Having received the "Whisper" shade in the Sephora "Give Me Nude Lips" set a few months ago, I couldn't wait for summer to roll around so I could give it a try, paired with a bronzed and highlighted face! This pencil has not let me down! While I've used it exclusively for my lips, I don't think I can go back to a conventional lipstick. The application is smooth, the colour pay-off is rich and matte, and the shade is absolutely beautiful (even on someone as fair-skinned as I).The only downside is the potential for melting in warmer temperatures, which I've already begun to notice. However, if stored properly, this pencil is a gem!
