description

Transparent pigment merges with the unique, natural tone of your lips to create something wonderful and yours alone. Clinique's cult classic Black Honey is more than lipstick. It's a phenomenon. This iconic shade is famous for its chameleon-like ability to flatter all skin tones yet look different on everyone. The secret is its perfect blend of blue, red, and yellow pigments in a creamy, sheer base that melts into lips, playing up their natural color. Don't be fooled by the way Black Honey Clinique Lipstick looks in the tube. Transparent pigment glides on a sheer, glossy slip of lightweight color. Allergy tested. 100% fragrance free.

I kept reading about this one in magazines, and it looked like a different colour on every model I saw. I finally got a gift certificate and got a chance to get in and try it out at the Clinique...

I go through different "looks" like nobody's business - and my "look" of the moment is an attempt at fresh and natural. I've eliminated my usual eye makeup routine, opting instead for just black...

Nice color but too sheer. No staying power. Looks better in the tube than on your lips. Too expensive.

I wish I would have loved this...It did feel wonderful on my lips, smelled great, moisturized perfectly, but this color didn't appeal to me. It was more of a dark orangey-brown on my lips and I...

It's very very pretty. I tried my sister's on and I loved it. I read in Instyle that it's the perfect color for my skin tone but I was hesitant as it looks so dark. But it goes on nice and sheer,...

I always, always carry this in my purse (and that's saying a lot since I only carry my wallet, phone, keys, and lip balm besides that). Black Honey is a nice, sheer plum color, and I love it when I...

I love this formulation and the color. First, the almost lipstick formulation: This has a fair bit of color, and yet I don't need lipliner, and I could almost do without a mirror. It doesn't...

This is one of my favorite products. It is sheer enough that you can apply it without looking in a mirror, but the color is buildable. It is a totally natural color, and is flattering on basically...

This lipstick is so necessary. It creates the perfect effect of looking like you're wearing lipstick but maybe you aren't. Also it's the most pleasant and moisturizing lip color I think I've ever...

I like it a lot. Simple, natural, flattering, feels great when it goes on. It doesn't look like you are wearing anything. It's a very subtle "flushed" look, more of a stain than a lipstick. I guess...

Like many, heard all the hype, and expected more. I also thought the color would be more berry-ish on me. I found it unflattering on me personally, too warm. Like the Cover Girl products that are...

One of my absolute staples. Goes on like a lip balm and leaves a very sheer cherry-coloured stain on your lips. Perfect for everywhere. I use it every single day and one tube lasts forever. I'm...

I bought this lipsticks due to the big rave couple years ago. At first, I wasn't sure if I like it. It seems to be too dark for my liking. However, as I age maybe? I started to like this color so...
