Hello everyone,

I hope you had a great weekend. I have been busy with so many things ever since the mid week of December. We finally took down the decorations and Christmas tree. To be honest I was not feeling the Christmas vibe they way I did in my childhood. Most festivals have just become a one day affair - it comes and goes.So for Christmas I picked up some make up for myself and for blog review purposes from Blue Heaven cosmetics. They are one of the oldest makeup companies in the Indian market and since last 2 years are introducing more and more affordable range of make up. I am going to review  Blue Heaven Xpression Lip Color Pencils in my post today and my experience trying them on. Read on to know more....

Packaging:



Blue Heaven Xpression Lip Color Pencil - Review & Swatches

They come in a sealed golden yellow packaging which I like because you know it may not have been touched. The pencil itself is golden yellow in color with the product and brand name printed on it. Unfortunately there is no mention of shade no. on it so you may have to use the sticker stuck on the paper packaging or use a marker and note the no. and expiry date as well. It comes with a clear cap which is very flimsy and easily breakable so you have to very careful and I would not call it travel friendly to be honest. Every lip pencil comes with its own sharpener which is again golden yellow in color. The end cap has a tendency to come off as well and I would recommend you to glue it in case that happens. One thing I liked about Blue Heaven customer service is that in case of any defect or problem they always send a replacement without any hassle. You just need to click a picture of the product with the problem and they send you a replacement at no extra cost..

Shade no 01 is a pinky red with no shimmer and looks quite similar to no.05

Shade no 05 is a blue based red with a hint of pink and looks similar to no.01 but they are different off course and it is my favourite among the two.

Shade no 06 is a chocolate brown color which will look amazing on fair to medium skin tones. You know how much these colors are in demand now a days right ;)

Coming to the product - they claim that it is a lip pencil which is a lip liner sort of product. The pigmentation is really amazing and gives a good color pay off in just one swipe.There was no shimmer in the product and has a creamy consistency. It goes on smoothly on the lips and hence can be used as a lip liner and lipstick as well.It lasts for 3 to 4 hours depending on what you eat or snack on. It is easily transferrable as it is quite creamy, it does fade from the centre and one would need to reapply again which I feel is ok. Overall I am impressed with the product and the color payoff I mean for 60 bucks what can one expect right?? I love the product but not the packaging to be honest and they should improve it right away.This is great for college students and someone on a budget. I am looking to grab the other shades in future because who doesn't want a good deal right ;)  and I can work with the packaging by storing them upright.I would definitely recommend you to try these pencils for sure.

MLWM Rating: 4/5

Blue Heaven Xpression Lip Color Pencil is a great inexpensive lipstick cum lip liner type of lip product and is available for only 60 bucks. I do like it for  the price. Have you tried anything from Blue Heaven cosmetics before?? Do let me know in the comments section.

Until next time... Take care xoxo
