Sugar Matte As Hell Lip Crayon in Rose Dawson: Review,Price,Swatches and LOTD

The moment I heard of this shade name,I was wondering where have my ears gone through it earlier.. it was surely not new ! I never had a class mate with that name nor any teacher which could've been the possibility given the Irish School background and the Anglo Indian teachers.. but no! Time passed and the shade name "Rose Dawson" took a back seat and the other qualities of the lip crayon surfaced. This is my first experience with the brand Sugar Cosmetics and me being a 'natural looking lips' lover couldn't hold myself back in owning it. Their lipsticks and lip crayons are quite a hit along the makeup enthusiasts and why not when the world is going gaga over matte lips for the past few years now.

Packaging: 

 In the world of chubbier, plus size crayons , Sugar Matte As Hell lip Crayon comes as gym going toned version :D These are slimmer to their counterparts and truly speaking better to hold than those chunky ones. Another pros is that you hardly come across a lipstick/gloss/crayon that has its shade name printed on it rather than having a sticker placed at either end.
THIS makes it extra! It has a colour coded end.. life made easy!! The only thing we dislike is the need to be sharpened. This makes you carry a sharpener along with it wherever you travel, also leads to product wastage and we hate the hard earned money getting sharpened and trashed.

Shade: Rose Dawson

Coming back to the familiarity with the shade name, I paused and pondered and on one sleepless night it occurred to me that if Kate Winslet (Rose) of the epic movie Titanic had married Leonardio DiCaprio (Jack Dawson) she would've become Rose Dawson :D
Moment of Enlightenment!!!
Rose Dawson is a milky-rosy-pink with a hint of mauve and a great shade for everyday use. It would go along with any outfit and and colour. I like to pair it with a long and thick winged eyeliner or the cult Smokey eye but it would look beautiful just like that too.

Truth be told, I'm a fan of rosy mauvy pinks!!

Texture :

 Applying Sugar Matte As Hell Lip Crayon is a dream. It is super creamy to apply. No tugging pulling is involved like the regular mattes. It settles for a matte-as-hell finish. The formula doesn't dry out the lips which is a characteristic feature of matte lip products but you do feel that you have something on your lips. Being matte, it does accentuate the fine lines.. (exfoliate babe!!!) 
Although it applies creamy,it starts looking patchy and crumbly once it settles. I didn't particularly find any odour or taste in it and it transfers very slightly.

 

Pigmentation:

 It scores high in the pigmentation department and is good enough to cover any pigmentation that you have on your lips.

Staying Power:
Sugar Matte As Hell Lip Crayon in Rose Dawson stays put for good 5+ hours. Like with every lip product, it's longevity depends on what and how frequently you eat. Matte lipsticks and greasy food are enemies anyway.. you got the deal.. right? All in all I'm really impressed with its staying power not forgetting it's a pale shade to stay on for so long.

Over All Thoughts:
 Sugar Matte As Hell Lip Crayon in Rose Dawson applies smoothly, is highly pigmented, stays put for long and is a beautiful shade BUT it accentuates fine lines,appears patchy and needs sharpening! It looks stunning from a distance and in photographs but the closer you get the more uneven it comes across!
