Maybelline Water Shine Lipstick

This was marketed as something of a wonder product when it first came out! I believed the hype and the advertisements so I found myself buying one in my local Boots. Watershine started a whole chain of products...Watershine Diamonds and Watershine Nail Colours. The packaging is very pretty, the lipstick is encased in a pearlised pink plastic with the little band of silver visible in the middle. The first one I bought was Pink Lollipop but I am sure the names have probably changed as they so often do! It cost around £6 or £7 so it wasn't particularly expensive! However I was very impressed with the quality of this product. It actually did everything ...  Read the complete review

I have found that I really get on with this lipstick, I bought it upon seeing my friend with it. I never wear the stuff because of my lips going dry every 20 minutes or so I'm always wearing lipsalve or vaseline, and I am a complete lipstick novice, so I thought well this is advertised as a glossy like lipstick I'll try it. I bought Juicy Bubblegum, a mostly grown up pinky colour and herein is the review. I found the pink packaging very attractive and the actual product very easy to apply, although I recommend not doing what I do and only using one side so that it goes into a point thatmay break off at any given time!!! The case seemed high quality and ...  Read the complete review

These used to be one of my favourite type of lipstick when I was younger. I say "used to" because, I am not addicted to more expensive make up and once trying brands like Dior, MAC, Urban Decay etc. there's no going back! From what I remember, there were two types of watershine lipsticks; they had the regular watershine range and the watershine diamonds. I loved the diamonds range the most as these had tiny silver glitter in their lipsticks which made the lips extra sparkly and shiny looking. These lipsticks come in a variety of colours, from neutrals, to pinks, reds and purples. The texture is creamy, soft and glides on nicely. The ...  Read the complete review

I was in Boots one day and noticed that they had a 3 for 2 offer on all Maybelline makeup. I wanted to see if I could find a colour that would suit me in the 18 hour wear lip colour and as it was a 3 for 2, I decided to buy two of the lip colours and get one of the WaterShine Aqua Mirror lipsticks free, as I had wanted to try it since it came out. PRODUCT This lipstick comes in 24 shades and is supposed to create a reflective, glistening, water-like effect. The lipstick contains vitamin E to nourish the lips, leaving them feeling soft and supple without a sticky feeling. It has a pleasant, light, slightly sweet smell.

Like many people, I was lured into buying this product after seeing the advertising, both on TV and in magazines. This new lipstick claimed to give a shine to your lips, comparable to the shine you’d get from wearing a lipgloss, but without the stickiness that lip gloss can give you. It says that it gives you a ‘wet look’, by using a light reflecting formula. The models in the adversts certainly all had fantastic glossy lips and I was keen to emulate this. One of the things that always irritates me when I have lipgloss on, is that if it’s windy, my hair (which is still long even after having three inches cut off) blows across my face and gets ...  Read the complete review
