I got this lipstick sometime back, and even though I love it
to the core, I wonder what took me so long to review it here. Summer season
brings with itself the possibilities to experiment with bright colors and even
though this lipstick isn't too bright, I still love to sport it a lot these
days. Check out more details below:

My experience with
this lipstick
When I saw the lipstick bullet, all I could imagine was getting bright orange colored lips while wearing this. However, surprisingly this
lipstick is quite sheer yet buildable. It is loaded with very minute shimmers
and gives a glossy finish. Despite being sheer and glossy, what I loved the
most about this lipstick was its staying power. It stays on my lips for 4+
hours despite eating or drinking anything, and even after that remains as
stain. Also, the shimmers don't make patches on my lips, and fade decently. The
first time I applied this lipstick, I tried some 2-3 coats and all I could
think of was the orange ice candy I used to have in childhood. My lips would
become similar orange tinged that time too. The lipstick has a faint floral
fragrance, but is tasteless, which I like. Also, it is very very moisturizing,
as the day I clicked the pics for this review, I had slightly chapped lips and
after 4-5 hours my lips were all smooth, soft and super moisturized.

likes and dislikes below:
Likes:
1) Gorgeous orange color loaded with very fine shimmers, and
gives a sheer and glossy finish to the lips.
2) The lipstick though sheer, can be easily built to get
proper color.
3) Has a good staying power of 4-5 hours.
4) Very moisturizing.
5) Comes in an awesome sturdy packaging that looks classy.
Dislikes:
I've read somewhere that Calvin Klein has discontinued its
cosmetics range. Don't know how true is that, but it is pretty bad if they have
done that. :(
Overall, I
absolutely love this lipstick and its shade. If you are looking for a wearable
orange and still can get hands on this beauty at certain stores, then I'd
definitely recommend you to go for it.
