Review:
My first impression of this lip blush was influenced by the pretty packaging. I enjoy “clean” beauty products and the blueish-green tube with “Green Edition” stamped onto the side caught my eye. The color that I have is “Lightning” which contains a pink-nude shade. It honestly is the perfect “my lips but better” color! I’m not sure that I have ever encountered a shade that complimented my skin tone so well!
When applying the lip blush, it glides on and it melts into your lips with it’s lightweight formula. This results in a glossy nourished look. The downfall for me came after about 30 minutes. My lips were feeling dry and the glossy color turned into more of a matte shade. Unfortunately, I am typically not a fan of matte lip products as they do not look flattering on me. As such, I kept reapplying throughout the day to achieve a glossier lip.
The staying power for this lip blush is low, as it is more like a tinted lip balm. However, that doesn’t bother me. The scent is also very pleasant without being overbearing. I never regret lip product purchases as long as they do not accentuate dry chapped lips. No one wants a lip color that settles into lines, cracks, or piles up around dry skin. Thankfully this shade did not do that!
All in all, I think that Maybelline’s Green Edition Lip Blush is worth the money. However, I do not think that I would repurchase it. Strictly because it dried down to a matte look for me after awhile. We all have our own preferences when it comes to lip products, so if you can rock glossy and matte looks, this might be something you love!
