Black RadiancePerfect Tone Lipstick Lip Color Boss Brown

Very pretty purple/plum shade. goes on smoothly and has a creamy texture with a touch of pearl shine. Looks very nice on all skin tones.

Great color

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.

Love the color and will purchase again. Stays on for a while.

Dislike that it was not true color of gold

Love the shades great value

Broken it was melted crooked and broken inside the tube I was extremely disappointed I don't know it's not even that hot outside right now it's under 70° so it was no excuse for it to be melted and and broken I'm extremely disappointed they came fast however it wasn't worth it in the end when you have a product that you can't barely put on because it's broken

I am so glad I stumbled upon this hidden treasure because not only is it simply stunning, it's also so affordable! For under 2 bucks, "like what! Where has this gem been all my life!!" My lips stay very moisturized, yet this stays on my lips forever. When I tell you it doesn't budge, it doesn't budge. The colors expand through a variety of different elegant, unique, and exquisite shades. Hands down one of the best lipsticks I have ever worn and I have many from alot of different brands. Listen, as a matter of a fact, I purchased this one and then one from Revlon in the shade 850 Plum velour because I wasn't exactly sure which color I wanted or would like, well I am here to tell you Revlon has nothing on this brand let alone this shade. I returned the Revlon because the shade wasn't as vibrant or as beautiful as I'd originally thought. Although, a good formula, don't get me wrong, but still it cannot touch this brand Black Radiance. If you have not tried this brand yet take a chance on it, you'll thank me later. I have purchased 2 so far, this one and another berry shade I can't remember the name of the color though. Both are beautiful shades of a berry purplish pink color one leans more pink purple and the other leans more towards a purple reddish pink color. I put this lipstick on at 315pm and I had it on all night I fell asleep with it on and it was still on the next day. It came right off with micellar cleansing water though and did not stain. I highly recommend this product.(I added a photos of both lipsticks I have from Black radiance because I do not know which one is which because the shade names aren't on the tube just the shade numbers, that's a bit frustrating.) Pictures are inside and outside with and without flash.
