This product is supposed to be rich and creamy, but I find that it's quite dry once applied. You need to apply lip balm before applying the lip crayon, or alternatively you could put a coat of clear gloss over it.

I am also not a fan of glitter in lipsticks, and unfortunately these lipsticks all contain glitter/shimmer. They really should state this on the box.

The risque rose works well for lighter skin tones, although it will make you look washed out if you don't apply lip balm or lip gloss on top or underneath.
