This was a surprising purchase for me. I didn't even know this brand existed, but picked up a tube at a drugstore somewhere in Fort Lauderdale on vacation. The texture of it is extraordinary for the price point. I don't particularly love MAC lipsticks because I think they're sort of dry despite the lovely pigmentation. Instead, I reach for NARS or Chanel because they manage to have both slip/moisture and staying power. This lipstick has it all. I would have no idea this was a DS lipstick if I didn't know better. The color is pretty good too. It's a lovely, pinky coral. It does pull a bit hot pink on me, and sort of changes colors after it's warmed up a bit on my lips. The only other line I have ever tried that changes colors on my lips like that is Tarte. But it's not too bothersome. All in all, I would try another lipstick from this line because I think you get an awful lot of value for your money.

I agree with the pastel Barbie comments. I have light,warm toned skin and this color was awful on me. I actually love the lipstick formula which is sheer but with good color pay off. I have the colors My Favorite and Paprika and wear them all the time but the coral was a complete no go for me.

I love everything about Coral with the exception of the formula. On my neutral-pink PPP complexion this is a standout. No bizarre orange creme color here just a very flattering cool coral that makes the rest of my face look peaches and cream and; I don't find this matronly or aging in any capacity. I'm blond and don't look like imbecile Barbie in this color in fact I look outright elegant and ready for the warmer months. This formula is free of all shimmer and is moisturizing but my one complaint is that its a bit too sheer for my liking. I need to apply Blistex prior to this otherwise the color creeps into any lip creases that I didn't know I had and that clearly aren't there when I wear creamier formulated lipsticks. This one con is not enough to make me remove a lippie or not want to try another color from Nuance. Lasts an average amount of time and is not staining.

I bought this and returned in within 24 hours. The color was very aging on me. I'm NC15-20 with gold tones and cool blonde hair. Some corals can be aging, including this one. Plus, it shrank away from my lipline in a short time, making my lips look smaller. It isn't a bad product, just bad on me and overall not very special.

I am very fair skinned, and purchased the Coral today...and I must say, it looks absolutely beautiful with my coloring. It is moisturizing with a good color payoff. I have heard from others that her lipgloss is also very nice and stays on. I am actually looking forward to getting back over to CVS this weekend (where it is exclusively promoted) to pick up the lipgloss, the cheek trio and eyeshadow quad after watching a few promising reviews on YouTube.

coral turned out to be a pastel barbie pink on my pigmented asian lips. no no! i returned it today. i give it 3 stars for the great color payoff, price and its very moisturizing. i expected a more orange pink tone but this was almost a white pink on me. not flattering :/ i also purchased the dusty rose but i kept that one.
