MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Lip Waterproof Lipliner Pencil in 23C Apricot Pink, 24C Vintage Coral, & 18C Coral. 

Ingredients:

Cyclopentasiloxane, Paraffin, Polybutene, C11-12 Isoparaffin, Hydrogenated Cottonseed Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis Oil (Simmondisia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil), Ceresin, Ozakerie, Cera Microcristallina (Microcrystalline Wax), Tocopherol, Ascorbyl Palmitate.

Product:
The MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Lip Waterproof Lipliner Pencil is a gel formula with a matte finish. These are very smooth to apply normally but drier than the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil formula.

Now the thing is I use to own and worked through 8C Red and 9C Burgundy pencils in the past and I never had this skipping of product problem like with these 3 shades. I think it has more to do with the natural of the pale peach shades that is causing the product to bunch up on the inside of the lips.

Colour: 

23C Apricot Pink is a pale peach with a matte finish.
24C Vintage Coral is a light warm coral with a matte finish.
18C Coral is a hot coral-pink with a matte finish.

Wear: wears for about 16+ hours before needing a touch-up so long as you don't eat anything oily.

Packaging: Simple wood pencil.

Daylight & Flash swatches: 18C Coral, 24C Vintage Coral, & 23C Apricot Pink. Applied in one stroke and heavy.

Verdict

I still love the formula in general and as a lip liner these peach shade to last on the lips, it's just the shade it goes patchy for no reason on the more texture  centre of the lips.
