Fall Lips: Clinique's Lipsticks to the Rescue

In my quest to find some great choices for fall lips, Clinique’s lipsticks in A Different Grape, Black Violet, and Double Truffle appealed to me. (I really love the Double Truffle name; it makes me giggle!) The lipstick formula itself is creamy, softly shimmery (reminds me of a lustre). The shimmer looks more like a nice glossy sheen once applied to the lips.

See swatches and lip swatches!

I’ve always liked Clinique l/s. My best friend wears A Different Grape as her everyday color and I wear Bamboo Pink and a discontinued color (Raspberry something).

However, I’m now in love with the new Urban Decay lippies. They’re super moisturizing and feel like I’m wearing nothing.

A Different Grape looks wonderful! Are they High Impact Lipsticks or …? Some colors of High Impact lipsticks like Plum Nude and After Party just completes fall’s trends.
