Thrive just launched their EmpowerMattePrecision Lipstick Crayon and they sent me *most* of the shades! These are $28 and are supposed to be a lip liner and bold matte lipstick in one.
They describe the formula as a “weightless comfort-matte with a velvety-smooth texture that glides on tug-free for even color and a non-sticky finish. Infused with moisturizing ingredients like shea butter, jojoba oil, and sodium hyaluronate, this game-changing matte lipstick nourishes + hydrates lips and remains comfortable to wear all day.”
My thoughts:
These are probably the most lightweight bold lipstick I’ve tried. They feel ultra-thin and a bit slippery, which might be a good thing depending on your preference. They’re definitely comfortable, I didn’t notice my lips feeling particularly dry, but I think there’s bit *too* much glide to the formula, they can definitely transfer and get messy.
Personally, I wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing such a slippery formula in bold colors, but I also don’t like lipstick crayons in general because they feel quite young/cheap so this product just isn’t for me. I shipped these to a lovely follower so she could enjoy them instead! While these don’t align with my preferences for lipstick, I could see them being someone else’s favorite if you love ultra-lightweight formulas in a crayon component.
If your preferences usually align with mine, check out Thrive’s lip liners and lip gloss formulas! They’re some of my favorite products.
