   Interesting — my experience is very different from that of the last reviewer. I bought this in the shade “Manhattan” (dark reddish brown) and find it wonderful. Velvety application, intense color and excellent longevity. It dried beautifully with no residual stickiness. Yes, it’s pricey but since I’m able to wear this on its own without lipstick, it’s actually quite economical. I’m very impressed with the quality and would buy this, along with other colors, again.

   Amp up your pout with sinful volume: Select a slightly darker shade of lip pencil than the desired lip colour. Apply the lip pencil just outside of the lip line, developing the desired shape and size.Using a lip brush, diffuse the lip pencil into the natural lip line by blending the colour towards the centre.To create the illusion of three-dimensionality, fill in the middle of lips with a pencil one shade lighter than the lip colour.

   This was a waste of money and I would not repurchase. I got the color Done Undone. It comes in a pretty box with a small sharpener which works ok, but not great. The color is good, but you have to sharpen it about every 2-3 uses and I can already tell it is not going to last long. I did not realize this was a pencil that had to be sharpened. Nowhere on the website does it mention that is has a sharpener. Don’t believe the description that says it doesn’t transfer or feather, yes it does both. Not a lot of transfer but it definitely does. If you apply is exactly as they describe above it does a decent job and it doesn’t come off easily but it does feather, so the ZERO feathering or transfer is not the case for me. It is also sticky and absolutely detest sticky lips and it dries them out even when I apply balm then blot like it says. Definitely not worth the price tag for me. I like my NYX pencil better if I have to sharpen one. It may not be as waterproof but it doesn’t dry my lips out and is not sticky. Back to my ULTA automatic in Flesh, Jordana Easyliner in Tawny for low priced ones. If you must have high end, I like Charlotte Tilbury Pillowtalk which is 3.00 less than this one.
   Save your money! This is a big DUD!
