The formula is super pigmented and matte, you get an intense colour pay off in one swipe. It comes with a sharpener and is easy to sharpen and use, the clean point gives a nice edge to define the lips.
These are not transfer proof, but they stay pretty long. It has stayed on me for 5-6 hours minimum and fades after a full complete meal. It doesn’t vanish completely, but just fades and you can easily reapply it.
12 Baby Houseman is described as Deep Pink. It’s a gorgeous plummy pink, something that will work for all skin tones, even dusky skin tones.
13 Murphy Brown is described as Chocolate Burgundy and it is exactly that. This shade is perfect for fall and again would work for all skin tones.
14 Violet Crawley is described as Smokey Violet. It is a medium violet with grey undertones, not something everyone would like or can carry. This one is also slightly streaky.
Here are the swatches..
L-R: Baby Houseman, Murphy Brown, Violet Crawley
I love 12 and 13, would recommend getting both! 12 Baby Houseman would also work really well with Indian festive looks.

They come in a standard lip crayon packaging, the difference between these and the Pout Perfect ones in terms of packaging is that Pout Perfect has a matching colour cap according to shade while this only has the bottom colour coded with a black cap and Pout Perfect doesn’t come with a sharpener, you need to buy it separately and this one does.
They have a smooth, velvet finish and glide on effortlessly as claimed. They have a velvet matte finish and are very comfortable on the lips. Everything as per claims.
These are not transfer proof and stay for about 5-6 hours without eating or drinking. These do not emphasize dry lips or fine lines, however you would need exfoliated lips before wearing these like any matte lipstick.
L-R: Kiss N Tell, Purple Punk, Fired Up, Lacy Luck, Jade Rose, Mocha Sin, Twilight Dreams, Call Me Scarlet
I have swatched all the new 8 shades here.
Kiss N Tell is a cool toned apple red, very flattering on all skin tones. I absolutely love this red on me.
Purple Punk is an aubergine purple, but this one is not super opaque like the rest. Slightly patchy
Fired Up is a bright tangerine orange, kind of patchy. Mostly such bright oranges are patchy across brands, I guess it’s the colour pigment.
Lacy Luck is a neutral brown, an everyday wear shade, would work for fair to medium skin tones
Jade Rose is my absolute favourite, a pink brown. It would work for all skin tones, an MLBB for deeper skin tones.
Mocha Sin is a very cool toned grey brown.
Twilight Dreams is another favourite, a deep berry brown shade without red undertones. A perfect fall shade.
Call Me Scarlet is a warm toned red, again suitable for all skin tones.
Apart from the light neutrals, all shades would work across skin tones. And I am glad they launched an interesting mix of shades.
My favourites are Lacy Luck, Jade Rose and Twilight Dreams. Also both the reds are quite pretty, and a matte red lipstick never goes out of trend.
Overall, I do like the lipsticks. Formula is great, shades are nice, very comfortable on the lips. I do recommend these.

So I received this Sugar Cosmetics Matte As Hell Lip Crayon last week, I have tried their Eye Told You So Eyeliner before which was a part of Fab Bag and quite liked it. Matte Lip Crayons are all the rage right now and I am glad they have come up with these and some interesting 4 shades. I have a lot of reds and pinks in Lakme Absolute Matte Lip Tint and Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balms, so I wanted to go for either nude or wine. Since it is fall/winter already which is perfect for deep burgundy/wine/berry shades, I went with Poison Ivy which is a beautiful berry wine shade.
It comes in this black fat crayon packaging with the base matching the shade. Sadly it is not retractable and one has has to sharpen it which leads to quite a lot of product wastage. Other than that, it is quite travel friendly.
Coming to the texture, it is very, very creamy and buttery. It glides on easily on the lips but that also means it does bleed and go out of the lines easily, so one has to be careful while applying. It is very pigmented and covers the entire lip well in 2 swipes.
It is on the creamier side and not completely matte, even after some time, you won’t see or feel a complete matte finish. It is not transfer proof and transfers a lot on cups, bottles, etc.
Staying power is ok, it stays for 4-5 hours without eating or drinking, but just 2-3 hours if you eat or drink and will fade and transfer while eating or drinking.
It does feel very light and comfortable on the lips. It is quite moisturising and will work on dry lips too, quite forgiving.
Poison Ivy is a beautiful wine/berry shade and perfect for this season, definitely a unique shade and not that other brands have in this category.
Price wise it is definitely priced higher. At 800, it is more expensive than Lakme too which is priced at 650 and offers 3.5g. I have not sharpened it yet, so not sure how long this would last, the qty is reasonable.
Overall I would say I am not very happy with the staying power and transferring, though these are moisturising and light. Also these are priced higher than other brands in this category and the qty too is lesser than them. But what Sugar Cosmetics Matte As Hell Lip Crayon has, are two shades nude and wine i.e.Holly Golightly and Poison Ivy which other brands do not. So if you want a matte nude and/or wine lip crayon, I would suggest checking this out. For reds or pinks, I would suggest other brands. But if you have dry lips and are looking for matte yet creamy and moisturising lip crayon, then go for this.
You can buy it from their own website HERE or on the Fab Bag website HERE.
