Color not as described

The color says "coral pink". There is not an ounce of pink in this and doesn't look like the swatch online. It's BRIGHT orange! The formula is also very streaky.

True Blood

If you're looking for a pure blood red, look no further. I don't know how Ellis did it, but she created the most realistic blood red shade I have ever seen. It's absolutely uncanny. I say this as a red lipstick collector who has seen them all (I have a collection of more than 100 shades that is growing by the day). I've heard rumors that this shade is sometimes used by special effects teams as a stand-in for real blood, because the texture is quite perfect for the purpose too. To the point, I applied this with my fingers and caused a great degree of alarm and concern to a friend who walked into the room immediately after.

It's a soft, cushiony formula that wears comfortably and beautifully. You'll need to touch up after eating and drinking, but I am happy to sacrifice longevity for a more comfortable feel and a softer, more inviting appearance. This is a shade of red that is somehow both dramatic and quite demure--almost an accidental, blessed-by-the-gods flush of color. One of the few reds I will repurchase!

not worth the $$$

the color wasn't as expected at all and it wasn't even buildable. maybe i got a bad one but it didn't even stain my lips. It's comparable to a 99cent red lip gloss at the drug store.

You Must Have This

I love Red..... It's my favorite color, and there's nothing better than a totally kick a** red lip to perk the complexion up. If you are like me, and love red lips, you MUST own this shade.

It is a very creamy emulsion that spreads on this lips effortlessly. It's not tacky or sticky, it's just very rich and creamy. It's a lot like an OCC Lip Tar only in the sense that you only need a pin sized amount for a full application. If you like or want more intensity, all you have to do is take a tiny tiny bit more and layer it. it's just beautiful. It dries down to a really pretty intense stain that is impressively durable.

This product is well worth the $$ and I'm now a big time fan of the milky lips. :) I've attached a photo of it on my lips...Sorry for the odd angle, but it's very rare to get a picture of any part of my face willingly because I am extremely camera shy. That should tell you something right there...I love this product enough to be photographed wearing it. :)
