Have you seen these new Laneige Two Tone Lip Bar lipsticks? With two colors in one lipstick, you’ll be able to create your own custom two tone mix easily. The idea of being able to achieve gradation lips using just a single product really appeals to a busy woman like me. I also got intrigued with this new lipstick after seeing photos of the shade Daring Darling.
Daring Darling is one of Song Hye Kyo’s shade picks from the new line. If you don’t know who Song Hye Kyo is, she is a Korean actress and is the brand model/endorser. I think she gained popularity when she starred in the Korean drama, Full House.

The lip swatches here are a bit light. Once I’m able to buy and review these shades, I’ll post lip swatches that are more accurate. 🙂
PRECAUTIONS
1. Slide “down” the button when you want to push “up” the lip bar
2. Do not slide down the button when it’s covered by the cap
3. Slim, rectangular shape and extra moisturising properties makes the lipstick easy to break. Please slide down the button one level at a time.
4. Be careful not to scratch the lip bar when you put the cap on.
MY TOP PICKS
As with Song Hye Kyo, No. 2 Red Blossom and No. 5 Daring Darling are also at the top of my wish list. Next are No. 1 Magenta Muse, No. 9 Dolly Grape, No. 10 Burgundy Love and No. 4 Milk Blurring.
I would get all 10 shades if I could because I really love them all. But they cost Php1,200 locally, so I might get 3 or 4 shades first. Then eventually get more. 😀
PRICE: around $27
BUY IT HERE: Amazon
I already love both Daring Darling and Red Blossom and will definitely get both soon, plus another one or two more shades. What about you? What shades are you getting from the new Laneige Two Tone Lip Bar lipstick line?

Hi Dee! This is also the first time I’ve encountered a lipstick like this. Usually, I see two tone lipsticks where the other color is just at the center. I’m really excited to try these out! 🙂
What a brilliant idea! I´m head over heels for Burgundy Love already. Why must they be so expensive though?! T_T
Hi Connu! I know, right? They’re so beautiful but a bit expensive. I can’t wait to try them out so I can find out if they’re really worth the price. 😉
koreans always has best ideas when it comes to makeup. I never seen any two toned lipstick before. All the shades are soo beautiful,want to collect them all. Are they a limited edition Ms.Alyssa?
Hi Hanna! This is also my first time to encounter a two toned lipstick. I’m not sure if I already saw a similar one before, but if I did then it’s probably a Korean brand too. 😀 They’re not listed as Limited Edition, but the shades are selling out fast. So you better check them out soon and buy whichever you want. I also want to get all shades, lol!
I love this 2 tone lip was wondering how to get it
