About a month ago Maybelline released some shades to their existing make up line, I'm not sure if this is their new fall collection but, all the new colors are limited edition so pickings are very slim. I really love the new colors to the lipsticks and eye shadows but, my favorite is the blush. Usually drug store make up companies come out with colors that have more fair skinned people in mind if you know what I mean. Take Neutrogena for example, the darkest shade in their make up is tan and even that color looks to light for someone with a skin tone like Beyonce. The best thing about these new colors is that all women no matter what skin tone can wear everything and that's rare for drug store make up. By the way, I was only able to find these at Walgreen's, CVS didn't carry it and I don't have a Rite Aide in my area so, lets get on with the review (if you want swatches just leave a comment).
Maybelline New York Blush

| 805 Ravishing Rouge |
This is such a beautiful color and very pigmented, you can actually use this as an eye shadow. This blush isn't powdery at all, it last all day, & since it is so pigmented you need to use a light hand when applying this to the cheeks. Maybelline really hit the ball out the park with this blush because there isn't many drug store brand blushes that's this dark & works well for women of color. This can be a very dupable color when it comes to high-end make up but with drug store make up not so in fact, the La Femme blush in the color bordeaux is really close but it has a little shimmer to it and the maybelline blush is a satin/matte finish. In all, this is a great blush I just wish it was a permanent color.

| 202 Mythical Mermaid |

| 805 Strut it Suede |
These are some of maybellines best eye shadows, I have almost all of the quad colors that are permanent and when I seen that they came out with some new colors I was so happy. There were a total of 4 new quads but these 3 stood out to me the most especially the strut it suede because it has a matte shade. If your familiar with the other shades to this line of eye shadows then you know that their all shimmery but, this is the only quad that has a matte shade and I love it.

| 980 Plum Jewel |

| 130 Fruit Punch |
I love the new colors, they're perfect for the fall because of the jewel tones. Of course my favorite is the purple color called amethyst ablaze, it's so pretty I had to buy a backup. I felt bad because maybelline only made 4 lipsticks per color so after the two I bought there was only two left, oh well. My least favorite is fruit punch, not because of the color but of the formula. It's not really a lipstick but more of a sheer lip tint, it's okay but I really don't like it so, I will most likely give this to my cousin. In all I love these lipstick, I have other colors in this line of lipstick so these are no stranger to me.
