I have the Lipstain+Balm in "Twilight" it looks about 2-3 shades darker (a rasberry brown color) on me than the tube. It feels as if I'm not wearing anything on my lips; the balm is not waxy and...

Big improvement over CG's Outlast Lipstain. First, I think the shade selection is way better. Also, this takes a lot longer to wear off. The balm was a great idea; moistens my lips without being...
