If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen my photo of swatches (below) of the Maybelline Color Drama Intense Velvet Lip Pencil a few weeks ago. I have six out of the ten shades available and my two favourites have to be "Keep it Classy" a mauve pink great for everyday wear and "Berry Much" the name says it all really; a perfect Autumn/Winter shade.
Rumour has it they are highly comparable (drugstore) dupes for the Nars Lip Pencils; while I can't confirm that myself as I don't own any of the Nars ones, I can definitely say these are great for £4.99 each you just can't go wrong and I have stopped my yearning for the Nars pencils (for the mean time)!
They are highly pigmented, non-drying and very easy to apply with a creamy feel that give a glossy finish. Although these don't drag on application I would prime your lips beforehand. Now I want to say these last all day but the fact is they don't but do tend to leave a little tint on my lips. I do find my self topping up at least twice in the day depending on what I have had to drink or eat. Having said that I am not complaining, for the price they are a steal and small enough to pop into your handbag for days on the go.
You can pick up these little beauts from Boots for £4.99 each here and they are on offer for buy one get the 2nd half price! *Bargain*
Have any of you tried these and or the Nars Velvet Lip pencils? How do they compare? Let me know!
