{This review is of most use to US readers; you’ll see what I mean at the end!}

Check out this little gem from my most recent Lip Monthly beauty bag! Lip Monthly is an entirely lip focused beauty subscription service based in the U.S. which delivers internationally (come on Lipsy, hurry up & get your international on too please!). You can check out my post about Lip Monthly here.

I don’t generally buy lip crayons, being a devoted follower of the traditional Lipliner & Lipstick method. But this one from Be a Bombshell is such an appealing shade that I gave it a go.It’s called ‘Shameless’; here’s how it looks on my very fair skin (NW15):

There’s a plum/berry vibe going on with this shade that’s lovely for Autumn. The formula is fairly sheer but easily layered if that’s what you fancy. If you’re someone who finds a substantial lip colour a little too much for the daytime, this product would be good for you, because you can decide how much coverage to go for. 

It is so quick and easy to apply; handy for days when you’re running late or just living the Chroniclife like myself & are therefore low on energy. If I want to maximise wear time between touch ups, I use a transparent lip pencil to keep lines clean for longer. The speed at which a finished lip look can be achieved with this product is excellent. 

Having decided that I like this new addition to my lip product collection, I went online to research the brand. As sod’s law would have it, the Be A Bombshell website doesn’t ship to the UK 😒 Some of their products are available on Amazon & EBay but keep an eye on the postage costs. So annoying to come across a great beauty find then discover that getting hold of it again will be tricky. Still, at least this product has helped me get over my aversion to lip crayons!

Do you like lip crayons or do you prefer more conventional lipsticks & lipliners? Do you have a favourite lip crayon from a UK brand?

Wishing you good luck & happy days,

Kindra x
