One of my favorite lip product finds this year are Milani Lip Flash Lip Pencils.  Opaque, glittery, budgeproof.  What is not to love?  I finally snagged a mate for my Photo Flash Pencil..enter News Flash!  News Flash is a deep vampy reddish purple with violet shimmer throughout.  This is not a subtle shade by a long shot.  It is not quite as sticky or drying as Photo Flash was, but they share the same depth of character and glittery glossy finish.

I found this shade trickier to apply then Photo Flash.  It has a tendency to break up along the lip line.  To diminish this, I apply the pencil to the center of my lips and then use a lip brush to pull the color out to the lip line.  It doesn't eliminate the problem, but it does help. 

Final Thoughts

If you aren't afraid of a deep rich lip color you will easily love this shade.  It has a fun way of shifting between purple and red depending on the light and when the light hits the glitter..daaamn.  Extra tip, this shade seems magnetically attracted to teeth, so give your finger a pop through the lips to gather the extra color.
