Review: Maybelline Bold Matte Lipsticks MAT 6 & MAT 7
Matte lipsticks again, that’s what
popped out in your mind soon as you read the title? Mind not, lately my
addiction to matte lips products simply gets worse! Maybelline, my recent
favorite drugstore brand has one new range consisting of matte lipsticks only!
Curious much?
Description

nectar for soft, nourished lips.

Matte
from the Cap?
The packaging comes in tube type, just
as you seen these pictures. The body was covered with plastic seal, and the
brand & product’s name were printed on it. Once you tear it off, and it’s
gone for good, leaving a daring red, cloudy matte plastic cap covering 7/8 part
of the whole lipstick’s body.

You can see the shade’s name on the
bottom part of the lipstick. There’s no specific name for each shade, but there’s
number for each. The lipstick’s body is made of a mirror like material, and it
attracts fingerprints—sometimes causing annoyance, eh!
Today I’m going to review 2 shades out
of the total available 5 shades in Indonesia! I reached these two babies the
least, because, I think I would never work them out…but soon I realized I was
wrong.
Brand
New Feeling of Matte
Loving matte this damn much, I am now
able to tell which matte formula I like, and which I don’t. Experience is
always your best teacher! Maybelline Bold Matte offers you a brand new feeling
of matte: no tugging, no dry feeling, it’s all about matte but not the dead
matte. The formula is rather creamy than any other matte lipsticks, and the
finish is not really matte actually, it still has the tiniest bit of crème finish.
It glides easily on lips with minimal
tugging power (well does that phrase even exist LOL) and one single swipe is
already enough to cover your whole lips. The color, yet is true to what you see
in the bullet—sometimes if you’re not ready to work the bold color out, you
even want to dab and blend away or blot the lipstick up! Trust me!
Never
Forget Lip Balm, No Matter What
For the formula itself being not
really matte instead of creamy, it doesn’t really dry lips out. But if it
settles into lips’ lines, yes it does, if
there’s no lip balm underneath. So please, always do remember to apply lip
balm beforehand! Even so, the staying power is awesome without eating/drinking.
It lasts for more than 4 hours on me, without any signs of fading or so, but if
you’re going to have a heavy and happy greasy meal, you exactly wanna reapply
afterward! It transfers onto glass’ surface, but it doesn’t feather—even I wear
no lip liner underneath. Think it still does a great job!
Cute
Vampy Red, Sultry Nude Beige
MAT 6 is a vampy, dark maroon red
color. It’s a truly F/W color for me, leaning more blue-based than neutral. It
brightens up the complexion and is a classic vampy color, not that cheapo red—you know
what I mean—red color. Some people
think it’s scary and too dark for their liking, but it’s not really that scary.
I can work it soft or bold, and in either way I can still look damn gorgeous—well,
the color actually is.
MAT 7 is a…well, how to describe it? A
true light/medium beige color, once again it leans more into neutral color
family with no mauve hint and erhm, actually lacking in pink hint also because
it’s true beige. People rarely like this color, but…once again, I love it on my
NC20 skin tone. I hardly find the right nude lips for me to wear with soft
smokey eyes—some are too pale to wear alone—but this one really goes well even
with very minimal eye makeup. Bold cheeks-soft eyes-nude lips trend!

And here’s the look I made with the
lipsticks! Gorgeous not?

| MAT 7! |

| MAT 6 <3 |
I wear red for cute, and nude beige
for sexy. In both photos my hair is curly, so no cheating with the hairstyle
kay! Throw away the paradigm of “red is always being sexy”—it can be cute as
pink usually is; and “nude is always natural”—give me one and I can turn myself
sexy. LOL.
Maybelline Bold Matte Lipsticks retail
for IDR 71,900 or simply $7.5 each. I still have two more of them to review,
yes, and I’m missing one shade again because I think it simply won’t work on
me. Soon the other two lipsticks’ review will be up, so stay tune!
Score
Last Words?
Loving these to the moon and back! I
wish Maybelline would expand this range, and make it available for every
country. The formula, staying power, and the trueness of the color—can I wish
for more? Bold Matte is bold—in a beautiful way—and matte, yet is still, until
today, too good to be true (and missed). Triple love!
