Rhode Peptide Lip Form Evaluate

Rhode launched a brand new lip pencil known as the Peptide Lip Form – The Contouring Lip Shaper ($24 every). I liked the teasers and as an enormous fan of neutrals I used to be very excited to attempt these. I shared a try-on in motion right here and I used to be actually shocked by the suggestions! The suggestions was very blended and after attempting these for almost two weeks I lastly have my assessment.

The Peptide Lip Form is a creamy twist up lip product that I’d say is in between a lip liner and chubby stick. The formulation is creamy and glides on with a really easy utility, nevertheless it has a semi-matte wanting end.

I feel the colours are SO stunning, however only some work for me. Lighter neutrals are so tough for me to put on as a result of I’ve a darker lip tone and whereas many look SO good swatched on my hand, they find yourself wanting ashy or dry on my lips due to the distinction (ie MAC Crème Cup, Blankety and Fantasy or Tom Ford Blush Nude seem like white out on my lips).

Shades I hauled:

• Bend is a peach brown beige
• Twist is a impartial gentle brown
• Raise is a lightweight dusty pink
• Lunge is a rosy beige tan
• Press is a pink mauve tone
• Lean is a medium brown
• Stability espresso caramel brown

The largest grievance I noticed was in regards to the lasting energy and I semi disagree with the rants that got here throughout the feedback and messages about these. These aren’t long-wear lip pencils and I feel most of you who had been upset anticipated this to be like a lip liner. The feel of the Peptide Lip Form is softer and the pigment/texture isn’t dense like a pencil so it’s extra like a lipstick in pencil kind. They’re designed to be extra like a contour relatively than a definer.

That being stated the lasting energy isn’t one of the best however they undoubtedly don’t disappear instantly. If I put on these all around the lip, they fade the quickest from the middle of the lip, however they do linger across the edges a very long time on me.

I actually love the concept and idea, however I don’t love the formulation. I additionally don’t hate them. I like these greatest when topped with a gloss. If I had been to do my order over I’d have solely picked up Lunge and Press. I could make the others work with an added gloss however this makes them extra excessive upkeep than I would really like.

Swatches:

Under sporting: Armani Luminous Silk Basis in 6.5, Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Powder in Medium, Rhode Pocket Blush in Freckle, Tom Ford Eyeshadow Quad in Peach Glamour + Make-up by Mario Grasp Mattes, Anastasia Beverly Hills Forehead Definer Caramel, Tarte Lights, Digicam Lashes Mascara

So backside line, in case you ask me are these well worth the buy? I’d say they’re okay, however there are higher formulation on the market and I choose an everyday lip pencil than a chubby stick. I do assume the Ilia Lip Sketch for the same idea (chubby stick) is best, however I wasn’t an enormous fan of the end. The Pat McGrath Dramatique Lip Pencils are significantly better for lasting energy, however these additionally pull matte and I feel on the whole I simply really feel higher with a shiny lip vs one thing that’s matte. Chanel had essentially the most unbelievable Lip Crayon again within the day, they’ve since discontinued it, nevertheless it was one of the best lip crayon I attempted.
