I bought this in the colour Canvas and it is the perfect colour! I'm quite pale and struggle to find a nice nude or neutral shade of lipstick. A lot of the time those shades can make me look...

Very unique, metallic red. Not glittery or sparkle-filled, but glowingly metallic. Build-able consistency goes from sheer to opaque. Nice for the holidays, but I use it year-round. It's the only...

I got the one called Lush. It is very pigmented but it's not as "sheen" as i would have expected it. it's actually a sticky type of lip gloss, not that oily feeling type.

This was a gift in PRIMAL. This looks just like the colour of a candy apple in the tube, but much more subtle and sheer on the lips. The texture IS amazing; no stickiness, tackiness, yet it stays...

I have this in Ignite, which is kind of a gloss version of MAC's viva glam VI SE. I like the color, since it's natural looking but also a little shimmery and pretty, but I can't stand the smell of...
