MaybellineColor Sensational Loaded Bold Blackest Berry 887

This greige lipstick is everything I didn’t know I needed. The shade is a flawless balance of gray and beige—cool, muted, and effortlessly edgy. It’s the kind of color that turns heads without screaming for attention. If you’re into gothic, alt, or just more unconventional makeup looks, this is 100% a must-have.The formula is smooth and creamy, glides on without patchiness, and feels super comfortable on the lips. It has a soft matte finish that looks modern but doesn’t dry you out (which is so rare with matte lipsticks). It wears beautifully on its own, but I also love pairing it with a dark lip liner for a slightly more dramatic, sculpted effect.What makes this lipstick a standout for me is how versatile it is within the goth and alt beauty aesthetic. It gives that slightly undead, high-fashion vibe—like something straight off a runway or a moody editorial shoot. It’s a perfect alternative to black or deep purple when you want something different but still dark and bold in its own way.It works with minimal makeup for a stark, striking look, or with full glam for an unapologetically bold style. I’ve gotten compliments every time I wear it—people always want to know what shade it is!If you’re into alternative beauty, love experimenting with cool tones, or just want something that breaks out of the usual pink/red/nude rut, this greige lipstick is pure perfection. Will definitely repurchase.

Perfect lipstick. Lovely summer pink, long lasting and not at all dry.

Lovely colour & goes on really nice. Moisturizing doesn't stay on for a long period but I don't mind that. The price was also good.

Absolutely love this lipstick, ive been wearing the same colour for too many years to mention. So pleased to find this.The texture is smooth, not sticky but it is shiny, stays on well. I cant say enough about this lipstick i never change it ❤️

The media could not be loaded. "As a lipstick aficionado, I was excited to try Maybelline's Red Matte Lipstick. The product did not disappoint. This lipstick glides on smoothly, providing a velvety, rich color that is both elegant and bold.I was pleasantly surprised by how long-lasting it is. The matte finish is true to form, lasting for hours without smudging or fading. It has become my go-to option for special occasions and nights out.The formula also left my lips feeling moisturized and comfortable, a feature that I greatly appreciate in a lipstick."

Looks more reddy orange on picActual shade is more dark red

Absolutely beautiful lipstick, love the colour.

The picture gives the illusion of a much warmer, brick-reddish mixed with pink than the real life rather pale lipstick. It might be ok/achieve that effect for very pale skin tones but if you're anything from olive to darker, it won't at all. Much more of a very light nude. It also has shimmer which I dislike and a very strong sugary scent which I find very unpleasant. I can't comment on longevity as I wiped it off straight away. Unfortunately can't return for obvious hygiene reasons.
