Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Liner Pencil — Malt Neutral Matte, Creamy Long-Wear Precision

Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Liner in Malt is a creamy, wax-based matte pencil designed to shape, define, and lock lip color in place with precise, long-wearing coverage.

This professional-grade lip pencil delivers rich pigment and a velvety, matte finish that makes lip looks cleaner and longer-lasting. The traditional wooden barrel sharpens to a fine point for crisp outlines, while the specialized wax blend helps the formula glide on smoothly without tugging. Malt is a warm, versatile neutral that pairs well with many Anastasia Beverly Hills matte lipsticks and glosses, providing a feather-proof base or a standalone defined lip.

How does this lip liner improve lipstick wear?

The Malt lip liner creates a secure barrier at the lip edge that prevents feathering and helps color last longer. It acts as a primer and anchor for lipstick or gloss, intensifying color payoff and maintaining a neat silhouette throughout wear.

• Full-pigment color gives immediate opacity beneath lipstick.
• The waxy, creamy texture minimizes slipping and improves adhesion.
• Sharpenable wooden design enables ultra-fine edges for tight lining.
• Works with both matte and glossy finishes to boost longevity.

Can I use this pencil alone for a finished look?

Yes — the rich, velvet-matte formula is designed to be comfortable on its own and offers a polished, defined lip when worn solo. Malt’s neutral tone fills and shapes lips, creating a natural yet sculpted appearance without additional product.

• Buildable pigment allows full coverage with a single pencil.
• Smudge-resistant finish keeps the look crisp all day.
• Creamy application prevents dryness despite the matte result.
• Ideal for pocket touch-ups or minimalist makeup routines.

What makes this lip liner precise and easy to use?

The classic wooden pencil format lets you sharpen to an exact point for detailed work, from tight lining to defining Cupid’s bow. The formula’s creamy-wax base slides on smoothly, reducing pulling and allowing controlled, steady strokes whether you’re mapping the lip edge or filling in the shape.

• Sharpenable tip provides professional-grade precision.
• Velvet texture glides without skipping or tugging.
• Consistent pigment prevents patchy application.
• Durable, smudge-proof wear reduces need for frequent touch-ups.

Which lip products does Malt coordinate with best?

Malt is formulated to pair seamlessly with Anastasia Beverly Hills Matte Lipsticks and High-Shine Glosses, offering complementary undertones that enhance both muted and bolder shades. Use it to line, contour, or base your favorite ABH lip colors for a unified, professional finish.

• Matches warm, neutral mattes for a natural edge.
• Creates a smooth canvas for glossy topcoats.
• Works well with deeper shades to blend and blur edges.
• Coordinates with multi-product looks from ABH collections.

Who is this for? Makeup artists, beauty enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a reliable, high-pigment lip liner will appreciate Malt’s balance of creamy application and matte longevity. It’s especially useful for people who want clean, defined lips that resist feathering and hold up under all-day wear, whether used as a subtle natural liner or the backbone of a bold lip look.
