Annabelle Twist Up Retractable Lipstick Crayon

I love Annabelle Cosmetics and this lipstick is a new fav for me. I've tried 3 different colours and they all apply great. They aren't very drying, they are very pigmented and they're almost matte with a bit of shine and gloss to them so your lips don't get dry as much. I've gotten compliments on "Kinky Pink" which is my favourite of the colours I've tried but the range has great colours. You do get a bit of transfer but they aren't a stain so you can't complain much, it's just about the same wear as a lipstick. I find that even when it's wearing a bit and seems nearly gone I still have a nice pop of colour on my lips which I like. It doesn't have a bad taste or smell or a scent that's over the top(like some).

They are nearly $10 which may be much for a drugstore lipstick but it doesn't hurt to try something new. I definitely recommend them!

Not being a fan of lipstick (I am more of a gloss kind of girl), I had been looking for a good compromise that would not feel too heavy on my lips, but would still provide colour and hydratation. I think I found my match in the Twistup which I bought in the Flirtini shade.

Application is easy and no need to trace your lips beforehand, which is one of the reasons why I did not like lipstick. The color Flirtini is really great, a nice red with a tint of pink. I feel like this is great quality, however you obviously get some transfer on your glass when you drink, etc. but I guess the product does not pretend to be stain-free anyway.

I bought it for 9.59$ which I found to be a little expensive, might wait for a sale next time I buy one, but I will definitely buy another soon as I why to try more colors and the product is great!

Even though this looks like a crayon, it goes on and it feels like a lipstick. At first, I wasn't thrilled with the whole idea of a pencil lipstick but it's actually easy to apply and easy to line and fill your lips.

The crayons come in a whole bunch of colours and are very pigmented. They're mostly semi-matte with a bit of sheen. Because they have a bit of gloss to them, they aren't overly drying.

The only complaint I have is that they don't last very long. Especially when you're like me and you are constantly eating/drinking. I have to reapply several times a day, though this isn't very different than any other lipstick.
