    Good Lip Pencil

    The color is a “Perfect Red”. It’s a perfect blend between dark and bright red. The pencil is easy to use and the product glides easily and does not crack up over time. Does not dry out the lips.

    Love it!

    I bought the lip pencil recently and have been addicted ever since. The color goes on smoothly and tends to last for a few hours even when I eat. Theres a huge variety of colors to choose from that go with all skin tones.

    I have this lipstick in the shade Cruella, an AMAZING red! Super long lasting, but a little drying for my lips. It doesn't really bother me, 'cause the color is so rich and the finish is really matte, not like many other "matte" lipsticks. I just don't apply it many days in a row, especially in the Winter. And 'cause it's a pencil, you don't need to put a lip liner and a brush in your bag. That's a big plus!

    Beautiful colour and texture! For those with dry lips like myself though, it is absolutely essential to apply a moisturizer before wear. Love the applicator for this lip product; allows you to be very precise in your use! Does not need to be used with a lip liner but provides the same effect. Long wearing and effective! Looks even more fabulous with a shimmer gloss layered on top.

    Like many others I received this as a Birthday gift from sephora. It is a great universal red colour managing to look great on both warm and cool toned skin. It applies very easily as a pencil shape and with great creaminess. The pigmentation is very strong as well. I know that these pencils can be sharpened to continue using the product, but I only wish it would fit into a regular size sharpener so I wouldn't have to buy a new one just for this lip product. Definitely a pricey product but the quality does live up to the brand.

    I received this from Sephora as a birthday gift and it is one of the lipsticks I reach for when I'm looking to add an easy wash of color. It can easily go on as a bold red lip color but what I love about it is that I can also wear a light coat. Additionally, as it fades during the day, it leaves a slight stain which I love. The price is on the higher end in terms of lipsticks but I think if you're looking for a classic red lipstick, this is worth that investment.
    I do hope that they decide to make these twist up pencils because I hate the wasted product when sharpening.

    This Lip Pencil is really expensive, but it's good. It stays on forever (at least this colour because I have a different shade besides this one and it doesn't last as long). This shade is too dark though but if you wan to go for a bold look then this is a must have. It also dries your lips a bit :/ but you can feel free to drink and eat anything and it won't smudge or come off. :)

    I LOVE this lipstick! I use it to cover my lips, and i love that it's a matte lipstick but that the colour is so bold! I had received a sample size (which is almost as big as the full size) from Sephora, and fell in love with the colour, the texture, how matte it is, etc.

    I think the biggest deterent for me to purchase the full size is the price. It is really expensive for such a small format! Plus there is no way to sharpen it...

    Very pigmented and a comfortable wear. My lips tend to feel dry easily, but this didnt seem to dry them out any more than if I hadn't been wearing it.
