The NYX Professional Makeup Slim Lip Pencil in Plum is your essential tool for achieving a flawless lip look that endures. Its rich, full-coverage pigment allows you to create sharp, defined lines, making your lips appear fuller and more symmetrical.
To use, begin by ensuring your lips are clean and dry. For optimal definition, lightly prep your lips with a thin layer of foundation or concealer.
Outline Your Lips: Starting from the Cupid's bow, gently trace the natural outline of your upper lip. Extend the line towards the outer corners. Repeat for the lower lip, starting from the center and moving outwards. For a slightly fuller look, you can draw just outside your natural lip line.
Prevent Feathering: The pencil's formula creates a barrier that prevents lipstick or gloss from migrating into fine lines around the mouth.
Enhance Longevity (Optional): For maximum wear and color intensity, lightly fill in your entire lip area with the pencil before applying your lipstick or lip gloss. This provides a solid base that grips your lip product and makes it last even longer.
Apply Lip Product: Once your lips are outlined and potentially filled, apply your favorite lipstick or lip gloss over the top. The plum shade pairs beautifully with a range of purples, berries, and even neutral lip colors for added depth.
This pencil adheres perfectly, ensuring your lip look remains vibrant and precise for hours, elevating your overall makeup application.
This lip pencil arrives ready for immediate use. Its design is straightforward, requiring no complex setup.
The NYX Professional Makeup Slim Lip Pencil is highly compatible with a wide array of lip products. It works seamlessly under various lipsticks (matte, satin, cream, sheer), lip glosses, and even worn alone for a matte finish. The 'Plum' shade is versatile, complementing many skin tones and lip color palettes, especially purples, berry tones, and deep reds.
To ensure the longevity and performance of your lip pencil:
Sharpening: Regularly sharpen your pencil using a high-quality cosmetic sharpener. This maintains a fine tip for precise application and helps keep the product hygienic. For best results, use a sharpener designed for makeup pencils to prevent breakage and waste.
Storage: Store the pencil in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, as heat can soften the formula.
Hygiene: Keep the cap securely on when not in use to prevent the tip from drying out and to protect it from dirt and debris. Avoid sharing your lip pencil with others to maintain hygiene.
