I love lip products , infact I have more than required amount of lipsticks in my stash. Faces is a brand I love for quality products, especially their lipsticks. Last year when Faces released their Ultime PronMatte Lip Crayons, everyone raved about the formula & lasting power. This time they have come up with Creme Lip Crayons in 11 shades. I was very excited and bought 5 of them online (from nykaa) and got two more as press samples. I have already done a video on the swatches & review but for my blog readers here is a detailed blog post on Faces Ultime Pro Creme Lip Crayons –
Packaging is simple. Colored body with transparent lid, also the crayon is in retractable form, which means no sharpening. You get 4 grams of product which is quite good.
Shades – I have 7 7 Faces Ultime Pro Creme Lip Crayons to review & swatch today –
02 Sunset Kiss* – Orange
03 Envy* – Peach
04 Invincible – Vivid Coral with pink tones. The outer packaging looks a bit too pink , but the actual product shade is coral.
05 Mocha-Vicious – Dusty Brown
06 Sun Dew – Rust-Orange
08 Cherry pop – Deep Berry
09 Berry Punch – Muted Berry. I thought it would be a good cream alternative to Revlon Sultry but Berry Punch has more berry tones.
I have watched all the shades in ascending order. Look how creamy are these !
Left To Right – 02 Sunset kiss, 03 Envy, 04 Invincible, 05 Mocha-Licious, 06 Sun Dew, 08 Cherrypop, 09 Berry Punch
Texture & Formula – True to the description these have a very creamy, smooth texture. Generally lighter/ brighter shades go patchy but none of the shades I tried were patchy or difficult to work with. All the swatches are just one stroke of crayon. Formula is highly moisturising and feels comfortable on the lips.
You can blot the excess off with the help of a tissue to get a semi-matte finish. I really enjoy the finish and feel.
Pigmentation – Superbly Pigmented ! You will need only now swipe and Faces Ultime Pro Creme Lip Crayons will cover lip discolouration and pigmentation effectively. I am wearing 08 Cherrypop above and you can see how well it covers the discolouration.
Staying Power – Since these crayons are super creamy don’t expect high wear-time. I have seen them staying on for 3-5 hours on me, depending on the shade. Lighter shades fade faster than darker shades as always.
Faces Ultime Pro Creme Lip Crayons are priced at Rs 749 each and can be purchased from Nykaa

Overall Thoughts
Highly recommended for cream lip products. Faces Ultime Pro Creme Lip Crayons are superbly smooth, butter and very pigmented. I like how my lips feel smooth & comfortable throughout the wear. The only downside is the flimsy cap which is fragile and prone to breakage.
Ratings : 4.5/5

Am going to get this. The shade and pigmentation are excellent…

The shades seem a little repetitive and sheer when compared to the matte range.

Faces used to be such an affordable brand but not anymore. Colours are beautiful, but not unique. You look beautiful as usual Shalini. Your Girl next door image is so relatable 🙂
