THE VERDICT:
Inclusivity is a huge marketing come-on for beauty brands nowadays and while everyone is focusing on foundations, powders, and concealers, Maybelline chose lipstick, took the good ol' concept of the 'universal lippie', injected inclusivity, and the new Color Sensational Made For All lipstick line is born.
Are these shades really made for all, especially on warm skin? Let's find out.

For starters, Color Sensational Made For All is a lipstick line that's comprised of the timeless lipstick shades: Red, Pink, Mauve, Fuchsia, Ruby, Plum, and Brown, but with a twist: Maybelline said that they tested all the shades on 50 women with varying skin tones to come up with a universal shade that will match for all. When I first saw the promotional posters for this collection, I thought that Maybelline will come out with 50 shades of each (le gasp!), but this turns out to be a much better idea because 50 shades of each color will only end up overwhelming the consumer.
L-R: Fuchsia for me, Spice for me, Red for me (matte), Ruby for me, Mauve for me, Plum for me, and Pink for me.

Does this lipstick line live up to its claim? I'm morena and let's see if these will really fit my skin tone, especially Pink and Mauve, the lightest in the collection.
FUCHSIA FOR ME
- midtone blue- based fuchsia
MAUVE FOR ME
- Mauvey beige
PINK FOR ME
- Mauvey pink with a hint of lavender
PLUM FOR ME
- Deep rosy plum
RED FOR ME (MATTE)
- bright, blue- based red
RUBY FOR ME
- Ruby red with a touch of bordeaux
SPICE FOR ME
- Nutty brown
The colors are classic and will definitely find a spot in any woman's makeup kit. I'd say that the collection is 95% accurate because Pink For Me is a little on the cool side, but so far, everything else looks good on my skin tone!
Is Color Sensational Made For All made for all skin tones? Looks like it! The secret here, I believe, is the usage of blue- based pigments and not so cool and not so warm hues to hit the spot; as you can see, all shades are in the midtone range; there's nothing too bright and too warm, which made the shades suitable for a lot (if not all) skin tones.
Love the concept; it's taking the 'universal lippie' concept to the centerstage and frankly, it makes the job easier because bottomline, we just want a lipstick that will suit our skin tone!
