I am rating this product based on its versatility and frequency of use compared to its price point, which isn't that expensive. I am a yellow-olive NC30-C3 and this color isn't warm but rather,...

This is the type of color I don't usually wear and normally wouldn't select, but I had been meaning to get a spice/cinnamon stick type color of lipstick for doing a different type of look. I saw...

The color is gorgeous! Kind of a toffee/coffee color. It is a cream. But a rather drying cream. A very flattering shade for many skin tones I have no doubt. I've heard people gripe about the...

The name is misleading. When I think of coffee colors, I think of browns not browned reds or pinks. This is brownish but it is reddish plum as well. It took me a while to get used to this color...

I, too, was a sucker for the Real Beauty lipstick challenge. I've never tried "brown" lipstick before and after too many times of pestering Bobbi Brown SAs (their colors were too matte and some too...

Stunning shade, a berry browny colour. Formula is moisturizing, sweet scent. Good to pick up when on sale.

This will be my go-to lipstick starting now! I have had this lipstick for at least a year, maybe two, just sitting in my makeup pile. I've tried it on several occasions--sometimes it looked too...

Its a nice shade, BUT I hate the formula of these lipsticks. They feel thick and lipsticky, they dry my lips out almost as much as Mac satin lipsticks, and they fade ugly, accentuating every...

I agree that this shows up differently on everyone. It is more of a claret-y color on me. Definitely cooler. I need a warmer brown! Otherwise, the formula is divine. I wish that you could...

I love this color. I had put it away for a little while and recently started using it again. I apply, put a little dusting of powder over it and reapply again. Stays on all morning and just a touch...

This is a red and brown lipstick that doesn't "scream" either color. And I just love it when I'm not spending $30 on a tube of lipstick.

I concur with the previous reviewer--the reason this is a "universally flattering" brown is that it doesn't have any yellow tones (so even very cool-toned women can pull it off). It is more of a...

I confess that I bought this based on the previous review which cited the Real Beauty top universal shades, although when I looked at that website, I almost didn't. Even on the Asian & brunette...

For those of us who like to look expensive but refuse to put in the money or effort to look this way, this is one of the products that may help you. For one, neither the colour nor the packaging...

What's not to like? Great deeper nude, almost brown shade. This was my first cs lippie. I always check first to see if one's not rancid cause a lot of the early ones released last summer were...
