I was curious about Memebox in-house makeup for a while, and after testing several products, it’s now time to tell you all about it. While the brow mascara was sent to me free as an apology for my missing order, I actually purchased I’m Lip Crayon #06 Bella on my own, because that deep magenta color looked so mesmerizing on that pretty Asian model on the site!
Here’s what Memebox has to say about this chubby stick:
“Memebox I’m Lip Crayon delivers the vivid color of lip pencil, the lustrous shine of a lipstick and staying power of a lip tint. This 3-in-1 effect creates a versatile look and pencil-style applicator allows accurate application. One single swipe will deliver highly pigmented color that really lasts. This lip crayon contains natural ingredients, macadamia seed oil, argan oil, jojoba seed oil, and rose hip oil to form a protective moisture layer of the lips.”
See, not only the pictures, but the description sounds intriguing! After all, the convenience of chubby lippie sticks is almost unrivaled, and the color payoff is always rewarding. #06 Bella is a stunner and offers great pigmentation and longevity – the color lasted 5 hours on my lips, and even after that initial buttery layer was gone, there was still a beautiful tint left that made me look pulled together.

Did you catch that this formula includes some nice nourishing oils, like argan and jojoba? When my lip products are that buttery, they always seem to transfer easily, and that was the case with this one, too, so be careful when giving out those hugs and kisses.
This shade looks like a very dark cherry in the tube, but on the lips looks more like a rosy magenta. Either way, it’s a super flattering color that can complement a wide range of complexions.
Swatch reference: My skin tone is between MAC NC15 and NW15 with neutral undertones. Sometimes I can wear NW20 in the Summer. I thought this would be useful to know, since all screens show colors differently, and I also don’t have a studio setup with consistent lighting. Hope that helps!
Do you need this? If you are a fan of chubby pencils, and you like the range of colors these come in, then I definitely recommend picking up a few shades. The formula is very balmy, buttery, and smooth; it has some serious lasting power and offers easily buildable pigmentation.
WHERE TO BUY: $7.00 USD. Available at Memebox.
