If you don’t feel like being all made-up to look fresh and blooming, you can wear just one makeup, a lipstick! A lipstick color can transform you and give you a different mood for the day. Have you tried wearing different shades each day for a week? Well, this latest lipstick collection from Maybelline can make you go gaga over the shades of pinks, reds, and plums!
Maybelline Rebel Bouquet by ColorSensational
I know as a girl, most of us feel so special receiving a bouquet of flowers! What more if you’ll get a fresh bouquet of lipsticks and roses? The moment this press kit was delivered, I posted it right away on my instagram account!
You may also want to watch my video review and swatches on my channel (Gen-zelTV) on YouTube:
The entire collection has 11 gorgeous and bold pastel shades to achieve that fierce and flirtatious look.
Packaging:
I love the bright coral cap matched with silver retractable tube. Each shade is coded with REB plus a number that you can easily remember. REB01 – REB12, without REB11 by the way. You can store them upside down so you can easily see the shade indicator at the bottom plus the lipstick code. I have Maybelline Color Sensational lipsticks and I find the packaging really sturdy after accidentally dropping them a couple of times at home and during makeup gigs.
Here are the 10 rebellious pastel shades in pinks, reds, and plums. They accidentally sent me two REB03 lipsticks so we’ll start the swatches with REB02 since I don’t have REB01.
Scent:
I have 4 Color Sensational Lipsticks that I got from the past months of BDJBox beauty boxes and they have this addicting vanilla scent. However, these Rebel Bouquet lipsticks are unscented. I love scented makeups but I think it’ll still be great since there are also makeup junkies who prefer unscented lippies.
Now, let’s start the swatchfest! First five shades are:

What I love:
♥ They are all pigmented, with or without lip liner. Each lipstick form the collection is infused with this new Bloom Technology making each shade opaque and bright.♥ Very moisturizing! Of course, I always advise to have your lips conditioned first with your favorite lip balm prior to any lipstick application to avoid chapped lips in the middle of the day but with these lipsticks from Rebel Bouquet collection, I can use them alone without lip balm. However when I know I have dry lips to begin with, I exfoliate first using a lip scrub, toothbrush, or just wet tissue.♥ Pretty long lasting! As long as I don't eat oily food and drink too much, it stays on for a couple of hours. They leave nice tint on my lips after around 4 hours, no eating nor drinking.♥ They make my lips looking healthy and plump without settling on the crevices. Once applied, the color looks so natural on my lips after 2-5 minutes of wearing.Concern:
Some shades can make my complexion and teeth brighter while there are also shades that I find my teeth looking yellowish and my complexion a bit gray, mostly when I wear coral shades and dark orange like REB12, so that’s my least favorite from this collection.
Overall:
I love this collection. You have a lot of choices plus you can mix colors too! Just pick the color that would suit your skin tone. It was kinda hard for me since I wear braces and there are really lipstick shades that can make me and my teeth look yellow that’s why I’m currently sticking to nudes, reds, pinks, and shades with blue undertone. For a price of P299.00 per tube, it’s a good deal. Pigmented, long-lasting, and moisturizing.
Let me know what shades you’re eyeing! I’m currently loving REB07 & REB08 (ultimate favorites), REB06 and REB10! 
These lipsticks are available in all Maybelline counters since June 1st.
