Real sensitive beauties
"Having celiac, I was very excited to order several safe lipsticks (first lipsticks in nearly a decade!), and this was the one I was most eager to try. The formula is really creamy and I appreciate the ability to build the intensity. I didn't expect it to lean quite so purple on me based on the model's photos, but of course everyone's skin tone will vary and I still find it a flattering color. I also really like that for such a deep color, it fades very nicely on my drier lips, not leaving any unsightly bits of color in the cracks."
