I love the color but let me get to some points beyond that. 😀 This pencil is so matte that it makes my lips looks like a shrunken tomato (I have thick lips so you can imagine! 😛 ). It isn’t difficult to use it on the lips, it doesn’t tug or pull but once applied my lips look shrunk.(This was the same problem I had with the Kryolan lip pencil as well but I had other issues with that as well!).
Throw Me a Line is a Pro longwear lip pencil. The staying power is very good. It lasted on me for an entire outing with friends (from morning 10 to about 7 in the evening) which I thought was good except that it faded and I did not like the fact that my lips looked shrunk.
The major factor which might really not favour the product is its price! 1300 bucks for a lip pencil! Are you kidding me! (I bought it anyway :P) If it wasn’t for the color, there is no way I would spend so much on a lip liner! And this isn’t a soft orange either. It is a full on bright red orange so it isn’t a color one might wear regularly. So spending so much on something which might not be used regularly is definitely a point to think about.

Final word: If it wasn’t for the color this wouldn’t have been on my list. Way too expensive for a lip pencil although the quality and staying power is really good!!
Which is your favourite lip pencil? Do leave your suggestions below!
very expensive..but lovely shade
ya Preethi 🙁 The entire Hey, Sailor! collection is priced unusually high. :/
thats a unique shade deeps 🙂 surprisingly it doesnt look that matte in the swatch.. I guess its a universal problem with matte lip liners.. I had a similar exp with bhcosmetics lip liners.. my lips looked exactly like a shrunken tomato 🙁
It seems pretty creamy while swatching but translates a whole lot differently on the lips.
Lol so all of us have faced the “shrunken tomoato” problem! and I thought it was only me because of my horrible lips 😀
