Not a wide variety of colors, comes off easier than I had expected but doesn't stain. If you are looking for a "wear and go", this is great. However, if you are looking for a "stay and go" this may NOT be the best lipstick for you.
I hate to be a nay-sayer for one of the most highly recommended lip products, but I totally don't think this is a universally flattering colour. Clinique promotes it that way, but I've tried this off and on since high school, and I sitll don't like how it looks on me 10 years later.
The packaging is pretty and I like the texture. However, I don't find this adds a long lasting enough color and it doesn't offer the nice shine of a gloss. I guess that's why it's called "almost lipstick", but I don't really get the point - I either want the rich creaminess of a lipstick, or I want the glossy look. This weird in-between product just doesn't have a place in my wardrobe. The black honey color also looks strange on my Asian skin tone. It's not flattering even though I normally can pull off berry and wine colors well.
Thankfully my mother likes it so she gets to benefit from my off-an-on attempts with this color over the years!
