Clinique Butter Shine Lipstick

After sharing with you Clinique High Impact Lip Colour in Cider Berry, allow me to share the other lipstick shade A gave me. It's also from Clinique but this time it's an orange shade coined as Ambrosia, yes, the food of the gods.

When I first saw this lipstick I giggled and thought of Dumbledore's wand. haha Is it just me or it looks a lot like the Elder wand from ther Harry Potter series? I think it's just fascinating, the resemblance. :)

Ambrosia no 409 is a deep orange lipstick shade with a hint of golden bronze shimmer. It doesn't give full coverage but its sheer to moderate color pay-off but I think it's a nice warm shade that can accentuate a nice tan, for those who have it, or underplay heavily coated lashes, to those who flaunt it.

From Clinique website: "The creamiest, richest, smoothest lip colour you can imagine. Our revolutionary gel formula delivers the shine of a gloss, the comfort of a lipstick. Drenches lips in moist, lush colour that glides on buttery-soft, feels luxuriously smooth."

Retails at $14.50 a tube. (price is based on Clinique website)

It comes in an array of shades, but what I have is Ambrosia which looks like this:

Look closely (click the photo to enlarge) and you'd see orange sparkles. :)

My naked lips...

My lips, buttered up...

:)

I'm not a huge fan of the shade but the sparkles... ahh the glitter it delivers is swoon worthy. :)

I'm not a huge fan of the shade especially beside my Cider Berry lipstick, but it works really well as a lip color + gloss + balm. Yes, it's very creamy so my lips weren't left to dry with this product on. I'm not surprised because the Butter Shine range is enriched with the moisturizing qualities of shea butter. :)

Other shades include names at par with Ambrosia like of course, the regal Pink Goddess (shade below)

But if I were to try other shades from this line, I'd try these three: Pink-a-Boo, Crushed Grape and Baby Baby.

How about you? What lipstick shade are you most fond of?

Now, before I type in the ingredients disclosure for this said lipstick, let me put myself up to the challenge. Labia ultra cremoso de acabado brillante I'm pretty sure it says its a creamy lipstick that leaves a brilliant sheen. :p
