Recently I've developed somewhat of a lip product addiction... It would be a real problem if it wasn't so much fun! However one advantage of this (not so) shameful obsession is that I can share my findings with you lovely people in the world of blogs!
The one product that I've come across lately that really has caught my eye, are the new ColorSensational Popsticks from Maybelline. The two that I've brought so far, and trust me I will be getting more, are 040 Crystal Pink and 080 Cherry Pop.
I'm sure you've heard all the hype around the Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butters (review to come), and I'm pretty sure this is Maybelline's attempt at a similar product.
Anyway enough rambling, onto the review! As I'm sure you've guessed I lalalove these lip products, in my opinion they're just the right mix between being a gloss and a full lipstick.

I do recommend these products like crazy, although looking at them now, I do wonder how on earth they cost so much (just over the £7 mark) considering what they actually do, but because of the formula I can see one lasting an awfully long time...
In my opinion though the range of colours and the actual colour, provided you don't mind a bit of building it up, really makes up for it, they are gorgeous. As far as staying-power for this product goes, if it was marketed as a lipstick then I'd say it leaves a lot to be desired, but seen as it's more of a sheen/gloss I think a few re-applications throughout the day is to be expected!

So yes, I've been rambling for a while, time to wrap this up! Overall, it's pretty, bit pricey but I think they'll last for a while, might have to re-apply at times but if it looks like your kind of thing, go for it!
Well that's it from me for this 'lil blog I think! If you've caught the lip product bug with all these pretty colours for summer then please do leave your recommendations for me!
Lots and lots of love, Beth!
