When the multicoloured Sleek Eau la la pencils first landed on my doorstep, I didn't think I'd get much use out of them. However when Vivanna posted about using the red as a lip pencil, it looked so nice that I decided to give a try myself:
There's no denying it's an eyecatching shade, but the orange based red is surprisingly easy to wear. The pencil has a creamy waxy feel, although there is some drag during application. It has a matte finish, but despite this, I didn't find it to be drying on the lips.
The pencil tip wears down quite quickly, so you will need to sharpen it each time you want to line the lips. However, like all Sleek products, it's nicely pigmented, and once applied, it will stay put for hours.
Have you tried any of the Eau la la pencils? What's your favourite red lip colour?
Love the color, though I don't like this kind of product, it makes mylips dry
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous isn't it. I don't usually go for matte finishes either, but this is surprisingly non drying on the lips x
DeleteDefinitely going to buy some of these for my kit,this colour is awesome and im loving matte finish lips at the mo :) x
ReplyDeleteThere are 20 shades to choose from, so happy shopping! x
DeleteThanks x
ReplyDeleteReally pretty! I've never tried a matte lip, but if I could buy Sleek products in the US without a crazy shipping fee I would definitely check these out!
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it too, it's a real shame Sleek aren't more easily available in the US x
DeleteThis looks great on the lips. I bought a dark brown - cocoa I think? With the intention of using it as a brow pencil but it was too warm xx
ReplyDeleteThanks. Annoying about your pencil though, can you use it as an eyeliner instead? x
DeleteWow, that color is amazing. I just did a post on my blog about matte lip colors. I am wanting to try this color.
