Pat McGrath launched a brand new lip pencil referred to as the Dramatique Mega Lip Pencil ($29 every). These are in a big pencil format that require sharpening. They’re accessible at Ulta Magnificence, Sephora and Pat McGrath Labs.
I actually love these. Colours for each single shade I attempted is totally gorgeous. Method is creamy and straightforward to use with a matte end. They glide onto the lips with none tugging and the protection is easy and opaque. As soon as they set on the lips they’ve spectacular lasting energy and these are among the many few lip merchandise that don’t switch to my tooth in any respect. They’re not 100% transfer-proof however the switch to a cup or serviette is minimal as soon as it units on the lips. I additionally like that they really feel comparatively weightless on the lips which is a large plus particularly in scorching summer time months.
I do want they have been in a twist up formulation or got here with a sharpener, however for a matte lip formulation I actually do like these. They’ll look a bit dry when you’ve got dry lips, however this may be fastened with a lip balm or primer. When you haven’t tried the MAC Prep + Prime Lip Primer I believe you have to. It’s the finest lip primer that helps easy the lip floor, provides a lightweight veil of moisture and actually helps lipsticks go on smoother with out feathering.
Shades are all on level – I believe I can see myself carrying each single coloration (besides the pink although, since I hardly ever put on reds). A few of the neutrals look comparable swatched on the arm however on my lips there’s a transparent distinction in undertone. The darker shades will stain the lips however the lip primer is admittedly good in stopping the staining.

Coralust is a impartial peachy pink
Divine Rose is a heat mauve rose
Bare Seduction is a heat dusty rose
Nude Oasis is a heat brown rose
Flesh3 is a mahogany rose brown
Garnet Glow is a deeper wine shade
Belle Amour is a cool-toned berry with some fuchsia vibes (this coloration seems prefer it’s solely accessible at Pat McGrath on-line, I just like the Lip Fetish Balm coloration model of Belle Amour much more)
OBSESSED! is an electrical daring orange pink
I lip swatched a lot of the shades beneath, additionally carrying:
