You did not think that we were done with lip crayons, now did you?!!! Good, because it seems we have one more new crayon-kiddo entering the beauty scene in India, from the Faces brand this time. Now Faces has launched these beauties in 2 finishes - Matte, and Starry Matte ('with a touch of glitter') as per the brand. I am reviewing the Matte version here.
I have used the Faces Ultime Pro Long wear Matte lipsticks in the past and find them to have the best matte formula along with the Lakme Absolute Crème range. With the same hope, I picked up this product too. Okay, time to find out now...
Looks like the chubby crayon trend is here to stay! I remember when I was in college, my mom and me would go these little 'fancy stores' where they would have a variety of beauty and makeup stuff. Being not that brand-conscious those days, I would find these stick-type lipsticks in some corner of the shop belonging to some unknown, imported brand. My mom herself loves cosmetics and would buy them from me. And they actually used to turn out good and stay long enough. They were not as chubby as the ones now, though.
By the way, Lakme calls this a 'lip pout' in their official press release. But I did not find any such 'pout' written on the packaging anywhere. It just says 'Lip Tint Matte'. Am I missing something?? Anyway, I have both the words in the review title to avoid confusion.
