VERMOUTH: Plant-Based Lip Crayons in Ravishing Colors
Imagine gorgeous lip color crayons that are replenishing, blendable, plastic-free, compostable and super glam… that’s the Vermouth Flight Pack experience. These crayons come in Flight boxes of five, and you can also find their newly launched “Vermouth To Go” tube, which is a cute carry case to pop in just one crayon for purse or pocket. The new customer fave flight “In the Nude Friday” is a versatile color that’s low key subtle yet still very much there for a polished look. Their flight boxes contain everything from bold reds to dark broody hues to barely-there hints of color.
ORIGINAL FLIGHT OF FIVE CRAYONS
Vermouth’s Original, Flight is plastic-free. These lip crayons blend like a dream and last for hours. Hand-made in small batches in their atelier, you can mix-and-match them to taste.
They are:
Monday: Strong, buildable pink, verging on magenta, with cool undertones.
Tuesday: Classic polished nude with hints of caramel, structured with warm brick
Wednesday: A confidence-building stop-sign red, balanced to make it universally flattering
Thursday: A sweet everyday plum, supported with a mix of deep brick and flattering pink tones
Friday: Sheer, easy raisin – great on its own or blended to bring other colors closer to neutral.
