I just bought this today at London Drugs because I heard it was a very moisturizing lipstick and has a lot of cute colors. I was actually going to buy the Lust for Blush (because people said it was a dupe for MAC Frost Angel, my fav lipstick ever), but it turned out more purplely than MAC, I wasn't a big fan of Nicki Minaj Lips, so i bought the Pin Up Peach instead. The color is very cute and natural. It is more moisturizing and cheaper than other lipsticks. But the smell is kinda.. ew, it makes me dizzy after awhile. The packaging is cute and trendy. I like it.

I heard alotta great things about this product but I disagree. I don't like the way jt smells, it makes me dizzy. I have to put on quite a few layers til I see some color and it feels heavy on my lips.

This is my 3rd Color Whisper because these are just so amazingly comfortable. I like that they feel creamy but not heavy. I find that while they feel nice and soothing while you're wearing them, they don't alleviate any dryness on my lips. If you generally get chapped lips, you'll still be needing a balm under this.

Pin Up Peach is a sheer lipstick in a straightforward but gorgeous shade of peach. Sometimes peach lipsticks can be too chalky, too orange, whatever. This is so ridiculously flattering, it's just got to be one of the most universally flattering lip colors I've ever seen.

Just a bit about the packaging: while all the Color Whispers have different colored caps, the outside is absolutely no indicator of the color of the product itself. For example, the cap on Pin Up Peach is a transparent watermelon pink. Don't worry, it's warmer than that color. And these don't come sealed! So while you're able to actually check the color in the tube before you buy, I find that is so unsanitary. I know it's drug store makeup, but why on earth would Maybelline completely mislead people with the color of the cap, and then to not seal the product!? Bad, Maybelline! Bad!

I'm borderline obsessed with the Whisper right now! Lust for Blush was my first purchase...which started my obsession. Perfect with my fair skin and blue eyes. I don't mind having to reapply after 2 hours, because I love the look, feel and texture so much. Another color that makes blue eyes pop is Cherry On Top. Nice pigmentation, as well. I now have Lust For Blush, Rose Of Attraction, Coral Ambition, Cherry On Top & Pin Up Peach. It's unusual for me to love every color in a particular line equally...but I can almost say that about this line. My next purchase will be Pink Possibilities. If you like a weightless feel on your lips, you need to check these out.

Bought this at the recommendation of my favorite beauty blogger, Emily Eddington who does Beauty Broadcast on YouTube. It's a nice, moisturizing gloss balm and this color (Pin-Up Peach) has just enough color to enhance natural lip color on me. I have light-med skin, neutral undertone (maybe bordering on cool), green eyes and dark blonde highlighted hair. The color itself is a peachy-pink, but definitely does not show orange on me. Got it at Walmart for $7.86--it's Canada, therefore probably more than you'd pay across the border. The only reason I didn't give it a 5/5 across the board was the price. I tend to like lip colors I can put on without a mirror at my desk, and this fits the bill without breaking the bank.

I Bought this with hopes of finding a staple everyday lipcolor. I purchased @Walgreens in Pin Up Peach yesterday. My lips dry out easily; if i know i am going out i will make sure to moisturizer my lips all day long so my lipstick is flawless at night. Sadly i tried this product without chap stick underneath. Although i do like the color, by the end of the work day my lips looked like the Grand Canyon, I also found myself having to reapply often. Unless you plan on wearing chopstick underneath and constantly reapply, i don't exactly recommend. Anyone with lips that do not dry easily may like this.

Very nice peachy-soft orange shade. definitely very wearable, nice a sheer, but still has a good pop of color. I did find this to be a tad drying, and I had to reapply frequently. I've been in a lipstick rut for ages, either not wearing any, or sticking with nice safe pinks and mauve, or the occasional plum shade if i feel brazen. I'm pretty fair skinned, and I found this didn't over power me. I've tried several other orange, peach, and coral lipsticks, from mid end to drug store cheapies, and this is the first one I have found that I liked.

LOVE Color Whispers !!! I have 6 shades (yes, I'm crazy), and this one is my favorite. It adds a great pop of color to any look, and it's a must-have Spring color. It is pretty pigmented for a tinted balm, but with one swipe comes a peachy flush of color. It is very soft and moisturizing as well. Def will repurchase when this one runs out!

I bought this for around $3 with a coupon at Target and I would buy it if it was more because I LOVE IT. It has such a beautiful sheen to it when applied to the lips and is the perfect Spring shade. I cannot wait to rock this once Spring starts in a few days. I have the mauve shade as well and I am happy with that one too! Great pigmentation, lasting power, and feels amazing on the lips. Highly recommended!

I bought this on a whim at my local Walmart after I fell out of love with my Revlon Lip Butters - loved the color, but they dried my lips out. I bought this shade as I didn't have any peach-y shades.

In the tube, Pin Up Peach looks to be a medium peach-toned shade with a very fine golden sheen. It's quite pretty actually. As with the lip butters, this is a lighter shade so, on the lips, this doesn't pack quite as much of a punch. I actually like that. It gives my medium toned lips a very nice peach-y hue that works with my warm skin tone. It's very wearable for an every day look, but I also find the color to be buildable for a more fun, bright look. The shine is absolutely gorgeous as well. This is my favorite lip color for those days where all you want is a bit of powder and mascara.

The lasting power isn't amazing, but I'm not someone who minds reapplying lipcolor, especially an easy shade such as this. It goes on smoothly like a lip balm and doesn't dry out my lips like the Revlon Lip Butters do.

This product has a very light scent - like fruit loops! I actually like it. The scent isn't strong at all and I can only smell it if I actually make a point to smell the product.

The packaging is sleek and pretty. I do think it's more geared towards a younger crowd, though.

The only downside to this product is that I find that sometimes I can feel the 'shimmer' when applying. It's not particularly bothersome and it doesn't stop me from really liking this product. I can't wait to try more.

I really wanted to love this product, but it just didn't live up to my expectations (which aren't that hard to meet). I am quite pale (think Christina Ricci), and my lips are not very pigmented; however, this "peach" color turned up as pink on me, and I think it's because my lip color was more obvious underneath than it should have been. I realize it is a sheer product, but to not even get a peach color when your lips are pale? That's ridiculous. Also, it was VERY drying. If I buy something like this, I'm expecting it to do double-time as a balm as well. What a waste of money.

I really, really love the color of this product. It is a perfect, natural-looking pink that gives my lips a little extra oomph! I also LOVE that it smells like Fruit Loops cereal. The problem that I had with this product is that it is quite drying. It doesn't last for a long time on the lips, and while it was starting to leave my lips, my lips felt parched and flaky. I would suggest using a balm under this. It also leaves a bit of a stain, but this color is so natural that a stain wouldn't look too dramatic.

I have been waiting for a lip color like this for a long time! This is a lightweight, sheer lip color that does not overwhelm. It has great staying power and has somewhat of a lip stain like effect. I really have only qualm I have (and it's rather significant at that) is that this product seems rather drying, and coupled with the lip stain effect, it can really emphasize flaky lips. I try to counteract this by exfoliating, and applying a good balm before applying the Color Whisper. Overall, I would recommend! I own this in four shades.

I'm obsessed with this beautiful peach color! This is my 1st whisper and I adore it! I love the gloss look it gives off and my lips feel great with this on too! Im NC20-25 with pigmented lips n this is a score! These r more pigmented than Revlons lip butters, which is great for this new to lipstick girl. Love the formula of these lil guys, next I want Lust for Blush.

Pin Up Peach is a cross between peach and coral. It's the perfect shade for that lovely pop of color during the spring/summer, and it's looks fantastic on my NC30-35 skintone! Although I should mention that lipsticks look different on different people depending on how pigmented your lips are and what your natural lip color is. I have medium-pigmented lips and Pin Up Peach turned out to have light-to-medium pigmentation on me, but it's buildable to medium pigmentation.
It delivers a glossy finish.
For the most part the formula is very smooth and lightweight. It only lasts a few hours on me, but I don't mind reapplication. It's not moisturizing, nor is it drying, so if you have chapped lips then please wear a balm underneath!
Please note that Maybelline does not claim these to be pigmented, nor do they claim these to be moisturizing.
They retail for $6-$7 each.
Would I repurchase? Yes.
