This overpriced blush is quite powdery and has too peachy a tone for me. Hoping it was more in the pink realm, it disappointed with a dull, yellowish cast that I did not care for. It sits on my vanity now, ignored.

Honor is the shade worn by Kjaer Weis herself. It's one of her several nude shades that are completely unique, including Gracious and Serene. Light in color, neutral and youthful, they are as close to a natural look as I've found. Heavy application isn't required to get that unaffected, healthy, pure and clean look that she promotes. Apply one layer, press lips together and go. Or, tap it on with fingertips and gently blend. Those with darkly pigmented lips might find these lipsticks are their best friends for a subtle look that whispers "virtuous, natural beauty". These lipsticks are concentrated and thick, densely pigmented. Honor is the creamiest of the three and perhaps the most sheer, although it's not really sheer. It's just less concentrated than the other two. These shades are quite similar - all light pink with various distinguishing subtleties. Calm is a fourth shade that can be added to this group of clean, light and natural looking lipsticks, but it's less pink and more warmly beige. Some might be annoyed by their density, calling them dry. I love them. These three are among the best, most beautiful lipsticks I've ever acquired. They're priced similarly to other luxury lipsticks and are refillable. You can use the refill if you don't want to spend the money on the heavy silver metal case, but I found it's a bit messy that way. I was thrilled to discover these lipsticks and wear them frequently.

Beautiful color that complements my skin tone. However, it's too sheer and seems to last about 15 minutes on me. I wish they would make this color in a more intensely pigmented, longer lasting lipstick.
