Maybelline launched these Super Stay lipsticks a month ago. Today I’m reviewing Endless Raisin (090).

You can see the exact shade on the lower part of the bullet. When my mom first saw it she thought it was a nail polish. I think it’s cute. It does look a little flimsy… I was hoping I don’t drop it down & then I did, minutes after getting it. Luckily it was shut, so nothing happened.

What they promise:

With proven long wear results, satisfactory reviews and high ratings you can be rest assured of confidently flaunting your perfect lips.
So, feel extremely comfortable, soothing and fresh always. with the new Superstay 14 hr lipstick and get the lip look you love!

• 14HR Lipstick with an ultra-lightweight formula
• Stays fresh, light, and comfortable
• Super rich color that lasts for 14 hours
• Pigments are enveloped in a longwearing system
• 16 long wearing shades

The shade itself is brown with a hint of mauve (no shimmer or glitter). This is not a lipstick shade I would usually go for, I tend to go for very dark, vampy shades. But I really like this one a lot. It’s quite close to my natural color, so it’s like a MLBB (my lips but better) shade for me.
There’s a fragrance of cherries & it is slightly sticky when just applied. But it sets in a few minutes to a soft matte finish & doesn’t go anywhere for a very long time. Is it 14 hours? I don’t know. As I said, this is quite close to my natural lip color so I don’t even notice when it fades away. It’s not moisturising but not drying either (NYX mattes are much worse). It does start to feel drying after 3 hours & I feel the urge to keep licking my lips, unless I put some balm on.

Lipstick swatch – two light swipes (light so you can still see the natural pigmentation difference between my upper & lower lip), natural light.
This is the first time I’m posting such a close up! I feel weird because now you know what my skin looks like. Oh well! #keepingitreal

Pros:
✔ Very pretty shade
✔ Lasts a long time without any touch-ups, doesn’t go away after a meal
✔ Lovely soft matte finish
Cons:
✘ Drying after a while
Price: ₹525 for 3.3 gms
Rating: 4/5
Will I Repurchase? Yes! I like that I found a MLBB shade.
Maybelline Super Stay 14 HR lipstick in Endless Raisin is quite subtle & not in your face so that makes it an ideal office or daytime lipstick. It will easily look great on all Indian skin tones.
