Maybelline Beige Babe, Honey Pink, Naked Coral, Raw Chocolate Sensational Inti-Matte Lipsticks

Beige Babe

Maybelline Beige Babe Color Sensational Inti-Matte Lip Color ($7.99 for 0.15 oz.) is a muted, medium pinky-coral with warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had semi-opaque color coverage that did not apply particularly well; despite the texture feeling creamy and gliding across the lips without tugging, the color separated and caught on every flake and imperfection I had. It wore poorly, as the color moved around, migrated into lip lines, and turned patchy within two hours of wear. I think the only way to make it workable is mixed with a little bit of balm (which doesn’t help the settling but improves the drier appearance) or use over a lip liner.

Maybelline’s Color Sensational line does have a sweet, perfume-y scent to them, though it did not seem quite as overwhelming in the Inti-Matte range compared to past launches to my nose.

Honey Pink

Maybelline Honey Pink Color Sensational Inti-Matte Lip Color ($7.99 for 0.15 oz.) is a brighter, medium-dark pink-coral with warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had good pigmentation, though not quite opaque, that covered evenly. The lipstick felt creamy, comfortable to wear, and applied without pulling on the lips, but again, it just looked drier and pulled away at my lip lines. The color lasted well for three hours and was neither drying nor hydrating.

Naked Coral

Maybelline Naked Coral Color Sensational Inti-Matte Lip Color ($7.99 for 0.15 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark pink-coral with warm undertones and a satin finish. The consistency felt more emollient than the majority of shades in the Inti-Matte range, and it did not appear as dry on the lips as a result, though I still had some issues with color pulling into my lip lines. It had nearly opaque pigmentation that went on evenly and lasted for four hours. The formula felt just a touch hydrating overall.

Raw Chocolate

Maybelline Raw Chocolate Color Sensational Inti-Matte Lip Color ($7.99 for 0.15 oz.) is a medium-dark rosy brown with warm undertones and a satin finish. It had rich, opaque pigmentation that covered the lips with smooth, even coverage. The lipstick felt lightly creamy–enough creaminess to glide on but not slide around over time–and felt and looked more hydrating. This shade wore well for four and a half hours with a bit of color settling into lip lines, and it was slightly moisturizing over time.
