THOUGHTS

April 5th, 2017: This is a very silky smooth and creamy lip crayon that just glides onto the lips...very easy to apply. It's also very hydrating and moisturizing and feels really comfortable on the lips. Beautiful warm pinky coral shade that is perfect for the spring/summer and everyday. You can do a sheer layer, or build it up to be full coverage...or you can do a sheer layer and just build up the layers on the inner lip to do the oh so popular Korean gradient lip.

Not super long lasting, but it's easy to apply and take around with you so not a big deal. I don't mind reapplying...much prefer to reapply vs. wearing a long wear dry matte lippie, as comfort is a priority for me. This does wear off from the inside out and can look like you just lined your lips and forgot to fill them in, especially after you've eaten, but because this is so creamy you can just rub your lips together to redistribute the product and make it look presentable if you're not able to touch up right away.

This is expensive for what it is, but it is a really nice creamy comfortable lippie so if you can find it on sale or don't mind spending the bucks then I say go for it...unless you're the opposite of me and love a drier matte lip formula. In that case, stay away.
