NYX Cosmetics’ Jumbo Lip Pencil in Coffee

I have no idea why this is called “Coffee.” I have never seen coffee this color, no matter how much creamer is added to it.

Aside from that, this is a decent shade for paler skintones. It could look striking on medium skintones, as a contrast. I don't know that it's fully opaque, despite having fairly good coverage when I swatched it. It also didn't stick around for too long - standard behavior from the NYX Jumbo Lip Pencils.

A montage of three images: top left, close-up of the lip color in the tube; top right, the color applied over bare skin, to better show the shade; and below, the color applied to the lips.

I'm not sure if this pencil got discontinued, or just renamed to “Irish Coffee” (which still doesn't look like this color.)
