5 Christine Lip Shades Flying Off Chase Value Shelves 

Some shades sit on the shelf. Others we cannot keep in stock. Christine sits firmly in the second group, and the reason is simple: a lip pencil that doubles as a full lip colour gives you a defined edge, longer wear, and no bleeding into fine lines. That combination has quietly taken over from standalone lipstick for daily wear. We looked at what actually moves fastest across our Christine collection and pulled the five shades customers keep coming back for. Below is what each one suits, who it flatters, and how to wear it properly. Start with your undertone.

Lip pencils outlast lipstick because the drier formula grips the lip rather than sitting on top of it.

French Rose and Dew Mauve are the two everyday shades that suit almost every Pakistani skin tone.

Why Lip Pencils Are Outselling Lipstick

A lip pencil was traditionally the step before lipstick. Now it is often the whole step.

• Sharper Definition: You control the edge precisely, which lipstick from a bullet cannot do. 
• Longer Wear: The formula is drier and more pigmented, so it stays put through meals and long days. 
• No Feathering: Colour stops where you draw it instead of bleeding outwards. 
• One Product, Two Uses: Christine's pencils work on both lips and eyes, which halves what you carry.
• Fill in the whole lip rather than just outlining. Outlining alone leaves a visible ring once the centre wears off.
  

The Top 5 Shades

French Rose 107

The one we restock most often. A soft rose that reads natural on fair to medium skin and gives deeper tones a clean, polished finish rather than an obvious lip.

Best for: office, university, everyday wear. Wear it with: nothing else, or a clear balm over the top for softness.

Shop French Rose 107.

Dew Mauve 116

The closest thing in the range to a true "your lips but better" shade. Mauve has a cool undertone, which makes it more wearable than a warm pink on most Pakistani skin tones.

Best for: daily wear, work, anyone who finds pink too bright. Wear it with: a nude gloss for a fuller look.

Scarlet 125

Every collection needs one red, and this is ours. A clean, true scarlet with no orange or blue lean, which is why it works across such a wide range of skin tones.

Best for: weddings, Eid, evening events. Wear it with: a sharp outline and a tissue blot between two layers for staying power.

Shop Scarlet 125.

Salmon 132

The warm coral of the range and the one that has picked up fastest this season. Bright without tipping into orange, and particularly good on medium to deep skin.

Best for: summer, daytime events, anyone who wants colour without a red. Wear it with: minimal eye makeup, since it carries the whole face on its own.

Shop Salmon 132.

Rusty Raisin 122

The nineties brown that keeps coming back. Deep, muted, and slightly warm, it is the most requested shade among customers who want something darker than a nude but not a full red.

Best for: winter, evening, deeper skin tones especially. Wear it with: a matte finish and nothing on top. Gloss dilutes it.

Which Shade Suits Your Skin Tone?

If you can only buy one, make it French Rose 107. It is the shade that works hardest across the widest range of tones and occasions.

How to Wear a Lip Pencil as Full Lip Colour

• Start with clean, balmed lips, then blot so the surface is not slippery.
• Outline first, following your natural lip line rather than overdrawing or underdrawing.
• Fill the entire lip, working from the outside inwards.
• Blot with a tissue, then apply a second thin layer for longer wear.
• Sharpen the pencil before each use for a clean edge.

For a softer everyday look, apply with your fingertip rather than drawing directly. It diffuses the edge and takes the intensity down a level.

Building a Shade Wardrobe

You do not need ten. Three covers almost everything.

One everyday nude or rose: French Rose 107 or Dew Mauve 116. One red for occasions: Scarlet 125. One deeper tone for evening: Rusty Raisin 122.

Add Whiterose 103 if you like an ombré lip, since a lighter shade in the centre creates dimension.

Once you have your shades, keeping them findable matters. Our guide to affordable makeup organizers in Pakistan covers how to store a growing collection without losing half of it.

Common Mistakes With Lip Pencils

• Outlining Only: The centre wears off first and leaves a visible ring. Fill the whole lip. 
• Using a Blunt Pencil: A dull tip cannot follow your lip line. Sharpen before every application. 
• Skipping Balm: Dry lips grab pigment unevenly, and the colour looks patchy. 
• Overdrawing Too Far: A slight overline reads full. A heavy one reads obvious. 
• Applying Gloss Over a Deep Shade: It thins the colour and shortens the wear time.

Key Takeaways

• French Rose 107 and Dew Mauve 116 are the two safest everyday shades.
• Scarlet 125 is the red that works across the widest range of skin tones.
• Rusty Raisin 122 suits deeper tones and winter wear best.
• Fill the whole lip rather than outlining alone.
• Three shades cover everyday, occasion, and evening.
