Louis Vuitton’s debut into the beauty world is officially here, and it’s making waves. The brand collaborated with celebrity makeup artist Pat McGrath to create La Beauté Louis Vuitton, a collection that positions luxury makeup as wearable art. The star of the show is the LV Crayon Lip Pencil at $58, which might sound outrageous until you realize everything else in the collection costs between $160 and $455. The crayon itself is gorgeous: shaped like LV’s signature monogram flower, available in ten shades, and designed to do double duty as both a lipstick and liner.
The real proof is in the product performance. Page Six Style editors tested two shades, Burnt Sienna and Nude Quest, and had glowing reviews. The crayon has a buttery texture that glides on smoothly without skipping or dragging, and it blends beautifully whether you want a sharp, defined lip line or a soft, blurred effect. A-listers like Emma Stone and Hoyeon already wore it at the Louis Vuitton Cruise show, which speaks to how well it performs in real life and on camera.
So is it worth your money? That depends on how you value luxury beauty and whether you’re willing to invest in a premium product that actually delivers. If you’re someone who’s been frustrated with cheaper lip liners that don’t perform, this might finally be the crayon that changes your life. But if you’re happy with your drugstore finds, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that either. What matters most is what makes you feel confident. Have you tried any Louis Vuitton beauty products yet, or is this your first intro to the brand’s cosmetics line?
