Glo Skin Beauty Precision Lip Pencil - Soulmate

A lip pencil that keeps your line sharp while also being able to add color to your entire lip.

Why it works

Lip color that bleeds into the fine lines around your mouth is rarely a matter of too much product: it is a border that isn't defined. This pencil sets that border and keeps it, because the formula is water-resistant and barely shifts, melts, or transfers. What distinguishes it from a regular lip pencil is what else is inside: jojoba oil and meadowfoam seed oil, ceramide NP, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin E. You would sooner expect ceramides and hyaluronic acid in your skincare. The former helps hold the skin barrier together, while the latter binds moisture. As a result, the line doesn't feel like a dry stripe.

The texture is velvet-soft with a satin, slightly glossy finish. It is blendable and buildable, so you decide whether it stays as a line or becomes a full color.

About this shade

Soulmate is a soft petal pink: light, subtle, and muted. It defines your line without making it obvious that there is a line there. The choice for anyone who doesn't want it to look like makeup, and for wearing under lighter nudes and pink shades.

For whom

For anyone who notices lipstick starting to bleed, or who notices the lip contour becoming less defined over the years. Also, if you want to make your lips look a bit fuller: you can work just against the outer edge of your natural line, which makes a big optical difference. And for those who don't actually wear lipstick but still want something, a pencil on its own, blended out, is often enough.

How to use it

Trace the border, starting at the corners of the mouth and moving toward the center. That is where the shape is and where things usually go wrong. Then fill in the entire lip instead of just the edge, because otherwise, you will see a dark outline around a faded center after a few hours. After that, you can apply lipstick or gloss, or leave it as is. Keep the tip sharp with a sharpener; that is half the battle.

What I'd like to share with you

The lip pencil is the product that is skipped most often and the one where I see the most difference. Not because it's spectacular, but because it makes your color last much longer, and that makes more of a difference than a more expensive lipstick. What I often correct in the treatment room: people draw their line just outside or just inside the edge of their lip. Look in the mirror where your lip tissue transitions into skin and place your line exactly there. That is the difference between polished and drawn on.
