One of the biggest beauty surprises recently has been the CK One Color line- specifically the lip colors. I wrote about one of the lip glosses not too long ago here, and I have one of the Shine Lipsticks to review today.

I bought shade 800-Naked (WHAT?! Laura bought a nude lip color? YOU LIE.) and I couldn’t be happier. It’s hydrating, sheer, and goes with just about anything. Even in the picture above, you can see how shiny the bullet is.

In the swatch above, the left swipe is just one pass of the lipstick, while the right side is multiple passes. Usually, one or two passes is plenty for me, and I actually think if this was opaque, I wouldn’t like the color. It’s a little on the red-side of nude, and I do prefer mine a bit more brown. However, since it’s not opaque, it works really well for me. Because the lipstick is so emollient, I get between 1-2 hours of wear time.

Of course, this color ends up being one of those my-lips-but-better shades and hard to see much of a difference on. Just how I like it.
I’ve played with the rest of the shades in this line, and I’m really looking forward to buying more!
You can find the CK One Color Shine Lipsticks exclusively at Ulta stores and Ulta.com for $16.
