It has been ages since I did one of these…
Like I mentioned in one of my recent posts, I have been ‘rocking’ the natural dewy-skin look and just paying more attention to my melanin skin; today, I felt like a full-face ‘glam’.👩
Also, I would share some amazing and very affordable Velvet-lip Crayons.
‘No worries!’ I will not write too much: more pictures, less talk… or no?😸Sooooo let’s get on with this look, shall we?

Now this was the fun part!
‘So’ I tried out 6 lip-crayons I got from Primark a while ago.
By the way, if you are in the U.K., do not ‘sleep’ on the Primark make-up range. I have tried and tested a few of their make-up, and they are the bomb, easily dupes for some higher-end brands.
Possibly, I should be doing a post on that soon.😕
These Velvet Matte Lip crayons are soft and smooth, like butter-on-the-lips_ pigmented and applies like a dream. They say they are matte, but they are so hydrating.
These lip-crayons are like £2 [Two Pounds Sterling], roughly =N=1’000 [One Thousand Nairas]! Amazing, right? [What is more amazing is, you can sometimes get them cheaper; say a pound or 50p].
I am serious y’all! If you can get your hands on these, do not sleep on it. Not just their crayons! Their lipsticks… liquid lipsticks… lip-glosses… lip-liners… the whole ‘gbogbo egbo’. Lol!😁
‘Nough said, first PS Velvet Matte Lip-stick Crayon is…
Dulce Le Leche:
A beautiful ‘nude-like’ colour with a Peachy sort of undertone…
*Lined with Mac Chestnut Lip-liner
Nude Beach:
Very similar to the first, but with a tint of Pink undertone_ almost like a Coral-Pink , still ‘nudey’ [I do beg your pardon, I just like saying ‘nudey’. It is a nudey, nude-nude… Hehehe [I shall not be rude; it rued the mood; but I stayed true to the nude.]… O.K., some-one knock me back. Lol!😂
*Lined with Mac Chestnut Lip-liner.
Cherry Blossom:
This is a beautiful, cool Pinkish-Purple shade; it could be a nice, nude colour on some skin-tones.
Claret:
A mix between Purple and Violet, with a sort of Berry undertone [one of my favourites too].
Midnight:
A deep brown color with a bit of purple undertone. Really like the dark, vampy look.
24k Dip:
This one has a metallic-finish, and as the name implies a sort of golden colour. Not my best of the lot; only because I ‘struggle’ to look great with a metallic lipstick. Still, a good buy!
Okey-dokey!
Which is your favourite lip-colour?
Thanks for stopping-by!
