CiM Tester Feedback

  • Testers report that Lipstick shifts in color depending on the type of lighting.
"Lipstick is a nice shade of brown and we are always looking for good browns. I think you should have it under both red AND brown. But if I had to pick only one category to put it in, I would actually vote for you to put it under brown." [Note: Lipstick is currently categorized as a red.] – Bethany Lemasters
  • Lipstick is a unique color in the 104 glass color palette.

"Lipstick is a beautiful dark brown/red and there isn't any existing color that comes close. It's such a pretty color that works well for me with fall and winter colors for my bracelets." – Gail Witt

“Lipstick, dark sky blue, and effetre yellow pastel shards on black base. Very southwest looking. The Lipstick and yellow combine into each other.”
Leslie Anne Bitgood
“Shards of dark ivory, Lipstick, and dark sky blue. The Lipstick reacted with the dark ivory and became a dark brown. I like the effect.”
Leslie Anne Bitgood
“Stringer of Lipstick on Peace and heat and gravity used to move around on base.  Areas of brownish red, red, and coral . . . “
