Maybelline Color Drama Intense Velvet Lip Pencil: Nude Perfection & Berry Much


Maybelline color drama intense velvet lip pencils/crayons are becoming a new favourite of mine (more so nude perfection). I got both of these recently in my christmas advent calendar my mum made me and I'm super happy I have them. They are a nice creamy/velvety texture crayon that you can apply to your lips just like a lip pencil/lipstick. They have a slight scent which I definitely don't mind I quite like it actually however I don't know how I would describe it... it's not too strong/overbearing. They have great colour pay off! And they are currently £4.99 in both Boots and Superdrug (buy here).

I first got nude perfection in my advent calendar and I have been completely obsessed with it ever since (from the 5th of December). I pretty much wear this nude everyday.. it's perfect! It's more of a browny toned nude which I don't really own anything similar to this so it definitely adds to my collection. I can tell I will be buying this again when it sadly runs out. If you want to see what this shade is like on you can view me wearing it over on our Instagram here

The second I got is berry much which is deep red with a hint of purple I would say. If you can tell from the picture it is slightly damaged as I literally dropped it just before taking the photo... very annoying. Although I love the texture of these lip pencils I don't know if I will be wearing this one often. I'm unsure whether I like the colour on me (swatch here) and I found that it smudged easily and went a bit everywhere during application. However I may learn to love this one as much as I do nude perfection.

Overall I am very happy about these and would definitely recommend them to people and will probably in the future pick up some more. I really want to try minimalist. Let me know what you guys think....

see you soon, han x
