Description
Chocolate brown lip liner with jojoba and shea butter
The chocolate brown lip liner has established itself as one of the most distinctive and versatile base products for women who choose pronounced editorial nudes and warm, earthy lip looks — the shade that combines the sophisticated depth of brown with just enough warmth to never look harsh. This classic chocolate brown works particularly beautifully as a contour for caramel, caramel, cocoa, and pink brown lipsticks, and as an iconic lip liner for the ’90s brown liner-over-nude lipstick’ aesthetic. The Jane Iredale Lip Pencil Cocoa translates that earthy refinement into a nourishing, mineral-based formula.
Cocoa is a chocolate brown with a saturated deep cocoa undertone that defines the lips and forms the base for caramel, caramel, and warm earthy lipstick and gloss looks. The soft, no-tug formula glides smoothly over the delicate lip skin without pulling, and is based on mineral pigments with nourishing jojoba oil, shea butter, meadowfoam, and macadamia oil. The Jane Iredale lip liner Cocoa works both as a classic lip liner for sophisticated definition and as a full base layer to significantly extend the color intensity and wear of warm earthy lipsticks.
Color: a deep chocolate brown with a saturated cocoa undertone that gives the lips a sophisticated, earthy, and ’90s editorial definition.

Active ingredients
Hydrogenated Jojoba Oil: Hydrogenated jojoba oil gives the Jane Iredale lip liner Cocoa its characteristic soft glide and prevents the pencil from pulling on the thin lip barrier. This oil is compositionally similar to the skin’s own sebum, allowing it to be exceptionally well absorbed by the lip skin during wear.
Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter): Shea butter nourishes and protects the lips intensively thanks to a rich composition of fatty acids and vitamins. This butter makes the Jane Iredale lip pencil Cocoa exceptionally comfortable for long wear — unlike traditional lip liners that often dry out.
Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil: Meadowfoam oil forms a light film on the lips that retains moisture and allows the color to adhere evenly. For a deep chocolate brown shade like Cocoa, this is important — it prevents pigmentation from settling unevenly on dry spots.
Macadamia Integrifolia Seed Oil: Macadamia oil soothes the lip barrier and has a mild anti-inflammatory effect. Combined with shea butter, this oil provides the characteristic smooth texture of the Jane Iredale lip liner Cocoa.
Tocopherol (Vitamin E) & Ascorbyl Palmitate (Vitamin C): These two antioxidants protect the lip barrier against free radicals from UV and air pollution during wear. They form a nourishing shield on top of the pencil’s decorative function.
How to use it
- Ensure hydrated lips as a base — optionally prepared with a lip balm
- Sharpen the pencil with a Jane Iredale sharpener — other sharpeners can cause the wooden casing to splinter
- Trace the lip contour with the Jane Iredale Lip Pencil Cocoa, from the corners of the mouth to the cupid’s bow
- If desired, fill in the entire lips as a base layer for extra color intensity and longevity — or leave the pencil as a contour around a lighter nude for the classic '90s ombré lip look
- Finish with a caramel, toffee, cocoa, or pink brown lipstick from the ColorLuxe Cream Lipstick line, or a gloss from the HydroPure or ColorLuxe lines
Suitable for
- Wearers of caramel, toffee, and earthy lipsticks seeking editorial definition
- Women with medium to dark skin tones with warm or neutral undertones
- Mature lips that benefit from a base layer to prevent bleeding and feathering
- Autumn and winter looks with saturated, earthy accents
- Wearers of the Jane Iredale ColorLuxe Cream Lipstick in Copper Dune, Toffee, Rosebud, or Bordeaux
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the Jane Iredale lip pencil Cocoa as a solo lip color?
Absolutely. The soothing oils and butters in the formula make Cocoa exceptionally comfortable to wear as a full lip base. For a matte chocolate brown editorial look, you can apply the pencil solo — for extra shine, finish with a sheer gloss like HydroPure Mocha Latte or Sangria.
Which lipsticks does Cocoa work best with as a base layer?
The Jane Iredale lip liner Cocoa works excellently under all caramel, toffee, and earthy lipsticks — especially the ColorLuxe Cream Lipstick in Copper Dune, Toffee, and Rosebud, which look extra beautiful on this deep base. It also adds extra color depth under HydroPure Mocha Latte or Sangria.
Why do you specifically recommend a Jane Iredale sharpener?
The wooden casings of the Jane Iredale lip liner Cocoa and other pencils are soft to prevent splintering during use. Standard sharpeners are often too harsh and can cause the wood to splinter or crush the soft formula. The Jane Iredale sharpener is specially designed to maintain an even, rounded point.
Does the pencil pull on my lips during application?
No. The formula is deliberately developed with soothing jojoba oil, shea butter, and meadowfoam to prevent the Jane Iredale lip liner Cocoa from pulling on the delicate lip barrier. The smooth glide is one of the distinctive features of this mineral-based pencil line.
