Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Stain

Packaging:

Thick satin plastic tube with cap. Each shade has it's corresponding colour as the tube colour with a silver end. In this case it's a light mauve pink with silver text. The bottom of the tube winds the chubby pencil up/down. The end does come softly pointed but does wear down flatter.

Smell:

Peppermint which I dont particularly like as it reminds me alot of the strong after dinner chocolate mints.

Colour:

001 Honey Douche - more mauve and deeper in the tube compared to the outside packaging but this was the lightest shade of the range I had available to me. Sheer pigmentation with a sheen finish.  The sheen does wear off once the lips come into contact with something else. Available in 10 colours.

Formula/ Texture:

It's a thin, smooth and lightweight texture. It glides on easily. The chubbiness of the crayon adds to the foolproof ability of applying this. I don't think these are nourishing but the sheen on them does make them feel as though they are.

These chubby lip pencils are a big trend in the beauty world, the ease of application with consumers and variety from the brands. Essentially what these are, fuse the conditioning of a lipbalm with the staying power and pigmentation of a lipstick with the texture of a gloss all in a chubby crayon.

As I mentioned before the tip of this is very soft and wears down flat, however I don't feel this is something that needs sharpening at all. The coverage on this is medium and defiantly buildable to full. I do find the staying power and 'stain' aspect of the colour itself to be true, lasting 8hrs. Applying this every so often throughout the day does wear off into the night. It does take a little effort to remove this with a basic makeup wipe. The lips are truley stained even after a shower!

There's a little feathering and settling into the lip lines. If you don't want a truly lip stain then this is for you.
