Hello Beauties,
Today my thoughts are on the Kay beauty matteinee lip crayon or matteinee matte lipstick chartbuster. If you know me, I am addicted to lipsticks. When Kay beauty launched its range of products I had been curious to try their lip crayon range for long time and finally bought the shade chartbuster.
According to the brand Kay beauty matteinee lip crayon uses the combination of 18 hour long stay and extreme matte finish with ultra comfort. The formula delivers a high colour payoff while being weightless on the lips and making the lips feel feathery soft and light. It is 100% waterproof and sweat proof. The lip crayon range consists of 24 shades.
Price
799 for 1.8gm
Features
- Extreme rich matte finish.
- Made in Europe.
- 18 hour long stay.
- Weightless formula.
- Chamomile & Marula oil for intense hydration.
Packaging: The lipstick comes in a tube like pen with the matching shade and white cap. The name of the shade is written on the print but at first you will find it hard to see. The lipstick rolls out from the tube once you start to twist it.
My Experience
Coming to the shade of this lipstick, I simply adore this colour. It’s a rich chocolate brown that compliments every skin tone. The problem with this crayon is the texture and formula. By texture I mean when you apply this you do not get an opaque finish with one swipe but you need to go for round two, however when you do that, it ends being patchy and I think it has to do with the fact that it is a darker shade thus it’s difficult to formulate an even finish. And it is drying so I do go in with a lip balm first but even so while applying the lipstick, the product moves around. So I did some research or saw some you tuber’s videos and they too said the same thing, certain shades formulated are not pigmented and some were fine. Plus the price you pay is 799 rupees which is a little expensive compared to the nykaa matte-licious lip crayons which are 699 for 2.8gm but it includes a sharpener too. I guess some of Kay beauty’s lip crayons swatch better so it depends on the colour you choose. Also the crayon is not fully smudge proof or waterproof, it does last upto 8 hours without a meal, if your food is oily then obviously it will fade, that applies to every lipstick out there.
Pros
- Variety of shades available.
- Does last long enough.
Cons
- Formula is drying.
- Not extremely pigmented and is patchy which could be due to the dark color.
- Slightly expensive for the quantity.
- Only available in India.
