These are not new in the market, and I believe in Asia they are called Lip Polish, but seriously, I think the Elixirs have a better formula and color selection. According to Maybelline, they are lip glosses with hyper-saturated color and ultra cushiony feel, they are a cross between a lip gloss, a lip balm and a lip stain.
There are 20 shades available for this. The first shade I got is Vision in Violet, and while I do have Mauve Mystique (my favorite by the way!) I will just review the color Vision in Violet. It is a bright purple color and I think this is one of the most opaque shade from the line.
So this is how Vision in Violet looks on my lips:
What I like about this product:
- All in one product: lip gloss, lip balm and lip stain.
- It feels really comfortable on the lips.
- Lots of shades to choose from.
- Can be worn alone or under a lip liner/lip stick.
- Applicator is easy to use.
- Cute packaging.
What I didn't like about this product:
- Might be a bit pricey for ₱260.
- Opacity varies from shade to shade.
- Application might be a bit a streaky.
- Available online only, through Bon Marche.
Over all, I love this color and I love this line from Maybelline. As I have mentioned earlier, I got another shade which is Mauve Mystique and it is my go to lip color. It is like a no-brainer makeup product that you just swipe and go. I would love to try more shades of these! If you are interested in trying this baby, go ahead to Bon Marche, they have all shades available and in stock.
Note: This product was sent to me by Bon Marche for review, but everything was of my own and honest opinion.
Hope you enjoy this quick review. As always, I just wanted to go straight to the point and tell you if the product is worth it or not. Anyways, I will be posting more reviews soon (I have a lot of pending reviews in my "blogger" folder) so please watch out for it. Thank you so much for reading guys! Mwuah!

Woah. I don't think I will have enough confidence to be able to pull this off. It looks good on you, Ms. Maica. I'm jealous but I think I'll just stick with my lip balms :))
