How to use
Open the cap top and swipe generously on your lips. About 2 shades can be applied for a bold look. One swipe for a subtle look is sufficient. A lip liner is not really necessary but if used, it gives a sort of pump and volume to the lips.
My experience with Maybelline Colorshow Red Carpet Creamy Matte Lipcolor
Packaging
It comes in a cute cuboidal shaped container, which can be twisted to reveal the lipcolor. The shade name and color are printed on the container, which makes it easier to choose the shades. The packaging is pretty decent overall.
Fragrance
Depending on the shade, the fragrance varies. The one I have smells like a mixture of strawberry and banana.
Experience
I have always liked Maybelline lipsticks, since they have a large range of shades, along with a decent price and good color pay off. I am a great fan of red lipsticks and I was in search of a proper, perfect red shade that can be used during any time of the day. My search ended when I saw one of my friends wearing this shade. I fell in love with this shade immediately. I asked her about the color code and name and immediately purchased it. And I don’t repent it. This shade is my go-to shade for any occasion, parties, outing, wedding, dinner and much more. Also, this shade is perfect for those romantic dates as well. The color doesn’t bleed hence you can wine and dine in peace with your special ones! I usually apply two coats of this and I am good to go. So girls, if you are looking for the perfect red, your search ends here.

Pros

- Wide range of colors
- Perfect red shade
- Smells great

Cons
- High content of lead
Most of the leading brands including the international ones have lead content. The only purpose of mentioning this con is to let people know the harms of lead. If the lips, by mistake, is smacked off when these lipsticks are applied, regularly, it can be fatal. For those who use lipsticks without licking the lips, it is absolutely fine. I love using these lipsticks since I completely avoiding smacking my lips.
Would I repurchase or recommend?
Yes, I would definitely recommend all the girls out there to try this lipstick. Apart from the fact that they have a high content of lead in them, they have no other cons. It can be used every day but the only fact to remember is that never smack your lips since that will make the product go inside the body. I would give this product a 5/5 since it has a great color pay off and it comes at an affordable price range.
