All in all, I really think this shade is gorgeous and is worth trying, especially with the matching red nail polish that goes with it! The product is brighter than shown in the picture however it looks lovely with a full face of make up.

I don't think I'd try those particular shades again now because I still don't love bright pinks and reds on myself (Cherries in the Snow never looked remotely red on me either). Information on this site including any product label or packaging should not be considered as a substitute for advice from a healthcare professional. They're really comfortable and easy to use--at least the three shades I have now: Cherries in the Snow, Berry Haute, and Fire and Ice. The formula is creamy but surprisingly long-wearing: I wore it to my 24th-birthday dinner at the ( now defunct, alas) Magnolia Grill in Durham, and it stayed on my lips through three courses.

To achieve more buildable coverage, use more dabbing motions to apply the color and press lips together to diffuse the color. I also put it next to some roses I just recently picked out of my own garden (okay, I don’t have a “garden”, that sounds really fancy- maybe “yard” is a better word! I’m often too scared to wear a full on red lipstick (although I can recommend several red lip butters also from Revlon here for a softer look) but this one seems more manageable. We’ve re-defined the rules of matte lipstick with this lightweight, non-drying matte lipstick formula.

The lighting can also change things as in less direct light the color looks more red and when the flash comes on you can see more of the pink. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. If anything, I've found something better in lipstick, because no red has ever looked as good on me as Cherries in the Snow/Cherry Picking.If you're darker and looking for more of a true red, I would recommend a different shade that I'm going to be doing a review on very soon! Revlon Cherries in the Snow Super Lustrous Creme Lipstick has been around at least since the 50’s, from what I can find, which tells you something about it’s popularity and lasting power as an iconic lip shade.

I bought that nail polish for my mom last Christmas, she likes reds and I thought it was so classic and a rich, vibrant colour.

And a final fun fact: Cherries in the Snow may be the best-selling nail polish of all time, since it was the only one out for quite a while, and then became THE nail polish every fashionable woman wore in the 30s and 40s. It's not nearly as bad as some I've used, but if you are very picky, you might want to exfoliate before applying it. As you can see in my swatch below, my skin has some neutral and warm undertones so it leans a little bit more pink. A very particular lipstick, and old favourite, and I just had to know if I was imagining it, or if I was in fact thinking of the right thing.
