Maybelline Creamy Matte Lipstick in Touch of Spice

I'm not a fan of creamy lipsticks. You know, the ones that stain on your coffee cups when you drink. Others like the sticky feel, but I don't. So I like mattes better.

I was giddy when Maybelline introduced their newest line of matte lipsticks, the Maybelline Creamy Matte. Of all the shades available, the best seller is the Touch of Spice. So I bought one for myself to try.

The Maybelline Creamy Mattes  costs Php 299 each and can be bought at any Watsons or Maybelline counters nationwide. It is available in 5 shades, and 5 nude options.

WHAT I THINK:

The lipstick tube is sealed with the brown plastic cover and packed in a silver stylish lipstick holder. The usual packaging of lipsticks have the shades printed under the lipstick. There are some lipsticks in the market that easily breaks because of the packaging, but as for the Maybelline Creamy Matte line, the cap is easy to remove and close that does not make the lipstick break.

Touch of Spice is a red shade with a touch of brown. At first, I thought it was kind of nude, but swiping and swatching it, it gives you a red-maroon shade.

As you know, I'm not a fan of red. Although some friends say that it looks good on me, I personally cannot carry the shade. But don't get me wrong, the Maybelline Creamy Matte is a good option for starters and it has a very good finish. It looks matte but doesn't feel matte. It's a 50-50 instance of creamy and matte in one lipstick. I mean, how can that possibly happen? It's in between sticky and matte, but you get both feels.

I will still buy the Maybelline Creamy Matte line, but maybe another shade?
