Elle 18 Matte Crayon Baked Blush Review

Elle 18 has launched their lip crayons and I was super excited to try these. Elle 18 is known for its affordability and high quality. Read the complete review Elle 18 Matte Crayon Baked Blush to find out more about these crayons.

How to Use? Starting from the centre of your upper lip, in your cupid’s bow, follow your lip line evenly, and fill color evenly all over the upper and lower lips.

Packaging :The packaging of Elle 18 Matte Crayon Baked Blush is quite simple yet sturdy. I love the fact that crayons are color coded so that you don’t have to open each lipstick to check the shade. The crayon is black and has a color coded sticker wrapped around it with all the details. I really liked the packaging. The only thing is that it has to be sharpened.

Fragrance: It smells similar to the elle 18 lipsticks. Really mild and pleasant fragrance.

I  like the quality of elle 18 lipsticks and have been using them for the longest time now. I was really very excited to try these lip crayons by elle 18, so I actually bought 2 shades from the range. First lets talk about the quality of the lipstick. I would say that these lipsticks are not much pigmented and you have to coat your lips good 3-4 times to get the color on your lips, it does not deliver the color in 1 swipe.

It does sit beautifully on the lips once applied. The finish is not completely matte. And it stays on your lips for 2-3 hours after which it starts fading. But it does not completely go off, it does leave a stain on your lips. I had this lipstick on my lips for around 6 hours. For the first 2 hours the lipstick was there but after that it started fading away and in the end after 6 hours my lips were stained with the lip color ever so slightly.

Also, if you eat or drink something the lipstick will go away, And it is not transfer-proof.This lipstick does not dry down your lips completely if you wear a lip balm underneath. Now, coming to this shade, when I saw it on the site it looked like a more reddish color to me but in person this is actually a pink color. It is beautiful color and can be worn anywhere anytime

Pros :

1. Super- affordable.
2. Has a semi-matte finish.
3. Is not very drying on the lips.
4. Has 8 shades in the range.
5. Color coded packaging.

Cons :

1. Could have been more pigmented.
2. Staying power is less.
3. Needs sharpening that wastes a lot of product.

Price:INR 110 for 2.2gm.

CC Rating: 4/5

I would say that these Elle 18 Matte Crayon Baked Blush are really good for 2-3 hours after which they need re-application. I just wish these were a little more pigmented. Otherwise all the things are quite good about these crayons. But if you are looking for something affordable this is a really good product to go for.
