The £8.99 Lipstick The Team & Miley Cyrus Love

There’s a certain satisfaction in finding a lipstick that looks expensive, feels comfortable and doesn’t require a mirror for flawless application. Maybelline’s new Serum Lipstick ticks every box. At £8.99, it also delivers the kind of pay-off you’d expect from something far pricier – which explains why it’s become a go-to for A-listers like Miley Cyrus. Here’s everything you need to know…

THE HYPE

After years of glosses and balms, lipstick is firmly back on top. But while beauty fans might be craving more colour, they’re not willing to compromise on comfort. Maybelline’s answer? A serum-infused lipstick that delivers saturated pigment with skincare-level care. It’s the perfect hybrid formula – polished but unfussy – and at £8.99, it won’t break the bank.

THE FORMULA

The texture is what makes this lipstick different. Infused with hyaluronic acid, the formula delivers up to eight hours of plumping moisture, while laying down rich, even colour. It glides on with the slip of a balm but holds its own like a traditional lipstick – no dragging, no patchiness, no uncomfortable dryness by mid-afternoon.

The finish strikes the perfect balance. Matte shades feel soft and velvety rather than flat, while the satins offer a subtle sheen that catches the light without veering too far into glossy. The result? Lips that look smooth, defined and slightly fuller.

THE SHADES

With 16 shades available, spanning everything from wearable nudes to modern pinks and classic reds, the range still feels tightly edited rather than overwhelming. Undertones have been carefully calibrated, which means finding a flattering match is easy.

THE VERDICT

"I’m picky about nude lipsticks but this one hits the sweet spot. It has that balmy glide on first swipe, then settles into a polished, long-lasting finish. With the liner, it gives my lips a softly sculpted, fuller look that still feels comfortable. 'Maybe It’s’ is my go-to shade." – Sapna Rao, Deputy Editor

"I’ve always been a lipstick-and-lip-liner girl and I’m permanently on the hunt for the perfect nude. This one ticks every box: hydrating, richly pigmented, long-lasting and the dream shade. Plus, there’s a matching liner to complete the look." –Mia Luckie, Director Of Marketing & Innovation

"Trust me when I say ‘Crop Top’ paired with the matching liner is the perfect combo: hydrating, smooth and quietly plumping. The liner adds just enough definition to make your lips look fuller, polished and put-together in seconds." – Daisy Reed, Head Of Social
