ELF Nude Nectar Lip Stain Review

Hello sweeties,
I am someone who is crazy behind lip stains and I never miss a chance to pick up a lip stain if available. The reason I prefer lip stains so much is because they last on the lips forever and just one swipe is needed for full coverage! So I picked up some elf lip stains in my haul and this is the one I picked to try out. Let’s see whether it lived up to my expectations or not.

My Experience with ELF Nude Nectar Lip Stain:

Elf lip stain comes in 4 gorgeous shades mostly on the darker side, majorly in pinks and reds but this seemed a bit of a different shade to me so I got this one. It comes in a sleek plastic packaging and would be a great option for gifting.

The lip stain comes in a cylindrical packaging which looks exactly like a giant coloured marker. What I like the most is that the colour of the packaging is exactly like the colour of the lip stain so it becomes easy to distinguish in our stash. It is lightweight and super handy.

The shade that I picked up is a unique one and not like the regular shades. It is a rusty red colour which is not that bold but very noticeable on the lips. The tip is exactly like a marker pen and gets applied nicely on the lips without much mess. But the sad part is that the lip stain has to be applied very carefully on the lips because it creates a very neat outline and if we go wrong with the perfect application then our lip’s shape might just look very weird because it is very similar to drawing an outline in the painting.

This shade is really dark and gives an instant pop to the lips making the skin appear relatively brighter and glowing than usual. And by the way, does that shade look anywhere near to nude? Absolutely not! It is a very vibrant shade and definitely a pleasing one. Although the application is a bit difficult because uneven colour patches may be seen if not applied correctly, but it soon settles down to an even colour the moment it dries up. It leaves a very beautiful stain on my lips and it just feels like I do not have anything on my lips! So those who do not like heavy lipsticks and glosses, lip stains are the perfect choice for you.

The stain does not transfer anywhere and it stays as it is for the entire day. It stayed for a really good amount of 6-7 hours on my lips and finally faded when I got something to eat. Yes it does last better than anything I have tried and if it is still there on your lips when you return back home, a makeup remover will be needed to remove it off. I am in love with this lip stain and will definitely grab a few more pieces whenever I spot these cuties!

  1. I used to be so fascinated by this kind of packaging, but not anymore. I have come to realise that it may impart uneven finish. :/

  6. I really like the packaging, never tried something like this before. But if this is going to dry up and impart an uneven finish, I’ll skip it. You look stunning btw.. 😀
