I am in love with the lip products these days. Gone are the days when I was head over heels in love with eye shadows and pencils. Now it is the lips which making me want more and more. When I am in this phase, that's when the sale hits the town..err..the internet. I couldn't control myself but pamper myself with the self gifting scheme. lol.
I along with a friend, ordered some VIVO cosmetics and here I am with the first review of one of those products.
ie. VIVO Lip Crayon in Thing called Love.
What the website says about this:Available in six shades the NEW VIVO Colour Stain Lip Crayons bring both moisture and color to your lips! Relieve the dryness of your lips with the easy to apply sheer soft lip color.
Price and Quantity:
£3.99 but I got it for £1.99 (happy dance)
Ingredients:
Package:This is a lip crayon and it comes in a pencil form with a silver twist bottom. The whole package is made of plastic.
My Take on the product:When I laid my hands on this product, I had some mixed opinions. Like the package is in beige color and what I saw on the swatch was different. Well, to my surprise, the product is in peach color. It is silky smooth which simply glides on the lips.The application is easy. It looks similar to the Revlon just bitten kissable balm stain/Lakme pop tints. I feel the formula is same for all of them(I might be wrong too). This particular shade is a peach color which turns n*de on my pigmented lips and later settles into a soft pink shade. The transformation is amazing. It didn't dry out my lips. It instantly moisturizes my lips and gives glossy finish(without shimmers). It is very light in consistency. It doesn't stain the coffee cups(additional advantage)
It stays on for good 4 hours with light meal and drinks. Once it goes, it leaves a light pink tint which is a good thing in my case.It has mint flavour, which on application gives a cooling effect to the lips in turn a healthy look. What more you need in a lip crayon? I am in love with this and I want all the other variants too.
