Maybelline Moisture Extreme Lipstick

September 4, 2008 By Carleenp 3 Comments

I love Moisturizing lipstick, and Maybelline has one of the best that there is. Maybelline Moisture Extreme Lipstick has a great creamy texture and it feels more like a balm than a lipstick.

Moisture Extreme contains jojoba oil as a conditioner and carries an SPF 15 rating. I lasts for a decent amount of time and you can pair it with a Maybelline Moisture Extreme Lip Liner Pencil for even longer wear.

You can find Maybelline Moisture Extreme in a plethora of shades at just about any drugstore or big box retailer.

Mark Hookups: Glow Baby Glow and Mini Mark it Stick

August 12, 2008 By Carleenp 1 Comment

Mark Cosmetics Glow Baby Glow Lip Gloss Mark Cosmetics (a division of Avon) have a fun line of items called hookups. These are cosmetics that hook together into pairs for easy carrying. I gave a couple of lip items a try.

Glow Baby Glo is a lovely, non-sticky, sheer, gloss. It comes in a variety of shades and has a faintly mint smell and taste. Nice stuff, especially for the price of $5!

I “hooked” my gloss to a Mini Mark it Stick, which is basically a fat, soft lip pencil/crayon. Like many of the lip crayons, this can be used for full color and it does a nice job of providing sheer tint to the entire lip area. I found the berry shade to be quite nice for everyday use.

Hooked together, they area a perfect pair! I color my lips with the pencil and then add a touch of gloss. And it all fits neatly into a small clutch! I love it!

Maybelline Line Stylist Lip Liner

July 3, 2008 By Carleenp 1 Comment

Maybelline has a pretty good soft lip liner at a nice price: The Maybelline Line Stylist.

This is a very slimline liner–one of the thinnest I have seen. The tip does a good job at giving a thin line, or a bit thicker with a bit of pressure. It is also nice an soft, but doesn’t smear.

Oh, and the color lasts extemely well. What more can you ask for?

Well…. there is one small issue with it, and we’re talkin tiny here–really not a huge concern to me at least. The packing is such that you turn it to click it up out of the tube. If you click too far, there doesn’t seem to be a reverse function. So proceed slowly!
