Sensai Silky Design Rouge

Japanese brand, Sensai, is one of those really good brands that gets overlooked too often. Availability isn’t great admittedly, and the packaging doesn’t exactly sing, but the products are lovely. I raved about the Sensai Bronzing Gel a few weeks back which is a make up artist favourite (and gets called in by the bucket-load) and while I don’t feel quite such raves for the Sensai Silky Design Rouge lip pencils, they don’t deserve to be as hidden as they are.

The neutral shades, especially, are seamless nudes – ones that look like your own lip but better and I found them quite smoothing. They’re balmy in feel with a slight sheen to them, however, I didn’t find the last exceptional. I think you’d need to be prepared to re-do a couple of times. As a gloss fan, I’m used to this and don’t mind in the least, but if you’re a one-application person, then they’re not for you.

The shade line up from top to bottom is: Beniukon, Koubainoi, Ebicha, Nisemomoiro, Soubi and Hiiro. If you like Japanese cosmetics in general, I’m pretty confident you’ll like these too. They’re £28 each HERE.
