Hi dolls.
I knew that Korres made fabulous lip balms and body butters,but I never really tried their decorative cosmetics.
What can I say? The lipstick and the liner blew me away.
Let's start with the lipstick review:
Packaging: The lipstick comes in a little pretty cardboard box with a beautiful print.All ingredients are listed and you can clearly see that it is Mineral oil free,Silicone free,Propylene Glycol free and Ethanolamine free.It contains 3,5 /0,12 oz and you can use it for 12 months.The color is number 45 coral.Once you remove the cardboard packaging you can see the lipstick,which comes in a dark brown metal packaging.
What it promises:
"Lipstick with a sheer color for a brilliant high shine.With Mango butter which leaves lips smooth and moisturized." (Source: Packaging)
My 2 cents:
Where should I start?! It glides on really smooth and the color is buildable.You can do one layer for a very sheer tint of color and two or more layers for the ultimate coral wet look.It has a very light scent,that I can't really classify.But it is somewhat pleasant.
The color by itself is very beautiful and vivid.I was expecting it to wear off quickly,but to my surprise it is quite long wearing.
Most importantly it wears off nicely.No random color creased into my cupid's bow or fine lines.
The only thing I don't like is that it doesn't work with lip gloss,since it is rich and creamy by itself.
It moisturizes the lips quite well,but there is nothing like a good lip balm.
Pro's :
-Amazing texture
-almost no scent
-stunning color
-lasts long(not long enough to call it 'long wearing')
-rich and moisturizing
-nicely packaged,no cheap plastic package,
Con's:
-Doesn't work with lipgloss
Conclusion:
I love this lipstick,because it is perfect for any time of the day and it is not as messy as lipgloss (eating,drinking,kissing,smoking)
I definitely want to try out the other colors.
Korres Lipliner Pencil
Packaging : Like the lipstick it comes in a cardboard package.It contains 1.14 gr /0.04 oz of product.You can use it for 24 months.And like the lipstick all ingredients are listed clearly.The pencil itself is white with a plastic cap.
The color is number 2 neutral dark.
What it promises: "Smooth cedar wood pencil,100% Natural base with herbs and vitamins." (Source: Packaging)
My 2 cents: Easy to apply,smooth,soft non drying.Makes a great match with the lipstick and helps it to last longer.
It also looks beautiful by itself or with a nude lipgloss on top <3
I will skip pro's and con's because there are no con's.

I haven't tried any Korres products. Based on your review, the lipstick looks worth trying!
