New Maybelline Vivid Matte Lipsticks India, Price, Shades, Swatches

Hi guys,

So ever since I saw the new Maybelline Vivid Matte Lipsticks on Habbana, about a week ago, I was itching to get my hands on them! Finally I went shopping today and saw them at Lifestyle stores.

First of all, I am not happy with the fact that only 4 shades are launched in India, same as the Rebel Bouquet, Bold Mat and Pink Alert, why only 4-5 shades get launched in India where as US has almost 10-12 in each range :/ So unfair.

They are named Vivid1 to Vivid4 but thankfully they also have names this time!

Shades:

• Vivid1 Scarlet Red
• Vivid2 Neon Pink
• Vivid3 Violet Pink
• Vivid4 Rosy Orange

MRP: Rs.475/- for 3.9g

It comes in a sheer red cap and black base packaging, all the lipsticks have the same packaging unfortunately, the base is pink and red though shade wise.

The finish is glossy which turns into semi matte exactly like the Bold Mat lipsticks. Also if you notice Vivid 1, 3 and 4 have some shimmer, so the finish is more glossy.

Vivid1 Scarlet Red is a cool toned bright red

Vivid2 Neon Pink is cool toned bright candy pink

Vivid3 Violet Pink is a deeper pink with purple undertones

Vivid4 Rosy Orange is a warm orange red.

Now both Bold Mat and Pink Alert were priced at Rs.375 when they launched, then I believe they increased it to Rs.425. I don’t know why this range is priced at Rs.475/-, coz the qty being same, the price of Rs.400-425 was just perfect for this. Not happy with the additional rise, although not much, Maybelline is supposed to be the most economical brand, and I hope it stays that way.

Vivid2 Neon Pink is I believe the shade named Fuchsia Flash in US (which is supposed to be MAC Candy Yum Yum dupe) and Vivid3 Violet Pink is the shade named Vivid Rose.

I did not find the red and orange to be very different, I liked both the pinks though, both are quite unique and fabulous. I tried both of them on me and picked up one, coz I felt one shade was pretty dupable in my stash.

Guess which one I picked 😀

Have you seen the new Maybelline Vivid Matte Lipsticks yet? Which one did you like?
