When it comes to applying lipstick, I’ll hold my hand up and say that I don’t always apply lip liner. OK scrap that. I normally never apply lip liner. I know I’m a bad beauty blogger. But I always seem to forget that step. But now that won’t be an issue. As Benefit has launched a fab new product that combines lipstick and lip liner together. I know it’s genius! Now if you remember a few years back Benefit launched the pretty fabulous They’re Real mascara. Then it was the They’re Real eyeliners. And now the family has grown with the introduction of the They’re Real Double The Lip collection.
Now this concept is pretty unique. Not only can you save time but you can also achieve fuller-looking lips in one easy stroke thanks for these new lipsticks. As the They’re Real Double The Lip features a lip liner and lipstick in one. The custom teardrop tip lines and defines your lips, while the bottom half fills in your lips with a complimenting lipstick. This is honestly genius in my opinion!
There are eight shades in the collection and all of them offer a creamy, semi-matter lipstick that comes in neutrals, pinks, reds, berries and corals. So there is definitely a colour to suit everyone! The eight shades are:
- Nude Scandal,
- Lusty Rose,
- Juicy Berry
- Pink Thrills
- Fuschia Forever
- Flame Game
- Criminally Coral
- Revved-Up Red
I love these. The idea is genius and I love how the lip colour and liner blend together on your lips to give you a subtle definition. The 90’s trend of contrasting and quite obvious lip liner are over thankfully! The key thing to remember though is that when you apply it, you need to remember to pivot the tube around to fill in your lower lips. I find these to be incredibly moisturising on the lips. They’re not quite semi-matte in my opinion as they’re more of a creamy velvet texture. But they’re not overly shiny or glossy either. They are lovely though and they lasted a good 4-5 hours on my lips before they needed to be reapplied.
You can pick up the Benefit They’re Real Double The Lip from John Lewis for £16.50 each.
What do you think of these? Do you like the liner and lipstick combination?
Ooo these look luch. Feeling the red one, looks like a purchase at the weekend! lol, thanks hun 🙂 x
I am the same as you and never apply lip liner so you are not alone, I do love the shades of this range, and would have no excuse for not completing the first step x
this is a brand i know i enjoy wearing and i know i would love those
I’ve seen so many bloggers raving about these, and I quite like the idea behind them. I’m not one who usually applies liner either, but I would definitely consider using this product.
Omg what incredible an incredible concept having the lipliner built in. I’ve used Benefit’s mascara in the past, but haven’t tried any of their lip products. I definitely want to purchase one of these to see if I like it.
In love with all of these shades!!
Oooo these look fab!!

Never been a fan of liners as feel i would never do it right but like how this comes with. Glad i’m not alone there haha. Lovely shades and adore they’re real mascara and eyeshadow, so think i will love this too! Thank you for sharing 🙂
Not a bad price, I can’t line my lips to save my life so these double the lips should come in handy!
I really want to try some of these but I can not for the life of me find anywhere which has them all out to swatch and see which shade I want x
I never use lip liners either. It’s an extra step in my makeup routine that I really don’t need! These lipsticks look amazing. I haven’t really adventured too much into Benefit products, but that now needs to change!
I sure do I think it’s a fantastic idea. It might take me a few goes to get each in the right place in terms of angling but I’m sure it can’t be that hard.
I love Benefit make-up. However I’m going have to give this a miss as I can’t wear lipstick due to skin rashes. Lovely colours. xx
Benefit really do have a great range, these look fab…love the shades 🙂
I really like them and do find them really easy to use and I love that they have the inclusion of a lip liner which is something I always forget to buy x
Such a beautiful lippies! I love the Packaging and I love Benefit products! Glad that you share this
Such a smart idea! I like the shades too, I’ll definitely be looking to test these out soon.
This range is stunning! I really need these as I tend to always skip eyeliner from my routine out of sheer laziness! x
Oh my gosh, every time I read your blog I get distracted by the beautiful photos!!
This product is so interesting. I am really incapable to applying lipstick though so I don’t think it’s for me.
I think this is a genius idea! I am forever losing my lip pencils, or I can never find a perfect match and this solves all my problems. The only problem I have now is which one to buy first!
I’m so intrigued by these, they look amazing. I need to check them out in store! xo
love multitasking makeup products so this one is right up my alley, and those shades perfect!
There are so many pretty shades, I definitely need to try one.
This look so good! I am also guilty of not usually applying lip liner hahah. 😛 As always, Benefit have smashed it with the packaging too!
