During one of one too many visits to Boots I picked up a new lip product that is good enough to rival those from Nars, it is the Maybelline Color Drama Intense Velvet Lip Pencil, i chose Minimalist, which i would compare the colour to Nars' "Sex Machine" it is a perfect pinky nude with a subtle pink shimmer. It is a perfect everyday shade, it has just the right amount of warm and cool tones that would flatter any skin tone.
I must admit it isn't as smooth to apply as the Nars pencils but once its on it is a lovely colour which is very pigmented (especially the darker shades!) with a perfect velvet matt finish that is super long wearing.
These little pencils are packaged lovely, they look high end with the black pencil and the shade of the pencil at the end.
I must admit i have tried a quite a few lips pencils and often find myself disappointed with them but this little beauty was a great surprise, i know i will get a lot of use out of this little bad boy and have already got my eyes on a ton more colours!
Have you tried the Maybelline Color Drama Intense Velvet Lip Pencils yet?
Loved the picture you took those flowers look super stunning, anyway back to your post lol
ReplyDeleteThis looks like the colour I have been after for ages I have been wanting something matte finishing because the silky finish clumps around the lip line and looks horrid on me and makes me paranoid tht I look like a clown lol.
Great post xox
