Another lip crayon..no its not a recent one..as you all know..but I had not tried it before..it comes in 5-6 shades but only these 4 are available everywhere.

Comes in a normal swivel up packaging…and has matching outer body to the shades..

Its super glossy and balmy as the name goes..has a slight fruity smell.

Pomegranate Punch is the brightest and juiciest of all four shades..its a reddish pink..with some fine shimmer.

It stays on for 2-3 hours..the shine fades in an hour or so..but the color stays..and leaves a tint behind.

Here is it on me..

Pros:

1. Nice packaging,

2. Easy to carry around.

3. Super glossy and moisturising..no need of a lip gloss or lip balm with this.

4. Quite pigmented.

5. Stays for 2-3 hours and leaves behind a tint.

6. Most reasonably priced lip crayon in the market.

Cons:

1. I would have loved more shades in this.

2. I wish it was sans shimmer.

Overall, its a nice buy..value for money..this shade Pomegranate Punch is the brightest and would look good on all skin tones..Recommend it !

Ingredients:


MRP: £3.00

So after the Revlon Kissable Balm Stain and Lakme Pop Tint, I tried the MUA Power Pout..


Packaging wise its exactly like the Revlon Balm Stain..retractable packaging with a cap and shade wise outer body..and even has that peppermint smell..and cooling feeling..


Texture wise, its veryy balmy..super glossy..its so much like a balm..that it melts and breaks..as you can see..more balmy than the Clinique Chubby Sticks too..it even repairs chapped or dry lips..

But color wise, its not as sheer as the Chubby sticks..and more pigmented..and once the glossiness settles, it gives a nice color..and stays for 3-4 hours and leaves behind a stain..

Crazy in Love is a bright juicy raspberry shade with some shimmer..I just love it..how it looks all glossy and juicy on the lips…I do not have a shade as fresh and juicy as this, in my stash..

Pros:

1. Super balmy and moisturising..it even heals dry lips.
2. Pigmented..and leaves behind a stain..not sheer kinds.
3. Super affordable.
4. Decent quantity.
5. 6 shades to choose from.
6. Love the shade..very fresh and brightens up the face.
7. Does not settle in fine lines.
8. Has castor seed oil, jojoba oil, shea butter and waxes in ingredients..so obviously works great as a balm too.

Cons:

1. Available online.
2. Melts and breaks.

Overall I love these..I wanted to try one but now I regret not getting all :p These are super balmy yet pigmented..and super affordable..Highly Recommend !
