My views: I have always been a fan of Maybelline lipsticks. Be it pigmentation, or smooth texture or the variety of colors! Maybelline has always impressed me in every field! So naturally, when I received these lipsticks for review and consideration, I was more than happy. The new Rebel collection also has similar packing of their Bold Mat range. The shades are very bright, cheerful and “chirpy” colors!

REB01 is a true red which looks sort of cherry-red on the tube but comes out more warm red on lips. This is the kind of shade which would suit all complexions and would act as an instant “Face Brightener” ;) [Warning: I do NOT mean that this should be used as a highlighter!] Hehehe! Jokes apart, this kind of red will truly flatter every skin tone and not look garish.

REB02 is bright pink which might seem a bit too bright in the tube for people who like sticking to natural colors for lips, but once applied on lips it’s a very wearable soft pink with warm undertones. I feel that this shade would suit fair-wheatish skin tone perfectly and darker skin tones might find it a bit hard to pull it off comfortably. Nevertheless they can work it but applying a layer of darker lip liner all over their lips and topping with this beautiful pink J

The texture of both these lipsticks is glossy when applied on lips and it settles down to cream-sheen. If we blot it after application, we can reduce the glossiness without hampering the color because pigmentation for both these lipsticks is AWESOME! The application is also a breeze because it’s very buttery-smooth. I didn’t have to apply any lip balm before applying these lipsticks.

As far as staying power goes, they stayed on my lips intact for 4-5 hours after which there was slight fading. But on days I decided to go “nom-nom-nom” with food, they lasted for lesser time. Nevertheless, there was a string and beautiful tint even after heavy meals.
