A sheer, natural berry color... didn't like it, looked greasy wand way too sheer. for a better full coverage version of this I prefer MAC's mystic l/s.

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 lived up to all the raves. I was a little nervous of the colour in the tube, since I'm a PPP, but it added a nice sheer tint to my lips, without drying or giving off that nasty lipstick taste....

Black Honey is a gorgeous shade. I don't wear it everyday, but it is my fall-back lipstick. It goes with everything and looks great if you want that no-makeup look. It's only problem- it does...

Black Honey, so far, has been the only lippie I've re-purchased -- three times, in fact! The color is a classic, a sheer, glossy reddish/berry. The only problems are that it doesn't wear off...

I prefer Club Monaco's sheer lipcolor a little more over this, but I really, really like Clinique's sleek silver tube. The color is so much easier to control in the smaller size. Black Honey has a...

I just love this color. I keep it in my purse and can put it on with or without a mirror. It makes an immediate improvement and is great if you want some color without looking made up.
