Review: New Maybelline Watershine Pure Lipstick R22

September 28, 2009 Paris B 15 Comments

Remember how I loved my Dragonfly Red in Maybelline Watershine lipstick? Well, it disappeared. Yep, nowhere to be found whether in my bag or lipstick box. But its Maybelline i.e. affordable so I got a replacement in the new Maybelline Watershine Pure lipstick in R22. No nice new name 🙁 So I’m going to call it Dragonfly Red – the Sequel 😀

The color in the tube is a bright red. However, since this is a watershine texture, do not fret – swiped on the lips, its a sheer red that leaves lips looking plump and glossy. Did I mention I love how it looks?

The Maybelline Watershine Pure lipstick is the newest incarnation of the popular Watershine range. We’ve had Watershine with collagen and now Maybelline infuses their watershine range of lipsticks with pure water.

I like wearing the Maybelline Watershine Pure lipstick on its own. R22 brightens up my face yet does not make me look as vampy as other red lipsticks do. Very work friendly. My lips do not dry out and its just lovely! I do hope I don’t lose this one!

The Maybelline Watershine Pure lipsticks come in 17 shades – I find the pinks and nudes go on lips like nothing so this would be a good time to experiment with darker or brighter colours. Its sheer enough so you don’t have to worry if you aren’t used to strong colours. The lipsticks retail for RM24.90 but you and I know it goes on sale often so keep an eye out then. 😉

Pros: Light texture, Glossy look, Does not dry out lips, Sheer colour, Inexpensive

Cons: None

You know I like rose and red shades of lipsticks – whats your favourite shade and have you tried the Maybelline Watershine Pure or any Watershine lipstick?

Stay beautiful,

Paris B

      Glad you like it too! I’ve always had a soft spot for Maybelline lipsticks 🙂

    Hmmm, it is still available in M’sia? Know something… … I can’t find Watershine anywhere in Singapore right now! =((( I like this range too. But it seems that Watsons has took off every single one from the Maybelline counters to make space for the display of their latest Total Clean Makeup Removers and Hydra skincare ranges.

    I am so sad. I have been to a few branches of Watsons ever since it disappear all of a sudden. But my search is futile.

    To think the advertisement for this new improved version just appeared over 2 pages in our magazines a couple of months back.

      Hi Shay

      The trick is to find the right shade of red. Once you do, you’ll pull it off with no problems 🙂

    LOL @ “Dragonfly Red – the Sequel”

    I love your reviews…even before i finish reading them 😛

    Maybelline used to be lousy but their newer products are starting to impress me (eapecially their price XD). Angelfit blusher/liquid foundation, Diamond Glow e/s and now this lippie :). I’m moving away from my craze of Japanese makeup (and all things glittery) towards Maybelline for the aformentioned products.

      Hi Irene

      I’m glad you’re enjoying the reviews – as much as I enjoy writing them anyway – what a great outlet 🙂 I must agree that Maybelline has vastly improved in quality. Their new stuff are pretty impressive – it must be all that Japanese influence 🙂

For the base I think the key is the Nars setting powder which is basically a silica powder. Many brands have similar white powder for setting. I did this same look yesterday and it barely budged/faded by evening. Only lipstick needed a little topping up 😊 

And this is about all the makeup I can handle these days 😂 no eye makeup cos I can’t be arsed 🤪

Posting for posterity because I like this photo 😆 Also hello! 😜

It’s interesting that when I meet people they always ask me “Are you still blogging?” which tells me they don’t read my blog anymore (cos if they did they’d know I am lol! Weekly generally, but still writing) Yet I don’t blame them because a lot of social credit is placed on one’s Instagram presence. This I fear, is an area I am lacking. I pop in every now and then, share stories that are totally unrelated to what people follow me for, then wonder why they unfollow lol! Other times, spider webs gather in the corners of my unused account. I don’t blame them. Not everyone wants to know what my dogs are up to 😜

Anyway I make no apologies. It’s ok if you follow. It’s ok if you don’t. It’s ok if you’re interested in stuff I do. It’s ok if you’re not. Life goes on for both you and I and ultimately, we just both want it to be happy. So do what makes you happy 😊 I’ll still share my beauty finds and I still blog once a week. I may share what I’m up to from time to time, or I may not. I can tell you that I’m keeping busy and that I have a lot on my plate, none of it glamorous unlike that of most content creators/influencers. It’s too boring for most for me to share here so I’ll just share the good bits - as Instagram intended 😂

But if you want to find me, you’ll know how 😊

The review for the product is somewhere on the blog mywomenstuff.com
Yes I know many of you are terrified of lizards 🦎🫣

But I liked this sunscreen - for the body. Even though it left a white cast. Even though it is hard to remove. It kept my arms protected through a weekend of brutal sun exposure and I survived without burning! ✌🏻
