Maybelline Wet Shine Diamonds Lip Color: Pink Diamond

Today I read a review on Maybelline Wet Shine Diamonds Lip Color; the review was a good review, but I had just one major problem with the review. The review basically praised this lipstick as if it were worthy of a purchase, the review ranted and raved about how wonderful and beautiful the lipstick was.

I'm a makeup junkie, and I like to tell it how it truly is, I like to dig up the dirt on products. I like to include the pros and cons, and I will never blow up a product and make it out to be something it is not without at least weighing out the pros and cons.

For one, my lips have never met a lip stick that was perfect. Ever. You see perfect lipstick for me would be lipstick that goes on and leaves behind color without weighing my lips down with gunk and funk. The color would also remain on my lips till I washed it off, and my lips wouldn't dry out due to oddball long lasting chemicals in the lip color.

Sadly, I have yet to find anything like this. I have found lipsticks close to this. Close, but no cigar.

Maybelline Wet Shine Diamonds Lip Color hit the shelves years ago at our local Walmart and drug stores. Due to the pretty packaging and convincing advertising shelves Maybelline set up in stores, I of course had to buy one.

I went with Pink Diamond, only because at the time pink was my color, and I loved sparkles.

You see Maybelline Wet Shine Diamonds Lip Color comes with tons of micro sparkles that are inside of the lipstick.

My Use:

I applied the lipstick and liked the results enough to go back a few days later and buy another shade. You see at this time in my life I was new to lipstick, and I thought that Maybelline Wet Shine Diamonds Lip Color was great. It gave my lips a shade of color, with shine, and oh yeah did I mention...the glitter?

I stopped using it about a month later due to the cap breaking and sliding off inside of my purse. It wasn't just one of the lipsticks, it was both. For some reason the caps just loosened up and would pop right off in my bag. It sucked, it ruined the lipstick, and I stopped buying it.
