This is a totally unique color that I love. As others have mentioned, it is not quite pink, not quite beige. For you paler ladies, it definitely doesn't give your lips that washed out color that some brownish beiges do. I also love the formulation of this particular Dior line. I usually cannot wear lipstick b/c it is too drying. Not so with the Dior Addict High Shine. It feels very balmy and wears off gradually and in a very flattering way--e.g., no ring of pigmentation around the edge of my lips. Highly recommended!

i'm really disappointed to give this product only 2 stars, but the color was nothing like the one on the website...
i was looking for a very pale pink and in the picture on the sephora website, it looked like the color. when i tried it on, it barely showed on my lips. i did like the texture though.

No Beige about it! I have no idea why they named it as they did. If there is any beige in there it is just a hint. Mostly its a soft pinky rose with an irridescent look (no big glitter or sparkle, just a subtle shimmer). Maybe there is a hint of beige which keeps it on the neutral side. Pretty wear everywhere lippie....work, going out, weekend. Love the formula so much I find myself rubbing my lips together just to feel the softness. Got it at Sephora. Tube is glamorous but a bit hard to store because of the color indicated at the one end so you have to store it upside down...does that make sense. One of the few formulas/colors I would ever repurchase. ME- NW20ish, blond hair, blue eyes, pigmented lips.

The color is so beautiful and the name so misleading. "Beige", what beige? It's a sheer, soft neutral pink with shimmer. OKay, it's a pink/beige. More pink than beige. The name should be "Pink-Beige-a-Porter"! Ladies, this is a very sophisticated shimmer, no clunky glitter here. It's subtle enough that I'm comfortable wearing it to the office and sexy enough to wear it for martinis after work. It one of those 'goes with everything' color. I just "found" (*smacks head*) Dior lippies and I went crazy at the counter and bought 5 of them. The texture of these high shine lipsticks is genious. I find that the tube is so much easier than a sticky gloss applied with a wand. Dior did a great job designing the case - it's about as sexy as a lipstick case can be. Love it. Will keep buying it.

This isn't really beige at all, but a sheer, rosey nude MLBB with pink iridescence (no glitter or sparkles in this) that gives it a soft shine. The texture is sooo smooth. Very moisturizing. This is the PERFECT, everyday, goes-with-everything lipcolor I have been searching for all my life. Really gorgeous! And worth every penny :-)

I second that this is a really great nude for those of us who look dead in many of the other options out there. I love the weightless feel of this lippie and will definitely buy more of this brand despite its high cost. It is the one I go to for my 'on the way out the door and need a quick dash of something.' It is very sheer so don't expect a lot of color impact. But I am fair and this has just the right amount of pink in it to brighten my face without exclaiming that I have lipstick on.

6/13/11 Still love this and wear it all the time. My favorite lipstick.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this color on me.... :) I've always been looking for that "beige" color that is perfect on my lip (since I have natural red lips) and it's hard for beige to look good on me. Well, I think I found it :)

This is my new HG nude color! I have a very hard time finding nudes to suit my coloring. They either look too orange or too gray. But this one is just right. It's on the pink side of beige, with tiny sparkle flecks that are not too big but not unnoticeable. The formula is so smooth, and the coverage is just right - not too sheer and not too opaque. The staying power is excellent. There's no fading, no feathering, no line around my lips, no smell or taste. My only complaint would be the packaging. In its case the lipstick color is only visible on the underside, which means I can't store it right side up so that I can easily see the color. This isn't a problem right now since this is the only color I own, but after this one I'll buy more.
