General comments:

• Multi-coloured shimmer in tube – blue and red most noticeable.
• Creamy, thick consistency.
• Highly pigmented.  Good colour pay-off but not so opaque to completely cover natural lip colour.
• Fairly moisturising.
• Vanilla fragrance.
• Plum-based red (slight purple cast) in tube transfers faithfully onto skin.
• Dupes: Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Cherries in the Glow (no shimmer, lighter consistency and no purple cast but transfers as a dupe on lips),  MAC Lustre Lipstick in Strawbaby from Fafi Collection 2008 (same shimmer and very close match in tube but doesn’t have the purple cast, lighter colour when swatched on skin and slightly more red-brown on lips).
