I am fortunate to receive Marc Jacobs lip products thanks to Influenster.
I took this picture from my Instagram.
I received two of their newest lip products. For this post, I will review the nude on the bottom one on the right.
Product Review: Marc Jacobs Le Marc Liquid Lip Crayon in #300 Send Nudes
Where to purchase: Sephora and online at marcjacobsbeauty.com
Price: $26 for 2 g/ 0.07 oz
Made in Italy
Description from the website: Rewrite the (Lipstick) rules: Le Marc Liquid Lip Crayon is everything you love about a liquid lipstick in a creamy crayon.
This creamy crayon melts into lips with a lightweight liquid sensation. Providing powerful one-swipe color with bold impact. A dose of innovative "ghost pearl" gives the matte look a dimensional sheen for a never-before-seen finish. With the perfect amount of playtime, you get the best of both worlds: instant color that lasts for 16 luxurious hours of longwear. The bold, high-pigmented shades feel creamy and comfortable and won't dry or settle into lines. The crayon offers total control for effortless application. It's easier than ever to shape and fill your lips. Have it both ways... now you never need to choose between a traditional lipstick or a liquid again with this new innovation.
Each shade has a precise dose of innovative "ghost pearl" in a complementary or contrast tint to give lips added dimension. The sublty shimmering effect becomes more visible at certain angles or lighting to give lips a modern, never-before-seen finish.

Thoughts: I first saw this product through email from Sephora about the new products. I was intrigued especially with anything related to liquid lip products. Then when I received an email from Influenster that I'm receiving these products, I was stoke!
Here's a closer look at the lip crayon.
Here's a closer look at the color. This is the nude of the bunch. The website describes it as "90s brownish nude." To be honest, I have no clue what that color is.
Here's the quantity of the lip product.
Here's a swatch of the lip color on my hand.
Here's how the lip crayon looks on me.
Here's an overall look with Too Faced Chocolate Gold Eyeshadow Palette on the eyes.
Now for my overall opinion... First of all, there was no noticeable scent while applying. I just sniffed the product and it has a slight scent. It smells like vanilla. Secondly, I love the packaging. To be honest, I was drawn to this product for this main reason. It also doesn't hurt that it's a lip crayon. I'm a huge fan of lip crayons. With that said, the design is simple. It's shiny black with a circle in the center of the tube. I believe the color of the circle is the color of the lip crayon, but I could be wrong. It's made out of firm plastic, and there are no scratches and finger marks. It's extremely well-made and sturdy. The top is also sturdy. I can feel a tight seal when I push down the top, as well as, pull from the tube. I cannot see this open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For that reason, it's travel-friendly. Since it's thin enough, it's easy to throw in your purse, bag, and even your pocket. It's also easy to hold with your dominant hand. Not only that, it's retractable. You do not need a sharpener. Third, the consistency is creamy. It goes on smoothly, easily, and does not tug on the lips. Since it's a lip crayon, it's easy to outline the lips and fill in the remaining. With that said, it's easy to use. It goes on slightly thick. If you want to apply it thickly, just drawing is good enough. For me, I don't like the thick consistency on the lips. I like the light-weight feel. For that reason, I draw a simple line and put my lips together. It spreads easily and feels more like my natural lip. It is up to you how you want to apply on the lip product. Fourth, I wouldn't say it's on the nude side. It has more purple than brown to me, but I could be wrong. It's a great everyday color but I could see myself wearing this more so for fall and winter season. If you're not into shiny metallic lips, this might not be for you. I'm not used to this type of look on me but it's a big thing this season, as well as, 2018. It's pretty and each time I wear it, I like the color more. Pigmentation-wise I was impressed. I didn't even draw the entire lips. I drew couple of lines and put my lips together. That's the result of partial color on the lips. Lastly, it lasted longer than my meal. I have a tendency to wipe my mouth after each meal. The color wasn't as bold as initially, but most of the colors were still there. I was pretty impressed. Not only that, it's comfortable and not drying at all. I didn't see any white residue in the center of the lips. I'm so glad I got to try this product. I was actually going to go to Sephora to test this baby out. I didn't have to and was blessed to receive it. It's a great product if you like long lasting, metallic lips!
