Review of Sugar Cosmetics Matte As Hell Crayon Lipstick in the shade 01 Scarlett O'Hara

Hello lovelies. Today I am going review about a much-talked about product that has been a current obsession for many beauty bloggers in the recent past. I am talking about the crayon lipsticks that has been launched by Sugar cosmetics. It's a German company. It has four shades namely 01 Scarlett O'Hara which is a bright red color, 02 Mary Poppins which is a bright fuchsia color with purple undertones, 03 Poison Ivy which is a deep wine color and 04 Holly Golightly which is a nude shade.

What the company claims :
Screenshop from the company page.

I will be reviewing the shade 01 Scarlett O'Hara as it's the only shade I have as of now. To start with the packaging. The lipstick comes in a soft cardboard packaging which looks classy and elegant. The details of the cardboard is mentioned on the packet itself such as name of the shade, ingredients, product details & quantity. It comes along with a free sharpener which is in a different packet.

The mentioned ingredients.

The lipstick comes in a sturdy package. The shade of the lipstick is mentioned on the packet as well as on the lipstick for easier recognition of the shade. This particular shade has blue undertones and hence imparts a brightness once you apply it. I am huge fan of red lipsticks and recently I have possessed a great love for matte lipstick so this one has to be in my collection. This color will suit fair to dusky skin tones. 
This is how the product looks without the cap. It had perfect tip but I snapped it after using it.

As far as the texture is concerned it's really soft and you can apply it easily. It's always advisable to exfoliate your lips before applying it as it may settle down on your crease which won't look pretty and you will definitely not like to ruin the looks with this beauty. The pigmentation is really great ans single swipe will cover your lips. Also you might want to apply a lip balm or lip conditioner underneath it so that your lips are moisturised and you don't end up with patchy lips. This lipstick does dry out the lips a little bit.

As you can see in the pictures the pigmentation is almost equal in both the swipes. So like I said the color buildup is really great. One thing that I don't like is it needs to be sharpen which will lead to product wastage and since it costs INR799/- for one lipstick and that too for 2.8gm of the product so it's into costlier side and wasting product while sharpening will just break my heart. Another thing is I found this product on the company website and fabbag website only and both had the same price. But I got the product on INR 699/- as I got it in some offer where I got a discount of INR 100/-.
This is how it looked on me. It just brightened up my face.
I am just in love with this lip crayon. The packaging is classy and will suit most of the skin tones. I definitely recommend this product and will try to get my hands on the other shades as well. Hope you all like the review. Please comment below if you have any question or opinion. Thanks for reading. See you all next time till then Keep Smiling.
