Review! Maybelline New Color Elixirs in Petal Plush & Celestial Coral!


These glosses have made a huge impression on the beauty community. These new color elixirs are not only available in a ton of new shades but they are also cute as a button.

The two shades I got are:
Petal Plush: A nude glittery baby pink
Celestial Coral: A creamy pink coral

Petal plush comes off as a very pale pink. I personally think it look unflattering just worn on its own. I would wear it over a nude or pink lipstick. 

Celestial coral is much more pigmented with rich color payoff and leaves a slight stain afterwards. 

I do have to point out that these glosses have a weird plastic smell to them which I am not a fan of. 
The applicators also are shaped similar to the L'Oreal Carress glosses that were released last year. 

The more darker the color the more pigmentation it had I found. Where as the pale, more nude colors were very sheer. The colors that did have a deeper pigment had a great color payoff and left a slight stain. After eight hours of wear, these glosses didn't last too long with only a few hours of staying power. Forget eating or drinking cause you will have to reapply. 

Overall, I would say to pick more of the deeper shades in the collection because the richer the color, the more pigmentation it had, and it has more staying power

Overall Grade
Petal Plush: C
Celestial Coral: B

Where you can get these products: At any drugstore or major retailer that sells Maybelline cosmetics
