17 Lip Stain in Berry Crush is a twist in the traditional lip balm.
The packaging is a simple pen shape with a felt tip like applicator with a lid to stop the product drying out.
Whilst it looks like the lip stain would be very hard to apply and feel dry on application it’s quite the opposite. As I pressed the nib onto my lips a wet sensation ensures my lips don’t dry out and colour is applied evenly.
Whilst the colour isn’t as waxy as a lipstick it gives lips a instant hit of colour that brightens the complexion. On the opposite side of the pen is a Vaseline like solution that can be applied on top of the colour to give lips a sexy sheen.
I do like the strength of colour in this lip stain and the fact that it’s a cheaper alternative to brands like Revlon. However there was a slight bleeding of colour that slightly ruined the effect.
I’ll give it 4/5
