Lip Makeup - LV Crayon Lip Liner

The LV Crayon Lip Liner is the latest addition to Louis Vuitton's beauty universe, conceived by Creative Director Dame Pat McGrath. This long wear lip liner sculpts and defines with each precise stroke, delivering sharp, immaculate contours or softly diffused, gradient effects. Available in 10 universally flattering shades, the formula offers intense colour payoff with buildable dimension, pairing seamlessly with LV Rouge lipstick or LV Baume lip balm for effortlessly refined looks.

What is the use of a lip liner pencil?

A lip liner pencil is an essential tool for achieving a polished, flawless lip with sculpted precision and structure. This long lasting lip liner defines the contour sharply whilst preventing colour from feathering into the surrounding skin, ensuring a clean and sophisticated finish. The LV Crayon Lip Liner's long wear formula glides on with a weightless, velvety feel, delivering saturated colour in a single stroke for a refined result.

How to use a lip pencil?

Applying a lip pencil generally involves three key steps: priming, defining, and filling. Begin by dusting a light veil of translucent powder around the lip area, or nourish the lips with LV Baume lip balm for a more comfortable base. Following the expert guidance of Creative Director Dame Pat McGrath, trace the long wear lip liner carefully along the natural contours of both the upper and lower lips.

For a fuller, more voluptuous effect, fill in the entire lip with the waterproof lip liner to create a primed, long-wearing base, then layer with a complementary shade of LV Rouge Satin for a naturally refined finish. For a softly blurred look, use a lip brush to gently diffuse the lip liner pencil, focusing on the Cupid's bow and centre of the lower lip for a seamlessly faded edge. Once the contour is perfected, apply LV Rouge Matte and press the colour onto the lips with a fingertip to achieve a velvety, lived-in matte effect.

How to pick a lip pencil shade?

The LV Crayon Lip Liner is available in 10 versatile shades to suit every complexion and preference. When selecting a long lasting lip liner shade, the guiding principle is to choose a tone that closely matches the lipstick or sits one shade deeper, adding sculpted dimension whilst maintaining overall harmony. Those drawn to a natural look may favour 192 Nude Quest or the cool-toned 290 Rose Whisper, whilst those seeking a bolder statement will find depth and drama in 490 Plum Comet or the warm-toned 896 Monogram Rouge.
