I have purchased this over and over. It's moisturizing and light enough in pigment that i can apply without a mirror. It is not stable in the tube but I find if I only move it so just enough shows then it lasts right to the very bottom. The only lip product I have found that keeps my lips happy. I have also used it in other tints.

I like the formula - not too waxy or oily, no shimmer. Good staying power and very moisturizing. I always have to have lip balm or gloss on my lips because they become chapped easily. The color didn't show up on my lips though. The packaging isn't anything special, especially at US$23. I wouldn't buy Fawn Nestle again because it didn't enhance my natural lip color.

I bought this on clearance at Sephora. Beautiful natural color. YLBB! I wish I had bought this sooner but luckily I got it at a steal price!! Anyway, this lipstick is very moisturizing, and isn't too pigmented. It gives you a natural lip look. I'm personally a little scared of lipstick so I'm working my way into using it more often since I'm getting sick of that childish gloss lip look that I've had for over 10 years and I'm sick of being asked what grade in HS I am in! Would rebuy if I can find it later!

Nice tint, but won't repurchase because it melts in warmer weather (my stick broke), and isn't moisturizing enough in the winter. Looks smooth on lips, but color is very sheer and I'm better off with plain balm.

This new product is AMAZING! The texture is smooth and soft and it leaves my lips nicely hydrated. I am addicted to putting this stuff on. The shade fawn Nestle is a lovely medium pink shade (which is good because since it's so sheer, if it were a lighter shade it wouldn't even show up). It's the perfect natural pink shade for all day wear. Keep in mind that is it essentially a tinted lip balm, so you will not get loads of color deposit here.

I highly recommend giving this product a shot. This is my first experience with any Vincent Longon lip products, and I would definitley re-purchase this one in the future. is it possible I have finally found my HG lip colour....? Gasp....

My first venture in the Vincent Longo line but this certainly won't be my last. Fawn Nestle is a gorgeous nude pink with the slightest hint of brown. It's a YLBB shade in a sheer moisturizing stick. I usually pair this with Fioresh Lipgloss on top for a nice glossy look. GGG, NC40/C40, Brown Hair, Brown eyes. It's a bit pricey compared to what I am used to paying, but it's such a gorgeous shade with no shimmer, I couldn't pass it up. I can't pull off most pinks because my lips are so pigmented, but I didn't have this problem with Fawn Nestle. Highly recommended for all skintones!

I have fallen in love with these lipsticks, I think they're one of the nicest sheer balmy lipsticks on the market. Fawn Nestle is my favorite shade, it's a glowy nude rose that's slightly on the pale side of medium as far as depth of color. I have pretty rosy lips, and I found that the majority of the shades in this line blended really nicely with my natural lip color to give that natural, effortlessly polished, healthy lip look. They also feel fantastic, I irritated my lips pretty badly by trying on and whiping off lip products for about an hour but these feel super soothing. Lasting power is above average for the sheer lipsticks I've tried, the consistency is pretty slippy and thin but both the balmy feeling and color lasted through a full meal with just a little fading- my lips still looked fanstastic afterwards. The price seems high, but you're getting a really reasonable ammount of product compared with Bobbi Brown Lip Shine for example. No smell or taste once they're on my lips, either. If you love balmy lipstick or the ylbb look, I highly recommend giving these a try.
