These velvet lip pencils were my first introduction to GOSH Cosmetics. I bought them on a whim when I was looking for a nude and red lip color whilst at Edgar's and it was love at first swatch
They are called velvet lip pencils but they apply creamy and leave a matte-like finish. I suggest exfoliating your lips with a lip scrub if you're going to apply them on their own without lipstick which is how I prefer them
"Simply red" is a stunning red perfect for daytime. It's my go to red when I'm going for a look that's not too dramatic
"Nougat crisp" is a nude pink
"Antique rose" is mauvy pink
The first downside of these lip pencils is that they have to be sharpened. Twist ups are just so much more convenient. The 2nd downside is that they can't be used on their own. They are good only for lining the lips and to use underneath lipstick
I can't compare them to the MAC lip pencils because I don't use any of them but for their price they are pretty okay
They retail for R110 at Edgar's
