatte Lipstick range. And today, I’m showing off More Almond (P349).

Maybelline Superstay Active Wear Liquid Foundation 30H Wear

These last 2 weeks, I’ve been watching RuPaul’s Drag Race again. This time, Season 12. (And it’s because I have to be in a certain mood to binge a season.) Then I went down a rabbit hole and started watching a lot of Trixie Mattel and Katya videos on YouTube. This all ended up with me purchasing the Maybelline Superstay Liquid Foundation in 112 Natural Ivory (P629 / 30ml) that I copped from a drag makeup essentials video by Trixie, and then realizing that this was my first ever liquid foundation purchase from Maybelline. Would you believe?!

Maybelline Lash Sensation Sky High Waterproof Mascara

It’s been a while since I last reviewed a Maybelline mascara. 2017, to be exact. For several years, this old favorite of mine was replaced with Kbeauty brands. But fast forward to 2023, and they’ve definitely made their presence known again with the Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara (P469 / 6ml).

March 2021 Empties

This month’s empties post is on the modest side. It is the result of my trying to do some damage to the hoarder’s stockpile I have going on. The process started during the beginning of lockdown last year, when I realized that it might be harder to go out and get new things. It was the perfect opportunity for “out with the old”, so here goes:

Maybelline Master Chrome by Face Studio Metallic Highlighter

If I had to name one category of makeup that I find hardest to resist buying more of, highlighter is the obvious one that comes to mind. And since I’ve had the pleasure of discovering top shelf stuff like TheBalm and Becca early on, I consider my standards reasonably high. I sprung for Maybelline Master Chrome Highlighter in Molten Rose Gold (PHP 499) with an “oh what the heck” attitude when it went on sale, and I have no regrets.
