I love any kind of orange, coral, or red lip color, and Carmine is a perfect go-to in that category. On my pale skin it is a bright orange-red, true to the name "Carmine." It has a satin finish and...

My HG lip color. On my golden complexion Carmine is wonderfully bright and I get tons of compliments when I wear this shade. It wears incredibly well, smells and tastes great and the packaging is...

I've avoided orange shades since seventh grade, when I made a profoundly uninformed purchase of a pot of frosted gloss in the most unfortunate shade of orange. But after seeing many, many...

Orange lipstick wasn't tops on my list, but when I got a sampler of Besame lip colors and tried the Carmine I was really surprised how neutral this color was. Granted, my application is very light...

A highly pigmented creamy lipstick that has incredible staying power. It is bright orangey-coral on me, not red at all. This is my first Besame lipstick, and if they are all this great, it...

This has pretty packaging and delivered a true pop of color to my lips. I think it is something well worth buying again and I love the vintage style of it. It is really well pigmented too which was...

I am taking off one lippie b/c I don't like this color. It is a bright orange, not my style. Otherwise, this is a heavily pigmented l/s, just like I like them. The color stays true and lasts on...

Time warp lipstick! Carmine is THE 40's lipcolor. Beautiful bright red-orange color that looks amazing with my fair-medium skin. I feel like Kathryn Hepburn in this lipstick. Super creamy and...

If you are one of those people on whom red shades tend to turn Fuchsia, then this is the right lipstick for you. You will also enjoy it when you like bright reds suitable for everyday wear. Carmine...

I'm taking one lippie off because the colour was too bright for me - although that's just my preference - and much lighter than shown on the site. However, the formulation was as what the previous...

I was *shocked* that this color worked on me. It looked hideously orange-red in the sample jar, but turned a lovely red-coral upon application. It's definitely a summer color for me (LLL with a...

Carmine is a beautiful true coral color. I am light PPP with yellow/neutral undertones, and Carmine looks very red-coral on me. Looks VERY similar to Clinique Colour Surge lipstick in "Peach Pop"...
