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.

This was my first ever lipstick, and it has been a favorite of mine ever since. I wouldn't really call this a 'lipstick' because it comes on so light (and comes off fast too), but it gives the...

This looks good on most of my friends, and on me. I wasn't certain about the color at first, but it looks great (I'm fair, brown hair and eyes) on me and goes with most of what I own. I will...

I love soothing lipsticks, such as MAC's lustres and this clinique product. I have 4 of these, but Black honey and almost blush get the most use. Black Honey produces the bitten look, like you'd...

Goes on sheer despite looking dark. Nice color, but doesn't last as long as I'd like.

At first when I saw how DARK this was, I was really skeptical, but the color is light and natural. It compliments many skin tones and it's very sheer.

I love this stuff! I have always been a lip product junkie, but I usually end up with a lot of lipsticks, glosses and balms that I don't ever use again after the first few times. But Clinique's...

This has become my default "professional" lip look. Just a pretty, natural, polished stain. It especially looks great with neutral eyes. My HG for anytime I have a presentation, interview, etc....

I love this. This goes on so sheerly - but is so buildable to a dramatic, plummy red, so it's easy to go from "day" face to "night" face with this one. It also has a great formulation - doesn't...

One of my HG lipsticks simply because of the gorgeous color. However there is no lasting power, but I don't mind because I'm a gloss girl anyway so I'm used to reapplication. Plus because the...

Great lipstick! Leaves a smooth, natural-toned, red finish. Very mosturizing as well, and my lips peel really bad in the winter. Would definitley repurchase, but this stuff lasts forever!

I have been using this product since I was a sophomore in high school! It is one of the few lipsticks that doesn't dry out my lips. It is smooth and lovely and sheer. My only gripe is that it is a...

I love this especially in the summer or on "no make up" days. It looks like my own lips but with more ooomph. However, I have very naturally pigmented lips, it may be very different on lighter...

I was quite impressed that this shade looks so natural on my lips like I was born with this nice color. For me, staying power is average but it easily dries my lips unless I have a really good lip...

I love this lipstick. It is a sheer YLBB color on me. The price is good. As others have mentioned, the staying power could be better, but I don't mind reapplying. I also have this in a gloss,...

I bought this about a month ago so I could get the gwp. I haven't actually worn it more than 4 or 5 times because my lips have been chapped. I know it moisturizes, but when I apply it, it tends...

I got this as a sample at bonus time and feel in love. It just the perfect sheer hint of color to go on your lips when you're not in the mood for heavy lipstick. Beautiful.
