Priced
Let me recommend you to Clinique Nude Honey almost lipstick. I was a long-term lover of the clinique series almost lipstick, and like many, I really liked the cult-classic black honey. Then I tried the softer, pink honey, which I examined here. But now … there is a new candidate and dare to say, maybe it is my favorite!
If you are wondering how it compares to black honey and pink honey, I have all the samples, details and comparisons below.
What is clinique almost lipstick?
Before we reach the majesty that is naked honey, here is a quick renewal.
Clinique almost lipstick is one of the most virtual types of the brand. It is not a lipstick enough, it is not enough for a balm, it is this perfect hybrid of pure color, light texture and a soft finish.
It is incredibly flattering, extremely easy to apply (no mirror!), And it has a cult that follows for good reason. If you have tried black honey, you will know exactly what I mean.
Clinique nude honey almost lipstick – my criticism
First impressions
As soon as I opened the tube, I knew I would like to love naked honey. The bullet looks like a rich, warm naked, almost caramel, but as with all almost lipsticks, real magic occurs when you apply it.
On the lips, the bare honey turns into a pure, peach-bridal hue that enhances your natural lip color beautifully. It has the same effect “your lips but better” as black honey, but with a softer, more sunny feel.
Texture and formula
The formula is, as always, dreamy. It slides effortlessly, giving a clean color washing that builds slightly with each layer. It feels moisturizing, but not sticky and is like a nutritious lip balm in an elegant form of lipstick.
This is the kind of product I can push during the day for a polished, underestimated appearance or pair with bronze eyes (ie my Reeson Lid Elixir on toasted cinnamon*) And the shiny skin for a summer evening atmosphere.
Naked honey vs. black honey vs pink honey
If you were able to catch my previous post, you will know that black honey was a favorite favorite. It is a deep shade of berries that somehow fit everyone. Then came pink honey, a soft, silent pink that is perfect for spring.
But now? I really believe that naked honey is the best of the bunch. It is the most costume for every day and brings this delicate warmth to the face that makes you look more alive.
Here is a quick comparison:
- Black honey – rich berry
- Pink honey – soft pink pink
- Bare honey – Pure peach bare
Swatches – bare honey, black honey and pink honey
Here are the samples so you can really see the difference in tone:
You can see how naked honey this golden, bronze warmth has. It is ideal for enhancing a summer tan or a little lift.
Final thoughts
Black honey has always been my favorite, but I think the bare honey has just overcome. If you are after something low maintenance, flattering and slightly different from your usual naked lipstick, this is a must-tory.
It is the type of lip that works with any appearance, from minimal makeup to full glam.
