One of the best
-04.02.13
I've been purchasing Clinique lipsticks for over 20 years and they remain true. When I want a more softer, neutral color with lots of moisture, I can count on Clinique. I am a lip stick gurl and will try any to see how they wear and I find myself coming back to them over and over.

Extreme Pink
-03.28.13
Quick Take: creamy
I generally don't like pink and never wear/buy anything pink and this is one of the only lipsticks I have ever bought (I almost never wear lipstick).
Not sure why but I love it and find myself wearing it a lot. Its not too pink and applied light and topped with gloss its perfect. I have dark brown hair and dark green eyes and light skin and this colour works well.
Doesn't stay long with the gloss on top but without it does stay on a long time (although I don't have much to compare it to).

Great color for all outfits

Quick Take: great for all outfits
This color goes with any outfit - it is neutral enough but with a touch of brown/orange that makes it perfect.

Red-y to Wear for sure
-02.19.13
Quick Take: long wearing
Lipsticks tend to dry out my lips (without gloss) but this one did not. I wouldn't say it's "moisturizing" as the company claims it to be but I would say it isn't drying or uncomfortable. It doesn't clump or bleed, and it stays on until you want to take it off. I ate a bowl of cereal while wearing it and it almost fully stayed on besides a few barely noticeable red marks on my spoon. It didn't get on my teeth during application or when I was eating or talking.
I would probably repurchase this product again, it's now one of my favorite lipsticks.

Nude Beach
-01.26.13
Quick Take: dry, ugly
I returned this after one day.
I've been looking for the perfect 90's brown for a while. I thought this might work.
It ended up being a bit dry, ugly, too matte, and not long lasting.
I did like the price and the packaging. The neat little tube fits easily anywhere and looks and feels very nice.
It also glided on well and felt nice on my lips despite being a bit too dry.
Two stars because I've had much worse.

Rose by any other name
-01.20.13
Quick Take: shiny soothing & pretty
Citrus Rose is a beautiful blend of red/soft coral.... Great for blonds with blue yes.... It just isn't a long lasting formula so be prepared to reapply often

great nude color
-01.13.13
Love this lipstick, it's creamy, long lasting and doesn't bleed. At work, I prefer natural shades & what's great about this one is that it isn't too pale. It's a lovely shade of a mixed pink & brown. Some nudes are so pale & wind up making you look sick, not this one. It's a great every day color.

it's a pinky red , nice color but it did not blend with my skin tone (illamasqua 5.5 skin base more yellow than pink skin tone) unfortunately I had to return it. Great lipstick though too bad.

Definitely RED
-12.27.12
Quick Take: bright, smooth
This was definitely color I wanted for the holiday season and it is AWESOME. But, it rubs off on EVERYTHING. and because it's really bright red, you can see when it rubs off. Not so attractive to be eating and drinking and rubbing lipstick everywhere. I would definitely only wear this for a night out where I knew I would only need to use my mouth for talking and maybe some drinks.

This lipstick is perfect for me. I don't like too much and go for a more natural look. This color is soft and pretty and perfect against my dark skin.

Great Lipstick!
-11.28.12
I love the high impact lipsticks by Clinique. To me, they are very similar MAC's matte lipsticks and are cheaper. I usually wear Go Fig, but I bought Nude Beach for a lighter look. However, this is as dark as Go Fig, but it is more brown than red. I love it, and I think it is a good option for a darker brown lip. I have light-medium skin, dark brown hair and brown eyes.

Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing, long wearing
Lipsticks are a hit or miss, I have a very hard time matching my lip stick color with my skin tone and blushes. Luckily, rosette was good for me. Lets hope I found my lipstick!
