Talk about cute packaging! Marc Jacobs Beauty nails it again in the adorableness department with its Kiss Pop Lip Color Stick ($35 CAD). Highly pigmented and long lasting, these gorgeous lipsticks come in adorable lip-crayon shaped tubes. I have today the shade "Heartbreaker", a natural yet playful soft coral. To see some swatches, click......
Packaging:
The Kiss Pop Lip Color Stick comes in an adorable pocket-sized silver chrome plastic tube shaped like a crayon. The tip of the cap is even colored to look like the lead of a color crayon.
The lipstick has a crayon tip and is retractable (but not all the way down into the tube).
Formulation:
With a packaging this cute, I was really expecting something very sheer and balmy but the Kiss Pop Lip Color Stick is actually a very pigmented matte lipstick. "Heartbreaker" is a wearable soft coral. The application is smooth and the product doesn't feel drying on the lips. It also does a good job of clinging to the lips so the wear is longer than expected for a color like this (I can get a good five hours with minimal drinking and eating).

Not only is the packaging unbelievably adorable, the formulation of the Kiss Pop is pigmented and long-lasting. Super impressive!
