So lately I've been seeing a bunch of these lip pencil thingys. I've tried a couple and honestly, I really prefer these over regular lip gloss mostly because I HATE sticky glosses and they dry out my lips and continue to be sticky. Most of these pencils don't dry out my lips and arn't sticky and still gives me the pigmented color I want and the shine you would get from a regular lip gloss. Heres a few I've tried:
This lip gloss pencil was bigger than I thought. The pencil itself was VERY creamy. However, once it settled, it turned kinda sticky like a normal gloss and that was it. I got this in Fushia-ristic! which is a hot pink color, although you cant tell its not that pigmented either. Returning this one for sure.
This gloss pencil was very creamy. It actually keeps my lips soft while the stickiness was to a minimum. I got this in Naked which is a nude ish color and it was actually pretty pigmented, I was surprised. I find that this pencil matches alot of my daily eye looks too, so thats a bonus.
NARS Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil $25, Sephora.com
This one is my favorite one (and the most expensive) but you get what you pay for. The colors come out really pigmented with the shine of a lip gloss minus the stickiness. I got this in Frivolous - iridescent seashell pink. It's a sheer pink ish nude color that gives my lips just the right amount of color for an everyday look. Love!
The matte version of the gloss one?
This GLOWS under a black light! Perfect for you ravers :)
