All of the entries for the year 2020 were completed before March 2020. Most items were bought in, or before, 2019. And so, despite the pandemic where buying makeup is definitely a lower priority, I'm still publishing these posts.
Maybelline’s Color Sensational Lipstick in Pitch Black

The other Loaded Bolds colors were really great, so I was looking forward to owning a black and a white lip stick in this same formula. I was anticipating a solid layer of color with a single swipe, no over-dry feeling, and even coverage. Sadly, both apply a bit patchily. The black lipstick has a consistency similar to Raging Raisin: semi-opaque, a bit soft, and the color isn’t quite as even as I’d like.
