The result was the Huda Beauty lip Contours-take over the makeup world, sharp lines, long wear, and a flawless kill pout. A hype I seem to be falling for because as a lip liner enthusiast I got this pencil and took it to task in the name of research. So if you want the low down on the texture, or the shade range grab a snack get comfy because we are gonna dish out all the honesty.
First Impressions: Sleek Design and Shade Extravaganza
Packaging Now that’s what I call packaging! The lip pencils have sleek, twist-up design-very sturdy and chic.
Plus, the color range?
Very impressive: from classic nudes to trendy berries and bold reds, there’s a shade-slash-ten!-to suit every mood and makeup look.
Let’s break it down:
Buttery Smooth: These lip liners boast a sumptuously creamy texture gliding effortlessly across your lips-no tugging, no pulling, just smooth, comfortable application.
Sharpen Like a Dream: There’s the convenience of the twist-up design and the pencils sharpen easily with most standard sharpeners. No more dull lines and no more wasted product!
Line & Define: Perfect for outlining sharply defined lip lines, preventing feathering of lipstick and to layer fuller lip color all over your lip.
Color Me Impressed: Amazing color payoff with rich, vibrant pigments that won’t budge all day.
Long-Lasting Love These liners really hold their own. They work beautifully with lipsticks and glosses, and really help extend the wear time of your lip products.
The Not-So-Good Stuff: A Few Things to Consider
No product is perfect, so here’s what I wasn’t crazy about:
Price Point Huda Beauty Lip Contours are across the higher price point spectrum in comparison to some drugstore lip liners.
Transferability: Though they are long-lasting, creaminess causes a bit of minor transfer with oily foods. Blotting throughout the day will be needed.
Shade Availability: Not all shades are always available. The more popular ones are going to sell out fast so you’ll have to be ready to grab one fast!
The Final Verdict: Hype or Holy Grail?
So do Huda Beauty Lip Contours live up the hype?
Here’s my verdict:
So, creamy-lover’s dream, these lip liners really are: creamy texture, great wear, the shade varieties for days. They work perfectly at lining in and defining the lip or when you just want to fill those babies in for a bold, long-lasting pout. However, if you are on an ultra budget or prefer a lip liner that is more matte in terms of formula, then there are probably better options out there for you.
Would I Recommend This?
It really depends! If you want to splurge and invest in a great lip liner that checks all the boxes, then yes! But if you are just starting out of or prefer drugstore, there are some awesome alternatives.
Final Thoughts
Overall, quality is excellent, feels luxurious, and really gives you so much color payoff with a long-lasting wear. The price tag might necessarily turn you off; these are tempting options for lip liner lovers. Weigh up against pros and also cons to see whether this fits into your needs and budget!
