Review: No7 Poppy King Lip Crayon Raindrops Collection Singing

Even though I've heard about Poppy King quite some time ago, I've recently met her products. When I listen or read her interviews she says that she designed her lipstick line because she couldn't find lipsticks she liked on the market. When I put on the lip crayon very first time, I realised what Poppy King means by that sentence.

I always like to try new designs, textures or colours from lipstick world. The lip crayon is very practical and easy to apply from the pencil. Raindrops Collection is best described by Poppy King as a selection of bright, happy colours. Singing is one of those happy colours which is a bright fuschia pink. It's pigmented and it gives sheer finish.

Singing is moisturising and silky. It is non-drying and lasts up to 5 hours. It transfers, however lasts through a cup of coffee. It does not have a smell or taste which makes it very comfortable to wear. The greatest thing about Poppy King's lip crayon (and also lipstick) is that they are buildable. You can build the colour and coverage layer by layer without being flaky. 

I am very glad to finally meet Poppy King's lip pencils. They give you easy and smooth application with the feeling of moisturised and full lips.
