The Benefit 'they're real' family is growing and moving on from the eyes where the family already has Mascara and eyeliner, we now have LIPS and more eyes which are coming in a separate post, but today we are doing they're real Double The Lip!
The description goes 'Get fuller-looking lips in one easy stroke with they’re real! double the lip'. So what you get is not just a lipstick, but a lipstick and lipliner in one, a total revelation for those like me who never ever remember the need for a lip liner and I can count on one hand how many I actually own! The custom Teardrop tip is said to grab and define your lip line as well as filling the lips in with a complimenting colour for both the appearance of volume and dimension.
There are eight double the lip products within the range and all of them are semi-matte with everything from your very nude neutral to the brighter more daring shades and here they are:

There are eight double the lip products within the range and all of them are semi-matte with everything from your very nude neutral to the brighter more daring shades and here they are:
- Nude Scandal,
- Lusty Rose,
- Juicy Berry
- Pink Thrills

- Fuschia Forever
- Flame Game
- Criminally Coral
- Revved-Up Red
What I love is how the liner and the lipstick compliment one another and work so well together. They are also not only really pigmented but also really moisturising too which is an added bonus plus the formula is so lightweight that once applied to the lips you forget that it is there. The longevity is also really impressive, once applied you get a good 4-5 hours wear time and after lunch when I have re-applied it stays again for the same amount of time and impressively I have found very very little transfer onto glasses or mugs when I have had a drink.
I am finding it hard to pick a favourite shade, I can narrow it down to three - Lusty Rose, Juicy Berry and Nude Scandal and those are the three I have used the most. I am not brave enough to even attempt to pull off the coral but it is beautiful. If you have been wanting to add to your lipstick stash then I would definitely recommend investing in one, of these. They are just a little bit different to anything else you will own and regardless of your skin colour or tone there is something for everyone. Priced at £16.50 each double the lip is widely available from the likes of Benefit, John Lewis, House of Fraser, Boots stores, Lookfantastic, and ASOS to name just a few!
What do you think to these? Do any of the shades catch your eye?
I just reviewed these too and I am in love!!! They are genius!! I only have two shades but will be going back for more!
ReplyDeletewow that is really clever and I think I would probably be the same as you, must remember to turn it! I absolutely love the Lusty Rose shade! I am glad you mention the lipsticks are also moisturising as I find some of the brighter shades can dry out the lips.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of these before, but they are really clever. I love the pop of colour from the bright pink.
ReplyDeleteThese look amazing. I really need to try them as I love the idea of the lip liner and lipstick in one x
ReplyDeleteMy first thought when looking at the design of these was whether I would be able to master the liner portion on the lower lip. It sounds like it takes a bit of getting used to, but I do like the idea of having both in one product. The Nude Scandal and Lusty Rose are my favourites x
ReplyDeleteI'm a massive fan of the Rollerlash mascara (I think you told me it was great) and I love the They're real mascara too. This looks an interesting concept I must admit. Would love to try it out.
ReplyDeleteGood idea, but it must be so tricky to apply it with the lipstick upside down for your bottom lip.
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness these look amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI love the there real mascara so I need to give the rest of the family a try.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of these but can totally see why they'd be tricky to use. I do flipping love a lipstick though!
ReplyDeleteThose shades look absolutely stunning! I really need to buy more lipsticks.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried these yet, but I love the concept! The shades are great too!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try these. The shades look beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThese look interesting. I love that they are 2 products in one. Wonder if I could master using them too.
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time hearing about these. They're super cool! Love the pops of color form the bright pink!
ReplyDeleteThese are different!! Something I'd usually want to try too They are very cool!
ReplyDeleteI love they're real eyeshadow and mascara. I like look of lusty rose x
ReplyDeleteI really love the look of these. I'm struggling to pick a favourite shade. I'm always drawn to berry shades x
ReplyDeleteThese sound and look amazing, I need to try them out myself! xo
ReplyDeleteI'm not personally a fan of how little product you get for the money but the shades are very pretty xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea! I'd love to try these - I rarely bother with lipliner but do love the effect when my make up artist does it.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of combining the lipstick and liner in one package and the colours look good too.
ReplyDeleteFuschia forever catch my eyes! But if given a chance i'd love to try all and then do the mix and match too!
ReplyDeleteI love the two-tone lipsticks. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteDo you have pictures of the final on your lips? To see how they look when applied?
I really fancy trying these, but I know that I'll be forgetting to turn them around to do my bottom lip as well, LOL!!
ReplyDeleteOh what a interesting idea prob be quite tricky to get the hang of though! Love the dark pink and red shades
