Layering Lip Bar (Cream) Review

I have tried all previous versions of the LANEIGE Lip Bar, and all of them are designed lớn create the signature Korean gradient lip look effortlessly.

I found the very first version and the third version (the Two Tone Matte Lip Bar) too drying for my parched lips, & they always make my lips look flaky & dry. I stopped using them because they simply don’t work for me.

My favourite of the previous versions was the LANEIGE Two Tone Tint Lip Bar. I loved how it gave my lips a dewy look & how hydrating it was. In fact, I loved it so much it is one of the lipsticks I always reach out for. Considering that I own more than 50 lipsticks, it tells you a lot about how much I enjoyed it.

The new LANEIGE Layering Lip Bar has a gorgeous packaging (in rose gold!) that really caught my eyes. Its six-tone design also grabbed my attention; I expected it to offer an even more seamless gradient compared to the two-tone ones, and it didn’t disappoint.

I find that the LANEIGE Layering Lip Bar was able to lớn help me create a beautiful gradient without needing to vì any blending or smudging – something that I had to bởi vì with the previous LANEIGE Lip Bars.

I lượt thích that I could use a lighter hand to get a barely-there look & if I wanted something more outstanding, I simply had to apply it with a stronger hand.

My shade (#6) is a beautiful coral that I really love. It helps brighten up my complexion instantly và I even use it as a blush sometimes if I really want to lớn go for that “fruity, juicy” look.

The Layering Lip Bar has certainly taken over the #1 spot in my heart as my favourite LANEIGE Lip Bar currently. I’m sorry, Two Tone Tint Lip Bar, it looks like I’ll be picking up this newest version more regularly from now on.

One of the first few lipsticks I ever bought was LANEIGE’s Two Tone Lip Bar – I wanted lớn try creating the Korean gradient lips look, and was floored by the idea that a lipstick could actually achieve that effect by having two shades in one product.

While the first edition didn’t work so well for me (the colour gradient I hoped khổng lồ achieve never quite materialised), I never gave up hope & bought the Two Tone Tint Lip Bar when it was introduced. This came in a much more hydrating formula, and I loved the pop of colour that came with the lip balm.

Just when I thought I had met my favourite lip gradient product, LANEIGE released the ultimate game-changer: a lip product that has SIX tones! While the previous editions of the lip bars had difficulty achieving a seamless colour gradient (not an easy feat, really, when you only have two colours), this brand-new Layering Lip Bar can easily create your desired colour gradient!

The Layering Lip Bar glides on the lips very smoothly, which is a huge plus. It also gives a nice, moisturising sheen lớn your lips, which the Two Tone Lip Bar isn’t capable of (see comparison photos). If I really had khổng lồ nitpick, I would say that the cream lipstick is not meant for long-wear: it is not transfer-proof, và you will have to touch up after about three khổng lồ four hours, or after a meal.

I tried #14 Candid Brick, which is a lovely, warm shade of rose that is flattering on all skin tones. It is so easy khổng lồ wear that it is not just work appropriate, but also something you can pull off on any other casual day. If you are not keen on bold shades, I highly recommend that you opt for this wearable MLBB colour.

Despite being a matte lipstick, the Layering Lip Bar feels comfortable & does not dry out my lips at all.

I would give this new lipstick from LANEIGE plus points for the stylish and convenient packaging! I lượt thích the colours and gradients and the softness of the shades! The pop of colour on my lips instantly brightened my complexion.

My only gripe about the Layering Lip Bar is that is not very long-lasting, and is not transfer-proof, so you will have lớn reapply this lipstick after every meal.

While it is not obvious that there are six different shades, I can still tell there are different layers of colours on my lips. The application is very smooth và glides easily on my lip, which is great!

Mine is in the shade No. 19, Genie Red, and has a matte finish. It is officially described the brand as a true, deep red; however, I found that the colour was closer lớn a vivid pink when worn on my lips, which is consistent with the images and swatches found online.

This isn’t a shade that I typically gravitate khổng lồ because I prefer wearing MLBB colours, but I’m glad I gave it a try because it actually doesn’t look half bad on me. The Layering Lip Bar is very buildable – it looks natural with one to lớn two swipes, but if you apply a few more times, it appears as a hot, bright pink!

However, I found that the application wasn’t a complete breeze: I’ve never used any lip bars before prior khổng lồ this product, so I was puzzled as lớn how I should be wearing it.

What I understand is that it isn’t meant lớn apply evenly per se because it is supposed to lớn appear as a natural, gradual gradient. While that takes some getting used to, I appreciate the versatility of the product. It also goes on smoothly and is less drying than other Korean lip products that I’ve tried.

All in all, I would say this sản phẩm is worth a try, especially for fans of the Korean gradient lip look!
