Clinique Plushest Punch Chubby Stick Intense ($16.00 for 0.10 oz.) is described as a “raspberry pink.” It’s a bright, bold raspberry pink with a natural sheen. Tarina Tarantino Fuchsia is darker, redder. MAC Impassioned is brighter. Guerlain Gigi is very comparable.

It has full color coverage, and the pencil has a great consistency–just creamy enough to apply evenly and smoothly but not thick, so it adheres well and doesn’t feather or bleed. I’ve mentioned it before, but it bears repeating: this range is very much an opaque one, though Clinique describes the coverage as “perfectly in between” sheer and opaque. The other issue I’ve had is that these aren’t that moisturizing (some better than others). Plushest Punch was moderately hydrating, and of the ones I’ve tried thus far, it was the most hydrating. It wore long and well, though, topping five hours with a very subtle residual stain that lingered for the next hour.

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

I guess I don’t need Gigi now that I have this 🙂 That’s $48 saved, lol. I actually find this somewhat moisturizing, or at least it doesn’t make my lips feel dry until it wears off. Although my lips have been less dry overall lately, so that may be part of it.

I have this, it’s a great spring/summer color. I really like the Clinique Chubby Sticks especially because they travel really well (I always keep one in my bag). It looks great on you, thanks for the swatches!

I have this one and I love it. The color is great, it’s convenient, and looks lovely when I’m wearing it. I think it’s a pretty good price too-especially for a non-drugstore brand.
