The Givenchy Lip Pencil in Beige is designed to deliver a refined and long-lasting lip look. Its smooth texture allows for precise application, making it easy to create a defined lip line. You can use it to subtly enhance your natural lip shape or to correct minor asymmetries.
Prepare Your Lips: Ensure your lips are smooth and moisturized. Gently exfoliate if necessary.
Outline: Starting from your cupid's bow, carefully outline the natural curve of your upper lip. Follow the contours of your lower lip.
Fill (Optional): For enhanced longevity and to create an even base, you can gently fill in your entire lip area with the pencil. This also intensifies the color of your subsequent lipstick.
Apply Lip Color: Follow with your chosen lipstick or lip gloss. The beige shade provides a neutral canvas, working particularly well with nude, light pink, peach, and natural brown lip colors.
This pencil excels at keeping lip color locked in place, even through light meals or sips. The beige hue is especially beneficial for achieving a 'your lips but better' look when worn under neutral lipsticks, preventing harsh lines while still offering definition.
Setup: This lip pencil does not require any initial setup beyond a good quality cosmetic sharpener.
Compatibility:
Lipsticks & Glosses: Highly compatible with virtually all cream, matte, satin, and sheer lipstick formulas, as well as various lip glosses. The beige shade is particularly versatile for light to medium lip colors.
Skin Types: Suitable for all skin types.
Care:
Sharpening: To maintain a precise tip for accurate application, regularly sharpen the pencil using a cosmetic sharpener designed for makeup pencils. Avoid using household sharpeners.
Storage: Always replace the cap securely after each use to prevent the pencil tip from drying out or breaking. Store the pencil in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can affect its texture and longevity.
Cleaning: If the pencil gets soiled, gently wipe the barrel with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the pencil in water.
