    I normally use lip balm because I don't have time to pick a cot that looks good with my very pale skin. Normally I find lipstick doesn't stay on my lips very long, it typically goes right on my coffee mug or I end up wiping it off somehow. This time I found the color was amazing and not only complimented my skin but really finished my face. I didn't feel like I had a wax layer on my lips that was uncomfortable. And miracle of miracles! My mug didn't get a lipstick pattern. This is a great product and I have recommended it to my family and friends happily!

    As far as I know, this series is still available, but certain shades are discontinued. The only reason I tried Color Whisper lip color was because the shade I chose (Go Nude) had been discontinued and was available at half price at the grocery store. I assumed the lip stick wouldn't be bold, but on the subtle side. After all, with a name like "Color Whisper," I'd like to think that's pointing more toward a light shade.

    I can only speak for the Go Nude shade, which goes on nice and smooth and is definitely subtle. In fact, it's lighter than my actual lip color, leaving me with a slightly lighter pinkish color. When I swiped it across my hand, it was hardly visible, so Go Nude is reeeeeally light. It's nice and all, but kind of pointless when it hardly makes a difference. But hey, that's what I get for picking a neutral shade.

    My only real complaint about this product is the caps. The caps are transparent, but color-tinted. Meaning you can see the lipstick inside, but the actual shade is hard to see. The cap on Go Nude is bright orange, but the actual lipstick is much lighter. If you find one of these and they aren't sealed, pop the cap off and take a peek at the actual color before making your decision.

    Overall a nice product, though I'd never personally buy it at normal price. To be honest, I think Wet N' Wild's Mega Shield lip color works just as well as this and at half the cost.

    I have a tube from this in a really bright red, so it doesn't get used that often, but when I do put it on I really love it! Stays on for a long time, and for the price it's really good quality.

    I love this line of Maybelline lipstip. I love the colours that it has and just how easily it glides on the colour.

    I very rarely use lipstick, for some reason I always think that I look better with a dramatic eye and a neutral lip but something about those Color Sensational Maybelline commercials had me wanting a lipstick, badly. I went to Shoppers Drug Mart looking for them only to find they were $12. Ok, not bad, but a little more than I wanted to pay. Whether it was impulse or something different, I ended up walking out with a barely there pink shade, Born With It. Since I bought it about a week ago, I've already used it 3 times. It goes on smooth with a pearly finish. It stays on well and doesn't need any lip balm or lip gloss under or over it, like with a lot of other lipsticks. It's a bit expensive, but I'm planning on buying a couple other ones.

    I tried "Blushing Brunette" from the brown line. I thought this would be my favourite, but was surprised to find that "Summer Sunset" from the red line, was my favourite. I also tried "Yummy Plummy" from the purple line and "Let Me Pink" from the pink line. The lipstick went on smooth, with no bleeding. It was very creamy which I liked, especially for winter, as my lips are very dry right now. The colours seemed to stay on my lips quite well, almost like a stain, but the creamy part of the lipstick didn't seem to last more than an hour or 2. I tried the lipstick on top of Philosophy's Kiss Me Tonight, and it was really nice. My lips were softer, and it made the colour more muted, and more like a gloss. Overall, I would recommend this new line from Maybelline New York. I like the fact that you can choose something from all of the colour lines and it will look good. The colours I chose were all quite similar, but looked different once I put them on. They are good for blending together to make new colours as well. This is a thick lipstick with a nice shine, and great coverage!

    So I know my review is a little late, but better late than never. I received Born With It as a natural shade, Coral Crush as something a little more than just natural but not done up, Warm & Cozy as my done up look, and Red Revival when I feel bold. I'll review each lipstick seperately:

    Born With It: A very natural shade, Born With It was the first of the four that I tried. It looks great, really close to my own lip colour, so I can wear it everyday.

    Coral Crush: This is a fairly bright pink, but I love it. I found out today it looks great when I wear no other make up (absolutely no other makeup, not even mascara). Some people might not like this colour however, but out of the four lipsticks, I think this one lasted the longest.

    Warm & Cozy: This was the darkest lipstick I got, and honestly I think I'll only wear this on special events. Luckily the local teen/youth group was holding a semi-formal party that I attended, and everyone was to dress up, so it gave me the perfect opportunity to wear this shade. It's nice, but probably my least favourite, and will deffinitely be the least used of the four lipsticks.

    Red Revival: What won't this lipstick do for you? I absolutely LOVE this colour. It's so red, so luscious; with a white dress, any woman could pull off a Marilyn Monroe look. Whenever I feel edgy, daring, sexy or bold, this is deffinitely my go-to lipstick. Honestly, as long as this lipstick is in production, this will be an important staple in my make up collection.

    So in conclusion I looooove these lipsticks. A little must-know tip though: before applying, run a soft-medium bristled tooth brush under hot water and lightly scrub lips. Dry, then lightly apply a moisturizing lip balm (I like Nivea). Only after then apply the lipstick. The lipstick and colour will last all day until you a)drink using a straw or b)wipe your mouth. I found that using the above steps before applying the lipstick makes my lips look smoother, fuller and the lipstick will last longer. I deffinitely recommend Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipsticks!

    Overall I like this collection of lipsticks for the following reasons:
    -large variety of colours
    -the case is very sleek and cool
    -they stay on for a fairly long time. For a whole day I re-applied 1-2 times. If I just went out for an evening I probably wouldn't have to reapply.
    -some of the colours have a little shimmer to them
    -they smell very nice but are not overwhelming
    -they don't dry out my lips like some other "long-lasting" lipsticks

    The four colours I tried were "Very Cherry", "Coral Crush", "Sweet Nectar" and "Plum Paradise".

    "Very Cherry" is very bright red. Brighter than what I'm normally used to. If I need a bright red lipstick I would definitely use this but that's rare for me. It was interesting to try and out of my normal comfort zone which is why I got it.

    "Coral Crush" is a weird colour. When I opened up the lipstick case is was an extremely bright pink, almost neon pink. On the website, "Coral Crush" definitely doesn't look this bright, so I recommend definitely looking at the actual shades in a store first before purchasing these lipsticks. But when I received it and tried it, it actually went on more lightly. So I think as long as you don't layer it on too much, it can be a very nice pink.

    I like both "Sweet Nectar" and "Plum Paradise". "Sweet Nectar" is normally a colour I'd use and "Plum Paradise" is a bit different for me as I don't wear purple lipsticks but it's not too bright and has a bit of a shimmer to it.

    I would definitely buy "Sweet Nectar" and "Plum Paradise" again. I might buy "Coral Crush" again or would consider trying a different pink instead. These are pretty good lipsticks and I like them. For the price of $10 I'd buy them although I might try different shades to shake things up.

    I was one of the lucky reviewers to be chosen for this product. Maybelline kindly sent me 4 different shades to try: Summer sunset;Get nutty; yummy plummy and born with it

    I really liked all 4 colours, but would have to say that get nutty was my favorite. I felt very sexy and womanly when I was wearing this colour.

    I would definitely buy this product
