Bobbi Brown Lipstick - Uber Pink

Dented packaging; blame my bag. I practically tote around a library and technology hub in it, so things do get a bit... Tossed around.

I find that impulse buys are often some of the best buys when it comes to makeup shopping - at least, they are for me. Is it the same for you guys? I took a trip to the mall today (again) and ended up buying myself a new lipstick - Bobbi Brown's Creamy Lip Color in Uber Pink. Unlike the Barbie pink you might expect with it's, er, rather obnoxious name, the colour is actually anything but. Take a look:

The case is truly wonderful - smooth and shiny and oozes class.

The colour's actually a bit darker than this, but the picture came out a bit odd. That being said, as stated below, it's a colour that looks quite natural on your lips.
 It's a lovely and very natural colour, so if you're planning on using any lipstick that can double as both an everyday lipstick as well as something with just a bit of shine for a night out, this is the one for you. As it says on the can, it's smooth and creamy - it actually feels a bit like lip gloss on your lips, but it definitely doesn't look like it. It lasts a long time, and it's got enough of a shiny glimmer to it that makes it stand out.

Colour swatch - but my hand's not really the best way to tell. Can you see the tiny pinpricks of shine in there?
Has anyone else tried this lipstick before? What are your opinions of it - and are there any you like better? 

Until next time!
