What the gurus are saying

The experts praise this shade for balancing bold pigmentation with a hydrated, glossy feel that works well for low-maintenance makeup routines. One guru notes it delivers the look of a tinted gloss but with noticeably more color payoff, and wears it regularly in fall. The price point, typically higher, occasionally drops, making it worth trying for anyone curious about the viral shade.

"The Clinique Almost Lipstick in the shade Black Honey, which you guys know has been viral, you know it went viral again over the past couple of years. This is going to be $12.50, it's normally $25, so again if you haven't tried it and maybe it was the price that was stopping you, I feel like now is a great time."

"Clinique's Almost Lipstick in the Black Honey shade is perfect for fall, and if you're someone like me who's very low maintenance in your makeup, this is great because it gives that hydrated gloss from like a lip gloss but the pigmentation that you get from it is much bolder than just a tinted lip gloss. I frequently wear this shade in the fall and always get compliments."
