ILIA - Lip Sketch Hydrating Crayon (Gala)

Another winner from Ilia. This saturated color hydrating lip crayon is so versatile and has great staying power. The matte finish is great on its own, but its superpower is being the base for the blend of several colors/products (I like to customize). Keeps everything in place longer and harmonizes with other lip products opening up a whole world of lip color creation. Looks better after several hours of wear than lots of long-last lip color. Fades in a way that looks more subtle — less old lady blotchy — than matte color usually offers. Add lip balm over it at the end of the day to bring a more subtle final life to it. After first applying it, let it sit for a couple minutes to melt into your lips and open up the color. Worth the price for solid hydration, great coverage, and smudge resistance after it sets. Easy application and forgiving for first minute, letting you clean up your lines before it clings to the skin.

Color works with every complexion, makes lips softer and stays put.

ILIA is my favorite brand of lip pencil. It is listed as a hydrating crayon and definitely lives up to that name! I have bought three different shades of this crayon and love all of them. It goes on very easy and smooth and I color in my entire lip area with the crayon. Then I put my lipstick on top of the crayon. I found that Revl💄n in the color rose velvet matches this lip crayon in deco perfectly. The combination lasts all day!

I love Ilia products, this color is just not great. The product itself is good quality and I will definitely purchase in a different color.

Great lip liner that works also as the foundation under clear lip gloss. The color is elegant, it stays on my lips which is surprising while it is smudge resistant. It's well worth the money as it lasts for a long time.

Quality is great but not dark enough for my lips. Waited to long to return.

Great lip liner! Moisturizing.. will rub off easily. I like the product though. Soft application.

Best long lasting and beautifully formulated lipliner on the market. The pencil is giant will last forever. Will never buy other skinny lipliner brands again. Color Earthen goes with everything. I use with my coral, burnt orange, and brown or nide lipsticks. Also looks great with pinkish tones.
