Streamlined case with clear cap, similar to Topanga from this line. I use it midday to fill in or brighten up my lip color. Did not go on as well as others; agree on that, Christine. Nice vanilla scent. Great price and regular sales from CP are appreciated. Doesn't transfer easily. Always seeking a warm, not-too-dark terracotta.

I love colors like this for green eyes, but they probably work as an easy everyday color for all eye colors. Great smooth formula, leans slightly warm pink on me, which I love. More of a shimmer than a metallic, also OK by me. When I want a similar color with more sparkle, I have In Axis from this brand. This came in a cheap plastic clear case, fine since it would travel well or fit into an empty palette I will eventually buy. Oh, and this color in a glitter is Tequila Sunrise, sparkles so big they can fall off your lid, so I use that carefully.

A gentle clay coral color, very pigmented and a bit brighter than expected. This is a great midday fill-in lipcolor after lunch. I am trying some more of these, Parker and Brink, in my search for a light warm terracotta color that brightens up my pale face without being too bright, too dark, or too red. Pen-sized lipstick fits nicely in my small bag. Transfers a little, unlike the glam lux formulas, but not that much after a good blot.

This is a really great (for me) peachy red-tan with the slippy dry-but-not-drying matte finish like the old Ultima II mattes and Avon's PerfectWear. So many that I try in the hunt for this color are either too crazy-coral or too nude. I agonized over which color to choose and analyzed MANY reviews like these, lol. I still might get Regulate, 21 Questions, or CA Love. These are sooo fairly priced as well as cruelty-free and vegan. Formula does not transfer to your coffee cup easily. I'd love to see them add some shimmers. Thank you C for bringing these to my attention!

I tried a number of these and found Groupie to be a wonderful warm-tone glitter light red. The glitter gives a blur effect, but I also use a lighter lip liner to blur as well since I can't wear the crisp line that C does so beautifully. I just feel sad that Lancome animal tests, though I did not buy from Lancome. I also tried Maple Sugar (toward brown) and Ooh La La (toward pink). A little sticky, but this keep my lips from drying out.
