Now that we got the review of Maybelline Shine Shot Glassy Shine Topcoat and Prismatic Lip Topcoat out of the way we can move on to Maybelline Color Jolt Intense Lip Paint! Maybelline Color Jolt Intense Lip Paint is a new pigmented lip color (or liquid lipstick should you like to call it that) that launched with the Maybelline Summer 2016 Collection.

Color Jolt Intense Lip Paint will likely get likened to OCC Lip Tar across many reviews that you’ll be reading but personally, I think the formula is ten times better than Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics! OCC is a bit difficult to work with (well, not as much as it was when it was in a tube! The OCC RTW Lip Tar reboot definitely makes things easier) and tends to migrate plus the thicker formula isn’t for everyone. Maybelline brings the same great color pay off as OCC’s formula but in a thinner, easier to use formula that doesn’t migrate and isn’t difficult to apply in the least.

I love these and I highly urge you to run out and grab a few or all the shades! You won’t be disappointed.

NYX Plush Gel Lipstick ($6.99) is a new slick, gel formula lipstick that launched in 12 shades recently from NYX. As far as I’m concerned, every single lipstick formula should be a gel one!

I love the consistency, texture, and formula of this plus, let’s not forget about the price tag and don’t forget Ulta.com has a Buy 1, Get 1 50% off on select NYX this week! Score!

Now, I’m also in love with the new Sephora Rouge Balm! This is a new gel lipstick that Sephora recently launched that has a super creamy, hydrating texture. If you love that formula you’re sure to enjoy NYX Plush Gel Lipstick which is a thinner, slicker consistency with excellent color pay off.

Maybelline Shine Shot Glassy Shine Lip Topcoat ($5.99) is a new, super glossy topcoat lipgloss that can be worn alone or over your favorite lip color. Shine Shot recently launched with the Maybelline Summer 2016 Collection as a companion to the new Color Jolt Intense Lip Paints. On their own the Color Jolt formula has a satiny finish where as with Shine Shot on top you can get a lacquer-like finish that brings a ton of shine to the final finish of the lip color.

I’m a massive fan of the long gone Too Faced Mirror Mirror Lipgloss and I was quite excited about checking out Maybelline Shine Shot Glassy Shine Lip Topcoat, in the hope it would be like Mirror Mirror Lipgloss. Lucky enough, it is indeed quite similar to the texture, formula, and finish of it!
