Sweenly Lip Pen vs. Peppr Beauty Sculpt+Stain Lip Marker

The lip marker is the lip category's version of the nail pen: a felt tip that draws the outline and fills the lip, with a stain that stays put. Peppr Beauty's Sculpt+Stain and the Sweenly Lip Pen are the two products people compare. Here is a fair look at both.

A note on fairness: Sweenly makes the Sweenly Nail Pen and Lip Pen, so read this as a comparison written by one of the two brands. Everything about the other product comes from its own website as of September 19, 2026; we have not tested it ourselves and we make no claims about its quality. Brand names belong to their respective owners, and Sweenly is not affiliated with them.

Where they differ

1. Shade range

Six shades on one side, twelve on the other. Sweenly's range runs from pink and brown nudes (Bubble, Plush, Deep) to reds (Sassy, Juicy, Spicy) and deep berries and browns (Cherry, Mocha, Heady). If you have a precise undertone in mind, more shades means a closer match.

2. Price and the bundle math

Per marker, Peppr is cheaper: $21 against $26.99. Per marker in a bundle, it flips: with Sweenly's buy-2-get-1, three Lip Pens cost $53.98, or $18 each; buy 3 and get 2 free plus a Gloss brings five pens to $80.97, about $16 each. If you only want one, compare the single prices; if you want two or three shades, compare the bundles.

3. Finish and feel

Both brands describe a comfortable, lightweight stain. Sweenly's formula is enriched with hyaluronic acid, sets in about 30 seconds, and fades evenly from the whole lip rather than leaving the outline behind. Worn with the Sweenly Gloss on top, it becomes a glassy, non-sticky finish.

4. Removal

A stain is a stain: both come off with an oil-based or bi-phase makeup remover rather than a wipe of water. Sweenly's also comes off with micellar water on a cotton pad.

Which one is right for you?

• One marker, lowest single price: Peppr Beauty.
• Two or three shades, lowest price per pen: Sweenly's Lip Pen Bundle.
• A wider shade range and a gloss designed to go over it: Sweenly.

Either way, the technique is the same: outline first, fill from the edge to the center, keep the lips parted for thirty seconds. Our lip stain tutorial covers it.
