I fell in to the hype with Almost Lipstick Black Honey. Contrary to popular belief the lipstick is not a universal color. My MAC NC 30 skin can not pull this color off. It is very pretty and feels glossy. It is sheer and to build color you have to give it a few passes. In the second picture you can see how patchy the color is because of the gloss in it. It does have a little shimmer that is very refined and unnoticeable because it is sheer. I would have to say that I am disappointed the hue of this lipstick is more of a dark organgy red color it is not as burgundy as it seems in the tube. Save you 14 dollars or go try it out in the store. It is moisturizing, non drying, looks like your lips have been pinched, but for this I would use a revlon lip butter. I can get two lip butters for the price of this lipstick. Over all a D... I can't get over the fact that this is similar to a revlon lip butter and the revlon lip butters are more flattering and come in more shades.
