Maybelline’s Color Sensational lipstick in Brazen Berry (905)

The cooler of the two purple lipsticks in the Vivids group. Hot Plum is more fuchsia-violet. This one is straight-up heliotrope. I'm not wildly in love with the shade, but it does look decent on me, and it's not as purple as I originally thought it might be.

The glossy finish is typical of the Vivids. The finish is fairly durable - it doesn't vanish long before any of the color has been blotted, patted, talked, et cetera, off of my lips.

Photos that show how the product actually performs...! See how I create my swatches

A montage of three images: top left, close-up of the lip color in the tube; top right, the color applied over bare skin, to better show the shade; and below, the color applied to the lips.
