Maybelline has launched new Lip Flush Just Bitten Lipsticks. I was looking at them in store the other day, quite unsure if I want to try them, still picked just to see what they do. They looked quite fancy & cute.
Maybelline Just Bitten Lip Flush allows you to perfect the gradient lip with just one swipe. Create the most captivating gradient lips with its unique three-tone colors which are infused with natural food grade pigments. This ultra creamy formula provides up to 12 hours moisture.
Leave a sensuous finish.
Infused with shea butter for 12 hours moisture.
It is extremely light weight
Contains natural food grade pigments.
Packaging is what pushed me into buying these. The gradient colored covers look pretty. There are only two shades available and their outer cover represents the shade inside. Pretty easy to find in a stash. The shade number is written on the bottom.
Shades – Maybelline Lip Flush Just Bitten Lipstick is available in two shades – Raspberry Smoothie & Sunset Sorbet . Raspberry Smoothie has pink hues, Sunset sorbet has orange hues. There are 3 shades in one bullet, including one frosty shade to create a perfect gradient look. I didn’t think these would work but they did !
Texture & Formula – Maybelline Lip Flush Just Bitten Lipsticks have a jelly like formula. These feel light weight and gel like on the lips and upon swatching. The texture is smooth and balmy. I like how clean and sheer it is on the lips.
The moisturising finish is nice for everyday wear. It doesn’t do much if you have chapped lips, the chapped skin shows through the sheer formula.
Pigmentation – Very sheer. These are supposed to give you “just Bitten” lip look that doesn’t need much pigments. I can see where this comes from, asian counties have this trend for years. I have pigmented lips and the colors doesn’t look at good as you would expect.
Staying Power – Maybelline Lip Flush Just Bitten Lipstick vanishes as soon as you drink or eat something, similar to a lip balm or lipgloss.
Maybelline Raspberry Smoothie, Sunset Sorbet Lip Flush Just Bitten Lipstick is priced at Rs 475, available online & in store

Overall Thoughts
Having natural food grade pigments as colors and sweet candy like scent definitely makes them perfect for everyday wear. Maybelline Lip Flush Just Bitten Lipsticks are sheer and can get you “just bitten” lip look in just one stroke.However the coverage & staying power is pretty low which is such a bummer for this price.

These sure look like candies and reminds me of alpenlibe.
Sheer color and balmy appearance. I like.

The pigmentation is too sheer, at least they should have made it bit pigmented for Indian skin tones!
