I only have 2 shades from the actual "In the Buffs" line, and then another that I recently hauled that I think is possibly an addition to the original line. There are 10 shades in the original line, but the shades I have are "Blushing Beige", "Nude Lust", and the new one, "Ravishing Rose". All of these lipsticks retail for around $6 to $7 dollars, depending on where you go.
The packaging is pretty classic to Maybelline lipsticks, being a metal tube covered by a rectangular casing. The casing on these is like a peachy pink color. The casing on the new ones is also the same color and style, making it seem like they would be additions to the original line.
Here are some swatches on my hand before showing them on the lips!
(From Left to Right: Blushing Beige, Nude Lust, Ravishing Rose)
Blushing Beige!
As you can see, this color is almost a perfect nude color for my skin tone. However, usually when I wear this color out, I top it with a pink toned gloss, just so I don't look too washed out. For this review, I just used the lipstick on its own so you know exactly how it looks alone. Blushing Beige is just a nice lighter peachy nude, and I think would look good on fair to medium skin tones like myself.
Nude Lust!
This color was somewhat hard to capture on camera, because of the closeness in color with Blushing Beige. Nude Lust is a little bit more of a brown nude color, but is still very close in shade to Blushing Beige, so I think that fair to medium skin tones could also wear this shade as well.
Ravishing Rose!
This color is a lot brighter on the lips than I anticipated when I bought it, thinking it was part of the Buffs line. However, it is a really pretty color to wear in spring and summer because of that. If you look at the swatch on my hand I posted earlier, you can see how pink this color really is in comparison with the others. Nevertheless, I think it is a really pretty color and will definitely get some wear out of it come springtime!
All of these lipsticks are really good quality. They are really creamy on the lips and really pigmented. They do have that classic Maybelline lipstick smell, which I can't really describe, but if you have other Maybelline lipsticks in your collection, you know what i'm talking about. All in all I think these lipsticks are really nice for everyday wear and I would definitely recommend checking them out if you haven't already. (NOTE: They do have some deeper shades if you like more of a deep lip or are of darker skin tone, I just didn't pick any up because I didn't think I would wear the darker shades as much.)
I hope this review was helpful to those who are thinking of purchasing one of these lipsticks, and thank you to TwentyThirtyGlam who requested this review! Check out their channel for makeup/beauty videos as well!
