What the gurus are saying

This liner wins praise for its smudged, effortless finish that blends seamlessly with the lip when applied to the outer edge for soft definition rather than a sharp line. The brownie pink tone reads as a versatile everyday shade that feels like an extension of neutral lip color. One thing to keep in mind: it's not a long-wear formula for people who touch their lips frequently, so it works best for those content with gentle definition that may shift through the day.

"This is Wherever Walnut Light from Makeup Forever. It is such a beautiful kind of like lavender pink. I'm wearing it in like the center of the lips today. I typically do like to ground the edges of my lips when I'm using this. But it's such a lovely color. Apparently, you can use this on like your cheeks, too, but I haven't actually tried that yet. I wanted to make sure to mention it, though, because it's one of the newer things that I've tried that has continued to be in rotation."

"I'm going to use Wherever Walnut from Make Up For Ever. I think she might have used any caffeine this one's just a little more pink which I think you know with the blush color is just going to work better so I'm keeping the Cupid's bow shape but letting the pencil go a lot further over than what I normally do. And then when you go in with lip liner it just kind of creates a more of a shadow so your lips look more full. She took powder after a lip liner and set the lip liner never have I ever but now I do so then the lip liner doesn't budge how brilliant is that it's so smart."

"I'm just going to grab my Make Up For Ever Wherever Walnut Lip Liner and do the most messy, smudged-out lip liner ever. I don't know if I say this often, but this is literally my go-to everyday kind of lip liner. If you're someone who struggles, this will not stay on, I'm someone who, when I'm wearing makeup, I just know not to touch my face, I just don't touch my [...] lips, so I don't have to work hard at it. [...] Just a little definition, a little something. Kind of looks like an extension of the blurred-out color on the rest of my face."
Yay
"The combo I use the absolute most on my lips is the Make Up For Ever Wherever Walnut Lip Liner. I misplace them -- I've got like three or four because they're so good. [...] This is kind of like my go-to brownie pink. Brownie pink tone is what I've been loving. I just go kind of right on the outer edge of my natural lip shade. Already pretty. I like it."
Yay
"I'm going in with my Make Up For Ever Lip Liner Pencil in shade Wherever Walnut. This is probably my most used pencil, it's what I use in 95 percent of my YouTube videos. This is a very long wearing lip pencil which is one of the reasons I really like it and totally think it's worth like the slightly more investment than a drugstore lip liner."
