So you are probably thinking what that thing is :pNo,its not a bullet nor a pen.Its the signature look of Ellis Faas Cosmetics.
When i first got this lippy, i wasn't really sure how to proceed lolAnyway, after months of using it, here's the review.
PACKAGE-
It comes in a very unique bullet shaped package.The pointed end is the lid while the base has a twist that you have to turn until you see the products coming out and then you wait a minute for the product to get absorbed on the sponge applicator.It also comes with an instruction leaflet on how to clean and take care of the applicator.
The Base also has the shade name and color on it.
WHAT IT CLAIMS-
A long-wear lipstick that provides pure colour, and a shiny finish that lasts overtime. Superior comfort both in application and on lips. Plumping actives improve hydration and smooth your lips.
WHY -
For classic definition: the texture of this highly pigmented,
covering lipstick gives great definition to your lips, both as a fully covering shade, but also as a mere stain.
ACTIVE INGREDIENTS -
Vitamin E (Tocopherol), Candelilla Wax, Prune Seed Extract.
HOW -
Apply Creamy Lips with the spongy applicator first by painting the lips with just a small amount of lipstick, then fully load the applicator to fill inside of the lips.
Creamy Lips is also great for a more stained effect: just load a tiny bit of the lipstick onto the applicator, apply and blot for a matte stain.
No scent. No taste. No parabens. No animal testing.

The Shade L101 is a very deep Blood red.It is bold and beautiful.But it does not light up the face.Instead it adds a sense of mystery.At the same time not OTT.It is very pigmented.But you need more than one swipe .Though it can be gradually build up.
It is really light and you can notice that you are wearing lipstick.
TEXTURE-
It is very creamy and the application is smooth(provided you have the right amount of lipstick on the applicator)
STAYING POWER-
It stays on for a really long time (upto 6-7 hours)It can withstand eating and drinking.Gets transfered a bit.And when it fades it leaves behind a tint.
