Be-Talk: Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick in Crazy for Coffee : Swatch and FOTD


Brand Name: Maybelline

Shade: Crazy For Coffee (No. 275)

Price: 299 INR

Quantity: 4g


Brown lipsticks form some must have and mostly found colors in my closet. I am not much into pinks , reds or maroons-however I have a nose for a variety of browns or lippys with brown undertones.  I love the way-browns with plum or pink undertones along with a sheer texture pairs so well with a variety of eye make up and since I am an although eye make up person-soft browns are my holy grails :D  The Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick in Crazy for Coffee is one of such a “save my day” type of brown shade.


The plum tones can be seen in flash
  Me-Talk: 

The Crazy for Coffee shade is pretty unique-which looks purely brown in tube. On lips it comes out a beautiful rose toned brown-which is difficult to tell if it’s actually a plum or a brown. And the color appears so soft that it becomes a perfectly day wearable chic color. These type of colors-I think suits any kind of eye makeup-whether paired with heavy, colorful or neutral eyes :) And as an everyday neutral lipstick -it goes with a variety of colors of dresses and suits formal occasions too. 


With Flash
 Pro Side: 

1) Beautiful plum-brown color that doesn’t look garish. Gives a soft and nude finish-very wearable
2) Very Moisturizing
3)  Affordable quantity and quality
4) Easy availability
5) I have never found these lippys to sweat- or melt in summer

Down Side: Staying power is about 2-3 hours without meals in between

Recommendations: (For this Shade: 90%)


FOTD: Pairing with Lakme eye pencil in Aqua green
 FOTD: Pairing with Revlon Colorstay pencil in blackest black and Maybelline Collossal Kajal
and some peachy pink blush from Streetwear

(Err-this pic was taken in the Sun-I am not that fluorescent kinda fair :D :D )

  8. and hey-Autumn rush is a pinkish brownish beige actually-it has little share of each of these colors-so quite different-Autumn rush is a perfect nude lippy for medium tones-this one-CFC-is much deeper than AR-the best is to buy both :):):)
