Maybelline ColorSensational Popsticks Lip Liner in "INTENSE PINK" Shade No 140

I have not used a Lip Liner for very many years, because I found them to be an uncomfortable experience. As this one is described as 'soft' I was eager to compare it to those previously used. So, here is my experience:

1st Impressions:

• It arrived in a press-seal transparent poly bag

• The Lip Liner has a transparent hard plastic cap to protect the point of the pencil.

• Printed on the pencil is the colour name and shade number, which I think is handy. It is at the end of the product, by the silver band, so that you have the reminder should you wish to purchase the same colour again.

In use:

• Colour – "INTENSE PINK" Shade No 140 - It is a warm, mid-rose pink which I find to be a good general, middle of the road colour. It is a pretty shade and can be useful as a base to perk up a lipstick that is maybe a little too pale, or perhaps tone...

Quite a deep shade, red, rather than pink, 17 Dec. 2015

I was quite surprised when this arrived, as it is called "Intense Pink" number 140, but really it is quite a dark shade and I would have placed it in a red category rather than pink, as it isn't really pink at all, not even an intense pink at that... and when it goes on it is more on the shade of a burgundy red, but is nice and light on the lips and not a heavy colour at all and it blends well with any darker shade pinks or any reddish tones really well, however, it is a little too dark to go with a lighter pink, unless you want to really define the edge of your lips.It is a standard size lip liner, with a cap that applies really well. Sharpens with a normal sharpener and is best used when it has a good point for definition lines.
