I’ve been collecting lip glosses for as long as I can remember. I used to go to Walgreens when I first got my license and I’d spend long periods of time critiquing colors, brands, etc. but I always loved when I settled on a perfect color. And now the new Maybelline Color Elixer glosses are a slam dunk addition to my collection. Refinery29 asked me to try out the new glosses and I loved testing out three shades.  The colors are hyper-saturated and have the most amazing texture. I love a good pink lip so I was instantly drawn to the Fuchsia Flourish shade and think a pop of color on one’s pout in a mostly neutral outfit – especially on a gray day – is the perfect way to punch things up.

Outfit: Vince sweater, Rag & Bone denim + boots, BaubleBar necklace and rings, Rebecca Minkoff Jody Monogram clutch (c/o)
