Korea Special: Too Cool For School - Too Cool Art Class : Art Class Lip Crayon

Another product from this fun school themed cosmetics company; The Art Class Lip Crayon. These Lip Crayons are actually modeled after your Crayola crayons. But when buying a lip crayon, one must also purchase the crayon sharpener.

Packaging:




looks very familiar doesn't it? the packaging is obviously very cute, and for me, brings back many primary school memories. I love how creative they are with the packaging, however, only one thing concerns me. These don't twist up and down. Which means you have to get more product the old fashioned way - literally sharpening the crayon. And it's not like you carry the sharpener everywhere you go, so it's a little inconvenient. 

Packaging Rating: 4/5

So the product itself is very smooth and the color is the exact same as the packaging color, so swatch tests are not so necessary. Unfortunately, this crayon does not easily spread into the cracks of your lips, so I ended up layering it over and over again, which was a waste of product. Another dissappointing aspect of the lip crayon is its lasting power. It becomes dry very easily, especially when its windy, and it comes off after eating something or drinking water. 

The yellow and blue crayons are actually clear. Yellow is glittery, and blue is pearly. You layer those 2 colors on either the red, pink or orange (not shown) lip crayons to make it glittery or pearly, and at the same time, make another combination of colors. Interesting concept though! 

Product Rating: 2/5 

Final Thoughts: It's a shame that this lip crayon doesn't last so long, otherwise it would have been a great replacement for a lipstick! 

Pros: Packaging design
Cons: Lasting power, sharpening is annoying
