Many thanks to reader Devan (@devanskyles on Instagram) for this one. Devan spotted the new L'Oreal Glossy Balm Crayons at her local drugstore this week and shared some pics and swatches with us. L'Oreal has finally jumped on the jumbo twist-up lip color bandwagon (I don't think those limited edition Le Matte and Le Lacque pencils from a few seasons ago count, since they were longer and more narrow than your standard jumbo lip pencils). Take a look:

Devan mentioned that the shade she purchased, Innocent Coral, contains no shimmer or glitter, and that it feels comfortable on the lips. I think it looks lovely on her!
Have you spotted the new L'Oreal Glossy Balm Crayons in your area yet? Thoughts? I'm 99.9% sure these are a new permanent addition to the L'Oreal lineup. If I hear otherwise, you'll be the first to know.
Thanks again, Devan, for the great sighting, pics and swatches. I really appreciate it!
Everyone else has a lip crayon I guess they felt the need to put one out too -_- i wonder if l'oreal will release a maybelline crayon now
ReplyDeleteThese look awesome!
ReplyDeleteI was obsessed the the Le Matte pencils...I don't know why they made them only LE. This color and texture looks AMAZING. I can't wait to find these!
ReplyDeleteThose matte pencils were awesome. They actually felt good and worked well alone and blending with other lip colors. I do wish they'd make them permanent.
DeleteI'm sure I'll splurge and try one or two. Crayons are irresistible!
DeleteOh I can't wait to get my hands on these! !!!
ReplyDeleteI seriously need these in my life :D
ReplyDeleteI'm really into chubby lip pencils at the moment. And glossy too? Yes, please! Anyone know if these have any scent or flavor? Strong fragrance is the main reason I stay away from most L'Oreal lip products.
ReplyDeleteHa, I just contacted L'Oreal USA on their FB page a few weeks ago and asked about these. They had no idea that these were launching soon and just said to stay tuned.... It made me think that an intern runs their social media. I hope we get the matte glosses too, because those look interesting.
ReplyDeleteI definately want to try one of these. That coral looks way more fushia/pink than coral to me though. It annoys me when the color doesn't translate to the name!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this Innocent Coral! I need it!
ReplyDeleteI am going to hunt this down so hard!
ReplyDeleteI need at lest one or two of these! Man between Mac and drugstore I am going broke lol
ReplyDeleteI got all 8 shades at CVS today. My crazy self couldn;t help it lol
ReplyDeleteSo they do NOT have a scent. Cause I Really hate that Loreal Lipstick smell.
They are pigmented and creamy. I really like these.
Just picked these up at Target today. They're nice - pigmented and moisturizing. They don't stain the lips, but I prefer that.
