Yes!!!! Yet another hyped range of lip product by my cult favorite brand Maybelline has launched in India. I was checking about this product a few days back in international blogs where the product and packaging is the exact same but the names are different, and the range is called Maybelline Color Elixir.
This was launched here in India just a month back and they are called Lip Polishes here. Anyhow lets check out the review of a shade from the collection:

What the company claims:

A TRIO of CONCENTRATES:
- Potent Color Extracts: Pure saturated color pigments that provide deep intense color like a lipstick.
- Concentrated Liquid Balm: Moisturizing Liquid Conditioning Balm gets the lips ready for Intensely Rich color. Gives a soft Cushiony feel & care to the lips.
- Glossy Shine Serum: Built-in glossy top-coat, that makes lips look fuller & more luscious.
- Specially designed Leaf-shaped applicator which makes application quick & precise.
The Lip Polish range is divided into two categories:
1)Glam range
2)Pop range
Maybelline Lip Polish Pop 6 : Review / Swatch / LOTD |
There are 15 shades in this range and they have been assigned numbers which I find to be very confusing as I am very poor in number games 😛
Price: Rs. 450/-
Quantity: 5 ml.
Packaging: These lip polishes come in a rectangular transparent tube which has a silver cap. If you invert the tube it will look like a lipstick. The shade number is mentioned at the bottom. The price and other details are written on transparent plastic film i.e. seal which you have to tear off. The tube is small and the cap shuts perfectly. It comes with a leaf shaped applicator. The quality of the applicator is good and the elongated shape helps for precise application.

Shade: Pop 6 is a bright red shade which has very tiny gold shimmer particles. The colour is an extremely gorgeous red colour. The shimmers are an added a bonus I would say as it gives a sheen to the lips without making it OTT. This shade can be worn anytime and with any type of dress.
Texture: The texture is very smooth and soft upon application. It gives a complete glossy feel on lips and hydrates it really well. What I like about it is the non-sticky aspect which is really comfortable.

Pigmentation: Pigmentation of this gloss is quite good. Two swipes give full coverage. It makes for an amazing combination when paired with a bright red lipstick.
Staying power: The staying power is decent enough on me; it stays for 3- 4 hours if you consume only liquids. The glossiness does fade after two hours but the colour remains intact till you have a full meal. It transfers a lot which shortens the staying power.
