Not only is this one of my favorite lip sticks, it's perfect for my purse with its built-in mirror. I like the heaviness of the tube, it's easy to find at the bottom of my bag and feels balanced in my hands when I go to apply it. The lip stick itself is perfectly moisturizing, but the color is still matte. All in all, the total package.
The unique compact is exceptionally attractive, and fun to pull out in a crowd for the "wow" factor. It is creamy and moisturizing and so kind to the lips. The phenomenal color looks freshly applied for hours on end. And the color is nothing short of a dynamic blast of succulent rosiness.
