ColourPop Pencil Review

Colour pop was a huge hit last year with lots of Beauty addicts swarming to try this brand out. After trying their creamy shadows and lippie sticks I had to ge my hands on one of these pencils to try out. Im apart of a group that imports make up direct from these companys. I got an ultra matte liquid lipstick and this pencil.

This pencil is made of plastic and is white. The colour I chose is Bitchette. Its a deep burnt burgundy red lip liner. I have alot of dark red lipsticks and wanted to find a suitable liner. When I swatched this on my hand its creamy with a matte finish. Theres no scent at all. Be careful these do smudge specially this dark color. It is quite staining too.

Before I used this liner I like to go over my lips with the nyx wonder pencil . I found the precision with this liner excellent. The colour pay off is pigmented and rich. I find shapening this easy but it did smudge on the handle of my pencil which was a let down. Couldn't get it it out of the white.

Overall I think their supper affordable at $5 us. I think it's easier to jump on with a group as it reduces shipping costs. I found this lasted me all day without retouching and I wore it as as a full lip colour. It makes perfect outlines for my lipsticks. I would definately buy more. So far the best pencil in my collection to date.

I took a look into these after hearing the hype about them and other Colour Pop products. When looking at their selection I was impressed by the range of colours they have. There aren't that many ranges with that range of different colours so I was quite excited about that. My favourite shades would be dalia and punky. It is a good thing they have so many shades that you can't choose between at such an affordable prices because shipping is so pricey that you need to get several to make them worth buying.

Onto the lippie pencil itself. It is a good solid lip liner. It lasts for a good length of time and is well pigmented. To apply it was smooth and didn't dehydrate the lips, which is really important for me in a lip product. It also withstood eating lunch which many lip products don't.

The packaging is very clean and simple which is classy, but I don't think they advertise the need to sharpen aspect very well.

All in all a good product that I would love to see bought into stores instead of having to buy it online (I really don't like buying online).

Lumiere, oh Lumiere, how I love you Lumiere. I own all of KathleenLights' collaborated products with Colour Pop and honestly, I want to own everything. I don't have many lip pencils in general but because I wanted to support her, I did grab the pencil.

The reason why I was confused is because I thought it was an automatic, wind up pencil. No. You have to sharpen it. I was going to complain about the packaging not letting me wind it up, so thank goodness I was told this before listing the packaging as a con. I love these pencils. They're in slim, white packaging with the Colourpop logo and ingredients written on it in rainbow-silver and at the end it shows the colour that's inside.

Lumiere is a very pretty mauvy, pinky, rosey kind of shade. I feel like anyone could wear it and it would just look stunning. I've noticed on YouTube with other shades that the pencil and lippie sticks with the same names are noticeably different, but with Lumiere, I really can't tell the difference in shades. Is this a bad thing to me? Not at all. The pencil glides on smoothly and is definitely creamy, it helps with the lasting power of any lipstick you put on top of it and is also, in my opinion, the perfect shade for overlining the lips slightly. It smells kind of chemically but it's not noticeable, I just happened to take a sniff at it while writing this review because I'm a bizarre individual. Highly recommend these lip liners and at such an affordable price, you really don't have much to lose!

I adore these lipliners. Not only are colour pop cruelty free and super affordable, but these lipliners come in sooo many different colours, it's awesome. Also they're such a nice texture, nice and creamy and highly pigmented. They're ones you sharpen, which are my personal preference. I do find the 'led' part come loose and try to come out but it's never a big deal. Just be careful with them when opening etc so it doesn't fall out. When they're so cheap and good, I'm totally fine with it.

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.

I love all the colour pop lip liners, the formula is so creamy and luscious and just glides on like a breeze. Also there are so many colours to choose from. I own numerous lip liners by colour pop and love all of them. They are very good value for money and can compete with a lot of the expensive ones out there.

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.

I love these lipliners, they glide on easily and don't emphasise any lines or dryness on the lips. I have tried a number of drugstore lipliners and these are by far my favourite. I have the shades Skimpy and Bossy and I absolutely love both of them, Bossy matches perfectly to its corresponding Lippie Stix, and Skimpy is very similar to Cookie, but works nicely with Brink and on its own!

Especially the more 'crazy' colours! I love how pigmented and creamy they are though, and I find that Brills (lavender purple) goes excellently under MAC Kelly Osborne Dodgy Girl, for which I had been looking for a line to pair with since the day I bought it. ColourPop pencils are awesome.

I have the lip pencil in the shade Bad habit (matches to Mirror Mirror lippie stick). I was very impressed with this lip pencil! It is highly pigmented, soft and goes on smoothly. It doesn't drag on the lips either which is great. Its easy to get the pencil into the small parts of your lips so its super easy to apply and precise. They don't look like pencils but they are! So you can sharpen them as you normally would. This is perhaps my favourite lip pencil, its a shame you can only buy them online!
