ColourPop Pencil Review

This pencil is affordable and works well. It applies smoothly and doesn't dry out my lips. Comes in a large range of colours and it's super easy to find a matching liquid colour. Easy to apply, doesn't smudge and lasts all day. It obviously isn't as good as other more expensive lip pencils, but for the money you are paying it is good value.

There’s nothing really jaw-dropping about these pencils for me. They’re pigmented, long wearing and glide on like a dream but other than that they’re just your usual lip liner. I don’t think they’re a must-have unless you like to co-ordinate your pencils with the corresponding Colourpop Lippie Stix but I can find dupes in my existing collection.

What I love most about these pencils is probably the formulation - it’s a beautiful creamy formula that sits comfortably on the lips and is non-drying. I do like the price point of $USD5.00 (i.e. $NZD7.50 depending on the exchange rate) compared to some other brands that charge an arm and a leg for a creamy formula but drying after a few hours. I do feel that the pencils help to really seal in the colour when used in conjunction with the lippie stix - better than if using a different lip pencil but could I live without it? Absolutely. I think the staying power is quite good – because they're creamy they tend to bleed so I spend more time cleaning up as opposed to touching up.

The pencils are the same build as the NYX Slim Pencils but they sharpen like a MAC pencil which is what annoys me most. When you sharpen the pencil it’s kind of a stubby point so don’t expect precision after the first use – I sharpened it just now to be sure haha. The white packaging is lovely but the ones that are in rotation right now have marks on them; no big deal but if you’re wanting them to stay clean you may want to keep them separate from the other makeup items.

Lumiere is a beautiful mauve rose shade and you can definitely wear the lip pencil on its own and going forward I’ll probably just repurchase either the pencil or the lippie stix I don’t need both. I bought mine from Colourpop using Shipito – they ship direct to NZ too (based on weight) but it worked out cheaper for me to get free shipping in the US (over certain amount) and pay for shipping costs in one go together with other parcels.

Another product from the well-known brand colour pop.

This product is basically a lip liner. It comes in a plastic cylinder container, and it retractable. The packaging does feel really cheap, but when you only pay $5 (USD) for a product, you can't really expect a whole lot more.

I only have two of these pencils and i beleive the colours are lumiere and bound. Both beautiufl colours, one more purple, and the other more brown. The reason i chose these liners were because that match the lippie stix i have and they are also quite neutral tones so i can match them with other lipstick as well.

I find these liners are creamy, and easy to apply without tugging. They just glide over my lips. Because the pencil is shaped like a pencil, its pretty easiy to draw a precise line. Sometimes i use the lip liner as a all-over base for my lips and i find this really makes the lippie stix long lasting, but using it just like a lip-liner increases wear as well.

Overall, a decent product but not really something i would rush to repurchase. These are nice, but nothing incredible. But for the price, they are worth trying.

These lip pencils are lovely and creamy. I love that you can buy the matching liner to the lipstick and they glide on so smoothly. Affordable if ordered with a bunch of stuff to save on postage but these aren't a must have. They come in a white outer pencil and are easily sharpened.

these are super handy to have to line lips but ive found its just as handy for a little hint of color if you cant be bothered busting out the whole kit.

They apply really easy, like, spreading soft butter on toast easy. The color payout is nice and even if it doesn't last long theyre pretty cheap. I kike that you can also almost always find a matching lipstick to it, or add a lip balm and it looks awesome.

Dislike having to sharpen them, and i supet dont like that the color falls out of its case or breaks, that drives me bananas. But theyre good and cheap so.. you get what you pay for? Would definitely repurchase!

Really excited to use these, as they had such a lovely shade range and at such a bargain price too! But I used this maybe for a couple of weeks if that and ran out of product. the liner its self was nice and convenient to use and take with me , but wouldn't repurchase due to minimal product.

Love shopping from Colourpop! Never had a problem with the company, shipping, or their products. These lip pencils come in a huge range of colours and you can usually find a matching liquid colour. They’re really easy to use and apply, and they stay in place for a long time. The lippie spreads with precision and doesn’t dry out on your lips. I’m so dumb though and couldn’t figure out how to sharpen mine for aaaages.. bit embarrassing.
