The lipstick is gently pigmented to offer a bitten lip look, but the colour is buildable too, in case you want a semi-sheer pop of colour, or a deeper berry hue.
While it is a lipstick, this design is more of a balm lip product rather than a matte lipstick or tacky gloss, which means it is also hydrating on the lips too.

How long is the Lookfantastic Black Friday sale, and when will the Lookfantastic Black Friday sale end?
has already kickstarted its Black Friday sale, so it may seem odd we are already wondering how long the sale will last, and when it will end.
Last year, Lookfantastic was one of the retailers to start their Black Friday sales early, and was one of the longest running Black Friday sales too as it ran for a full month.
The same applies for 2034 as Lookfantastic's sale will run for one month and come to an end on 2 December.
It's also not uncommon for some retailers and brands to extend their Black Friday deals well beyond Cyber Monday, so some offers may be around as late as mid-December.
Will the Lookfantastic beauty advent calendar be on sale for Black Friday?
Earlier this year it launched its Lookfantastic Beauty Advent Calendar, but it has now sold out due to popular demand.
has launched a number of other this year.
Whether the calendars will be reduced more on Black Friday remains unknown.
If you've got your eye on a specific calendar and you want to know if it's going to be reduced - we'd recommend bookmarking some of your favourite items, so you can easily check to see if it's gone down in price.
In the meantime, you may want to sign up to a Lookfantastic Box subscription so you can gain early access to the bundles when they launch, as well as claim an extra discount.
When is Cyber Monday 2024 and is Lookfantastic taking part?
When is Cyber Monday? The event takes place on the Monday after the Cyber Weekend, and this year it falls on 2nd December.
Lookfantastic has previously taken part in Cyber Monday promotions, and it will take part in Cyber Monday sales this year too.
New deals are dropping already at Lookfantastic to mark Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Cyber Monday will see one last push from the retailer to end the Black Friday sale on a high.
Lookfantastic is already offering up to 50% off select brands throughout (what we have coined) Cyber Month, and Cyber Monday will see a further discount on select items, as well as last minute daily flash offers.
It goes without saying that if you see something you have been desperate to get your hands on, and it gets reduced in Black Friday, add to basket immediately, as stock has been known to sell out fast.
