I don't have a Nordstrom's near me, so I took a chance and ordered this lipstick on line without ever having tried it on. I know the Burberry colors, and have always loved their reds; this red is a very deep red, with a lot of brown in it, the Oxblood. It is a little 'goth' if used alone (at least on me), but I love mixing some of the reds, and this is a great color, especially for winter. The lipstick goes on easily and smoothly, is very smooth and moisturizing, and it is long lasting. I doubt I will ever use another brand of lipstick again, this is exquisite. The lipstick case is also fantastic! The top glides on and magnetically 'clicks' closed. Cool, for a very 'hot' lipstick! Highly recommend!

This color is a really neutral shade that would look good on anyone. Very creamy and lasting. But the most fun thing is that the lid is held in place magnetically!
This lipstick's color is very natural, at least for an Asian girl like me. The case design is unique, too --- the magnet inside the bottom makes the cap easily attach to it. The lipstick itself feels very gentle, not sticky/creamy, and not too rich but keeps your lip moist. It lasts long enough, but I still reapply it after meals. I like it:-)
I got this in cameo, and it was a little too peach for me, so I returned it. However, the formula is nice and smooth. Long lasting. I'm going to try this in another color.
