ELF studio matte lip colour


'Natural' - Top, 'Coral' - Bottom

'Natural'

'Coral' is slightly brighter than it shows up on camera.

What they say:

'This convenient jumbo sized lip pencil creates exact colour application with twist up ease so you never have to sharpen. The pigment rich colour glides on effortlessly and easily to provide long lasting matte colour. The enriched Vitamin A, C & E formula moisturizes and hydrates lips for beautiful healthy looking lips.'

What I thought:

The packaging is quite sleek and streamline making them perfect to chuck in your handbag and take up minimal room. At just £3.50 they're affordable for all price ranges and prove that sometimes quality doesn't always equal a hefty price tag. Both pencils were very pigmented and smooth which allows you to fill your lips in with the colour incredibly quickly. As stated, they're completely matte but don't leave you with dry, flaky lips - I wouldn't say they're hydrating exactly but you aren't left feeling uncomfortable, they're a good happy medium. Overall I've been really impressed with the colours and formula, my favourite by far is 'natural' and I'd definately try out the other two shades at some point!

Do matte lip colours interest you?

  1. I have seen quite a few photos of these now and I think they seem really gorgeous! Your lip swatches are the best, you are already convincing me to try natural collection lippies and you made me buy the blush palette last week ;) xxx

  17. Coral looks gorgeous! I love a bright lip and the idea of it being matte really interests me, i've tried to mattify my lipstick with translucent powder but it doesn't have the same effect! although this doesn't look completely matte, but for the price its great!
