Review: Maybelline XL Seduction Plumping Lipcolour

For my first review I decided to do it on the Maybelline XL Seduction Plumping Lipcolour. Its a lipcolour that contains collagen to give you lips a plumping effect. I own 6 of the 10 colours.

Swatches
Colours from left to right: 120 peach plum, 140 petal attraction, 150 born with it, 180 berry desirable, 620 in the nude, 640 tantalizing toffee

Does it work?
It does give a slight tingling sensation to your lips. Its not as strong as lip fusion or too faced' lip injection. I think it plumped my lips a little but there wasn't a noticeable difference. I find it doesn't work as well on dry lips. But I do prefer this over other lip plumping lipsticks, other lipsticks usually make my lips go red, especially around the edges. Not a good look >.<

Does it last?
The finish is pretty glossy, I find I can go without lip gloss wearing this. But the shine does go away after about an hour and the colour lasts about 3 hours. The plumping sensation last about 10 minutes for me

What I don't like...
It can easily come off, its not very pigmented. I really need to have lip liner underneath for the colour to show (I have really dark lips!! =( )

What I like...
I like the colours, I think they are pretty wearable and I love how it makes my lips feel. Even if it doesn't plump my lip it does make my lips feel lush.

Will I purchase again?
Well I did buy 6 so I guess so. But I don't think I'll purchase anymore after this I think I have enough colours. I loved Peach Plum, it's my favourite colour out of the bunch, it would probably be the only one I would repurchase.

I rate this 7/10

thanks for reading
