I thought this wouldn't show up on my pigmented lips, but it turns them the most beautiful springy-pink-with-a-hint-of-peach color. And that wonderful Aqualumiere formula can't be beat for keeping lips hydrated. This goes perfectly with Stla's Push-Up in Cream. Grail.

This is a lovely light, shimmered pink that is very ladies-who-lunch to me. Looks great worn with the new Lumieres Facettes gold rush quad on eyes, and topped with a little Rose Sand Glossimer. great spring/summer color. Very versatile, basic pink for your lipstick wardrobe.

Love this lipstick and this colour!!! Very good together with my fair complexion. It is light, but gives enough moisture to my lips. Love SPF 15. I will repurchase!

Waikiki on me is a shimmery cool-toned light pink. Leaves a gorgeous glossy finish to the lips, despite being a lipstick (damn i love these aqualumiere's!!). It is sheer, but still manages to stand out against my NC30 yellow/olive skin as a feminine "cute" color, doesn't exactly strike me as the most sophisticated color for me, but still flattering enough :) love it, and perfect for most occassions, and all seasons! :)

I adore this lipstick, it reminds me of my HG Plink! (MAC) although this one is a bit more beige. Waïkiki is a gorgeous peachy pink, not too boring, not too bright, perfect for when you don't really wanna wear makeup but still wanna wear something LOL I use it with Dervish lip liner (MAC) and I get a perfect MLBB shade. Expensive, but is Chanel quality.

Wellllllll...I like it fine. I don't LOVE it, though. The formula is great, and the color is a pretty ultra-feminine shimmery pink. I don't see a hint of peach in it at all, and I wish I did. For me, it is more lipstick than sheer color, but pinker than I am used it. Pink Pink Pink Pink! Kind of looks like a Ladies Who Lunch type pink--you know, a color some society matron would wear while sporting pearls and a sweater set and attending her daughter's dance recital. Having said that, I'm still gonna wear it every now and then, when I'm having a "pink" day and am feeling rather frail and helpless.

I have never had a HG lipstick but this is it. I'm not much of a lipstick wearer but was tired of using lipgloss all the time & decided to go for a change. I am in love with this colour (which i was told is used in the majority of the ads). I use Shell for reference & this lipstick gives a flushed look to my lips with a bit of shimmmer. Next up is Key Largo which I actually purchased from ebay. Waikiki I purchased at the dept. store for $30 cdn. Would purchase again b/c all the time & money I spend on trying to find something similiar is not worth it.

I am among the underwhelmed. But that may be because it is difficult for me to find colors that will successfully overcome my pigmented, rosy lips. That said, I am a cool-neutral PPP so most lip colors leave some impression on my face, even if the change is highly subtle on my lips. But in the case of Waikiki, it is just not worth the bother. What I get is a really muted pink with a hint of peach. Very boring on me. For the natural look, I have countless other options, all of which look better to my eye. Still, the formula is great, so it is definitely worth a try.

I bought this lipstick at least a year ago. I prefer gloss but I had needed something that I can bring with me when I go on short beach getaways & this lipstick was THE one. Great formula and SPF protection. It is a natural pink on my lips. It's great because you don't want to look too made-up on the beach! :) I took the lipstick out as I was preparing to write this review and realised that I've used it halfway already! Would probably repurchase.

Waikiki looks like a very natural pink on my pale lips. The Aqualumiere formula is very comfortable to wear, and the staying power is quite good. I would repurchase this colour. Me: N1/NC15, blue eyes, blonde hair.

I like this a lot. I'm a warm PPP and my lips are quite pigmented. On me this is a medium pink with a slight metallic sheen. Very nice and fresh

I bought this mainly as a day lipstick because of the SPF. It actually works great over my Prada Tint 2 lipbalm, tones down a bit. It is glittery, and pink. A very summery shade. I like it because it's moisturizing - I can just put it on without lipbalm underneath and not worry about dry lips. It also doesn't have a weird odor or taste, like Bobbi Brown lipsticks, for example. Not sure if it'll be worth buying again. I think if Armani ever puts an SPF in any of his lipsticks, I will never look back.

I'm with Liv24 for this one. This so called peach pink doesn't show up on my lips. Just boring hint of glittery pink. Also, all Aqualumieres are super frosty and glittery on me... Why? The formular is very nice, but I prefer Armani Sheer to Aqualumiere.

My HG Lipstick!!! I can't imagine how my lips were before I met Wakiki. I wear this colour to work a lot. I wait tables and it is such a warm, cheerful lipstick, while it's still pretty subtle. My lips seem to glow when I wear it. I've also noticed that men like it. Probably because it just makes your lips so juicy and succulent.

Satiny, smooth, and soft. Slightly frosted, dusty rose hue. Perfect to complement a polished and conservative look to work or a flowery summer chiffon dress out. Brightens complexion as sweet as a blushing bride. Overall perfection.

I LOVE the way this lipstick feels on my lips. I am a bona-fide lipgloss girl, so I love the sheer and lightweight feel of this lipstick. The color is quite sheer on my somewhat pigmented lips, but I am happy with it nonetheless.

The formula of this lipstick is amazing. This is the ONLY lipstick that I own/wear. Waikiki is a neutral pink with a VERY fine shimmer to it. Perfect for girly pink lips that are not Barbie-obnoxious. I'm a LLL/MMM with golden undertones and it looks simply gorgeous on. One coat is very subtle and adds just a hint of sheen. A few coats and the pink is more visible, but my lips don't feel too 'coated' since the formulation is so light.

I wanted to like this one but it looked horrible on me. It felt wonderful, but I just can't carry off a lot of pinky lipsticks. It kind of washed me out. I am neutral toned. I think this lipstick would look better on cool-toned women.
