Black Radiance Perfect Tone Lip Color, Sundrenched Bronze, 0.13 Oz

Great quality
Super pigmented. I dab it on until i achieve the color I like. Forgot the name but I have shade number 5016. Amazing quality and not drying.

Creamy, Opaque True Red
This lipstick color is comparable in color and texture to Yves Saint Laurent’s Rouge Pur Couture Satin lipstick. I was hoping that this lipstick would have more magenta pigment in it but it’s just enough to keep this as a true red (a touch more blue than an orange hue). This lipstick looks differently in the tube, on the hand and on the lips. My lips are pretty pale to begin with and usually every lipstick turns a brighter color on me. Taken in the bedroom with my flash on, on my arm, the swatch/sample looks a bit more of a pink than red hue (slightly); it is a beautiful color. I think this is going to be my perfect red lipstick (I was trying to find a bit bluer of a hue in a red lipstick, so I’ll keep searching for a color similar to Tom Ford’s Cherry Rush), as it can be worn with various shades of red, orange or pink in your clothing/outfits. The consistency is normal for a lipstick (glides on smoothly, no inclusions/gritty texture), has no strong or adverse smell or taste, and came in good-sized tube. It came perfectly sealed and no issues until my kitty knocked it onto the floor and the base of the lipstick shore itself from the plastic tube and it stuck to the lid, and usually, even if you drop lipstick, it isn’t going to sever itself and come away from the base. I was able to put it back on and it’s usable but probably not able to be rolled up, so I’m going to have to put this in a little round plastic cosmetic container that I’d purchased here a while back. The lipstick is a perfect shade between slightly coral and a slightly pinker red (in the first photo, the lips appear more corally-colored than fuchsia, so keep that in mind that lighting and skin tone plays a big part in the end color); it’s a great staple in your makeup pantry and if you needed just one red lipstick to pack on a trip, it should be this one! It seems to want a lipliner but don’t feel like you HAVE to have one due to bleeding/feathering. I think it just make the lips look more defined (I have no lipliner on in my photo). After you blot or wipe the lipstick, the lips have a more of an underlying fuchsia hue and is great for staining (which is why you see such a discrepancy in color in my photos- the redder, darker lipstick is the one with the slightly orangey hue (although in natural light it looks red with a touch of goody-orange, and if you blot, you take those notes off and reveal the bluer pigment in the stain, which is what the other photo shows).The price is amazing and it came fast (within a week) but remember, Amazon sometimes uses the USPS to send items, and if your mailbox is outside, it may melt or freeze, depending upon the weather. I also give credit to USPS for all their hard work, but using them to ship items instead of Amazon, and you run the risk of smashed, broken and melted or frozen makeup. Could have been/should have been packaged by Amazon, however, such as in a firm box where the lipstick is better protected, because my item only came in a padded, brown paper mailer (not the blue and white one seen in my photo); it likely came like that because it came alone- I ordered it as a BUY NOW item, with no other items.

Not smooth
This lipstick does not go on very smoothly. It looks somewhat smudgy and grainy. I also dislike the tube because you can’t wind the lipstick all the way back in; it stays out and gets damaged when you put the cap back on unless you are super careful. Which I don’t want to have to bother about. The color looked great in the video I watched, but in person, it’s not as nice. Disappointed.

Works as expected, color is nice
Color is nice.

Bought these for my auntie. Unfortunately only one looks presentable. That is quite a bit of money to get something so smashed up. So sad.

The colour was not as expected

Good lipstick. Just that it’s a different colour in person.
