I purchased my first Femme Nude stylo several months ago and I love it! It's definitely NOT a lip pencil, it's more of a lipstick or lip creme in the shape of a crayon... The formula is thicker than a lipstick but not so thick that it acts as a pencil...it's almost impossible to describe so let's call it unique! Regardless, it's a lovely formula and is definitely nude...like a 60's era nude and oh so feminine. I adore it!
It's smooth, creamy, hydrating, long lasting and more nude than anything I have ever used. I now have 3 different shades, each one different, despite all being nude and each gives a unique look.
I cannot find anything negative to say about this product, formula, packaging, price, etc. I give it a very healthy 5 stars because it achieves exactly what it claims to do and for being a unique product on the market...that's hard to achieve considering the billions of different lip products out there. I'm sure I haven't tried all of them, but my vanity speaks volumes about the number of lipsticks, creams, glosses, pencils, mattes, glossy's, stains, satins, high pigment and tints, balms, crayons, etc. etc.! You get the point! This one falls into NONE of those categories, so 5 stars for uniqueness and for a lovely product that is comforting, pretty, feminine, natural and conditioning. :)
They have also packed a lot of product into this stylo...it's not a cheap amount of product in a large package...it's full and lasts quite a while, so kudos for that too! I'm very impressed and with all the products out there today, it takes a LOT to impress me as everything is starting to look and feel like copycats, but not this!
So, if you're looking for a true nude..that 60's look that screams femininity...then try this! It's also great as a base for a gloss if you want that extra shine, or it will tone down a brighter color if you're looking for that truly unique look. Again it's hard to explain or describe without trying it yourself, so try it! I took a chance and have purchased 3 additional and will keep coming back for more as long as they're still out there!
