The packaging is sleek and represents the actual color of the lip crayon, making it easy to identify the shade. You need to twist from the bottom to glide up and down the lip crayon, and it comes in a retractable form. The manufacturing date is engraved on the tube. All other information is provided only in the tear sheet and not on the actual product.
The texture is very creamy and smooth. It is super pigmented and non-sticky. As it is a matte lip crayon, it gives a powder finish with no shine. It glides easily on the lips and is very lightweight. It is not at all drying. Because of its creaminess, it tends to break. The texture is created in such a way that the color smudges and gives a graded look. I have pigmented lips, and this graded lips concept did not work for me. The graded effect looked like a normal lipstick that is rubbed off around the sides, showing up more like a mistake rather than an effect created using a specific tool. The smudger is not that great, and I am not going to use it. It does accentuate fine lines and dry patches when smudged with this smudger. Overall, I definitely love wearing this product just as a normal lipstick.
