Glo Skin Beauty Cream Glaze Lip Crayon - Praline

A lip crayon with the shine of a gloss and the color payoff of a lipstick, in a shape that allows you to line your lips at the same time.

Why it works

Shine and care rarely go hand in hand: many shiny lip products look great, but dry out your lips in the process because they lack nourishing ingredients. This formula is built around shea butter and mango seed oil, two fats that sit on the surface of the lip and lock in moisture. This is combined with an antioxidant complex featuring vitamins C and E and plant extracts, which protects the lips against external aggressors. The shine therefore doesn't come from a separate top layer, but from the fatty base itself. This is precisely why it isn't sticky.

The texture is creamy and glides on without dragging. It delivers full color and continues to feel like a balm, not makeup.

About this color

Praline is a warm, toasted brown sugar shade with a fine shimmer. No glitter: the particles are small enough to simply catch the light, which makes the lip appear fuller. Distinctly warm in undertone, so it looks best on skin that tans easily or has a natural golden glow.

Who it's for

For anyone whose lips feel dry or tight easily and therefore usually sticks to a balm: here you get that same comfort, but with color. Also great if you notice your lips are becoming thinner, as shine catches the light and makes the lip look fuller than a matte color does. And if you normally don't wear lipstick because it's too much hassle: this is a pencil you can apply without a mirror.

How to use it

First, trace the edge of your lip with the tip and then fill it in. You can also layer it over a matte lip crayon for depth of color rather than a flat look. What often goes wrong: pressing too hard. The formula is soft, you need very little pressure, and this will keep your tip in better shape for longer. Sharpen it occasionally with a crayon sharpener. It also works on the cheeks and eyelids, which is handy if you want to pull a single color through your entire face.

My advice

In the treatment room, I often see dry lips that have a matte color applied on top, which only makes them feel tighter. If your lips are flaky, don't start with color but with a day or two of balm, and then reach for this crayon. It simply looks much better on a smooth lip. And honestly: shine doesn't last as long as matte. Count on a few hours and carry it in your bag. That's not a flaw in the formula; it's just what shine does.
