I'm really glad I tried this lip pen on a
night out before writing a review! I have wanted a dark pink/purple lip colour
for a while now. I prefer my lip colour to be matte so this one seemed like the
right one. I chose 'Color Sensational' by Maybelline in shade 380-Plum Flushed.
My first problem was that I feel like I'm
applying way more of the product to get the right colour than I should be, but
once I got the colour right I really loved it. It's more pink than I had wanted
but It still looked really nice (I didn't realise how dried out it made my lips
look until I saw pictures.)
Even with a colour protector over the top I
found that very quickly the colour would be almost all gone from my lips and I
would constantly be re-applying. I ended up going over the colour with another
lipstick my friend had half way through the night because I got so fed up with
re-applying only for it to come off straight away.
If the colour stayed on longer and if it applied
better, then I would be very happy with
the lip pen. It smells AMAZING (raspberry yum!) which though it isn't something
I look for was nice nonetheless. For
£5.99 I don't think it was very worth it. (waaaa)
What lip pens have you tried that have been
good?
