This is a very pretty coral-pink lip stain with a nice amount of shimmer. It goes on like a lipstick but has great staying power. Perfect shade for tanned skin as well. I hear Alexis Vogel has used this on Pamela Anderson, Carmen Electra and Shakira - I can see why. Unfortunately, I was advised by Alexis Vogel's Customer Service Dept. the other day that this shade has been discontinued. It's too bad because it is a great shade, especially since Summer is just around the corner. I have already sent e-mails to Alexis and her Customer Service Dept. asking if they can bring it back or if they will have a substitute shade. Quite a few other ladies have contacted her as well with the same message. If you feel the same way, you can contact her at her website, www.alexisvogel.com

The coral cast to this pink lipstain works well with my natural blue-red lips to come out as a nice, true pink (Smooch turns too fushia on me). Just got it and have only worn it a couple of times so far, but the color seems to last and last with one application and doesn't dry out my lips. Will definitely buy again.

Wow! Really lights up my face. I use Smooch from the Light Kit and this is a tad more coral/pink (less cotton-candy pink than Smooch), and it looks terrific on my fair skin. It would probably look fantastic on tan skin.
Staying power is great if you apply and then press lips together (forget the powder b/c it might change the color). I use it with Adobe lip liner from AV and it looks awesome! Definitely will repurchase.
