Drying Lipstick
-05.02.13
Quick Take: drying
First time trying Different Lipstick by Clinique and unfortunately it dries up my lips instead of moisturizing. I love the color Ice Bloom but I tried wearing it a couple of times now and it is very drying. Will not purchase again.

Sheer, pretty
-04.22.13
Quick Take: moisturizing
This lipstick is very sheer (a bit more so than I normally like), but I get compliments on it all the time! Doesn't dry out lips either, which is always a plus! If you're going for long wear I'd try a different kind (the matte version is nice).

Very moisturizing!
-04.21.13
Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing
As the title goes, this is a very moisturizing. The color is decent, but a pit opaque for my taste; yet if you like a very moisturizing lip color with a decent amount of color coming through, this is the stuff for you! :)

Perfect neutral color.
-04.03.13
I'm not much of a lipstick wearer--I usually go with lipgloss, but this is my go to lipstick now. Tenderheart is the perfect neutral color, if you have a medium/darker skin tone. The texture is creamy and moisturizing, but not greasy, and it lasts a long time. This is a matte color, not glittery. I like to use it alone or as a base with a dab of gold, shimmery gloss over it for a little extra depth.

Moisturizing hint of color
-02.05.13
Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing
I bought both Tenderheart and A Different Grape.
For the Grape, it's a noticeable color on me, and a good look for evening or a slightly more dramatic look. Granted, for years I wore nothing but chapstick, so for me any color is dramatic. Still, it's a noticeable and yet not ostentatious shade. Very office-appropriate. I just keep it for evenings because I generally play up the eyes with a more subdued lip.
Tenderheart is what I wear on a daily basis, and as many others have said, it's like my own lips, but better.I generally go for a more natural look, and this absolutely fits the bill. Feels smooth and not at all sticky, which is something I can't stand on my lips. Wish the color lasted a little longer, but that's my only complaint. Will absolutely repurchase once my current ones run low.

Tenderheart
-01.28.13
Quick Take: not long wearing, pretty
I love the packaging. The feel of the tube in your hand is very nice. It has a good weight to it and it looks very classy.
I like the Different Lipstick better than the High Impact Lip Color which is too dry.
Tenderheart is a nice brownish nude.
It goes on smooth, is very sheer, and is glossy.
My only dislike is the length of wear.
I think it would be the perfect lipstick for a teenager just getting into makeup.

Smooth and creamy, but fast wear
-01.07.13
Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing, nude, well packaged
I've never actually bought one of these because I was looking for a lipstick, but I have to say, I'm glad I didn't! This lipstick is a nice creamy texture that barely transfers and moisturizes like no tomorrow, but I find it wears too fast. I've also had it melt under circumstances that nothing else in my makeup bag had, but at least it didn't gush all over the place. I'm also not a huge fan of the colors, since they're all neutral and not really high-impact.

Colors would not show! :(
-12.28.12
Quick Take: not long lasting, color does not apply
This lipstick seemed pretty resonable and worth a try, but the colors hardly showed up on my lips! I have tried two colors, and no matter how hard I tried appling, or even rubbing it in, it hardly showed! I will stick with YSL for lipstick!!

EXCELLENT. just excellent.
-12.17.12
Quick Take: creamy, great color
i received raspberry glace and tenderheart in a clinique gift. they also came with a sample of the long last glosswear in fireberry and sunset. i usually steer clear from pinks and nudes, but then i tried tenderheart LAYERED with sunset. now it's the only thing i wear! sunset's a lovely copper color that really stands out and makes my lips look fabulous. raspberry glace is not at all a hot pink or barbie pink. it's a perfect, well, raspberry color. would not trade it for any other pink.

This is sooo pretty!
-12.05.12
Quick Take: amazing, worth, long lasting
I have mine in Raspberry Glace and it is soooo gorgeous! It's not matte (well, you can make it matte just search how to on Youtube haha) and it has little sparkles in it (which you can't feel when you rub your lips together). It is the perfect pink for light to medium skin color. Or any color you are! Haha It doesn't last ALL day but it's about 3-5 hours depends if you eat it or drink or eat lol.

Just gorgeous. I have been looking to replace Clinique's Rock Violet, which I guess they nixed. This is more subtle, more daytime, but it is in the same color family and flatters my fair with blue undertones skin.
