This is just a flat out lovely lipstick - the "red" lipstick for anyone who's afraid of red but wants to look punchy anyhow for a night out or whatnot - it's hard to screw this one up. It's a neutral wine, and would look good on anyone, regardless of coloring. The formula is unbeatable, as well - long lasting, moisturizing with a very subtle, pretty sheen. My lips were nice and soft by the end of the day - glam chapstick. When it does fade, it does so flatteringly. Perfect.
