## Who should consider it?

Use a shade near your lip colour for a softer outline or a deeper shade for visible definition. Blend the edge inward before gloss if you want the colour transition to stay gentle.

## What should you check before buying?

A creamy liner is not an overnight lip treatment or a substitute for sun protection. The eight-shade listing describes the reviewed US collection; check local availability and the actual shade swatches.

## How to use it

1. Start with a light outline following the natural lip edge.
2. Blend inward where a softer transition is wanted.
3. Add balm or gloss according to the finish you prefer.

## Questions and answers

### Does SoftLine replace Lip Butter Balm?

No. SoftLine is a lip pencil for colour and definition. Lip Butter Balm is a separate moisturising balm. Use one or both according to the result you want.
