Maybelline Color Whisper: Mocha Muse


What I love the most about these Maybelline Color Whispers is the packaging. It's sleek and light; much skinnier than your average lipstick. I adore the translucent caps that are tinted to match the color of the product, and I love how polished it looks with the foil cursive.




The product itself is not a game-changer. It deposits a hint of color with a glossy finish.  It's less moisturizing than the Revlon Lip Butters but goes on slightly smoother than most Maybelline Color Sensational Lipsticks. 

It's "color suspended in gel" with  no "heavy waxes or oils" -- personally, I like a dash more of those waxes and oils. It makes my lip feel nourished in dry, cold, winter weather.  



I would say that it applies true to color, though obviously not opaque. I can only speak for Mocha Muse; the deeper hues may have more opacity than this light one I purchased. 

Personally, I'm not sure that I love this particular Color Whisper. I have pretty pigmented lips, so although the swatch on my wrist shows a very pretty, delicate touch of color, it doesn't really show on my lips.  

On a day that I want to wear a hint of lip color, I'll most likely reach for a Revlon Lip Butter, a Clinique Chubby Stick, or a Fresh Sugar Balm in Honey. They're all just a little bit more moisturizing, a wee bit smoother.  

The biggest question is why, in the midst of my self-applied "month of strict saving" rule, I managed to purchase not one but several non-necessities.

My will buckles much too often.

  4. When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each time a
    comment is added I get several emails with the same comment.
    Is there any way you can remove me from that service?
    Thanks a lot!

  5. I do not know whether it's just me or if perhaps everybody else encountering issues with your website. It appears as if some of the text in your posts are running off the screen. Can someone else please comment and let me know if this is happening to them as well? This could be a issue with my internet browser because I've had
    this happen previously. Appreciate it

  6. Howdy! Quick question that's completely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My blog looks weird when browsing from my iphone 4. I'm trying
    to find a theme or plugin that might be able to correct this problem.

    If you have any recommendations, please share. Cheers!

  12. Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering
    if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
    I've been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.
