MollyHell's Grab Bag - Clinique Black Honey Velvet

Clinique Black Honey Velvet is meant to be a companion to their wildly popular lipstick/lip gloss Black Honey. A dark sheer berry, you can make the lipstick lighter or darker in shade depending on the amount you apply. It's said to flatter all skin tones, and I believe it. It's a huge makeup staple for me.

The polish is the same berry but is only the darker shade. It's a jelly, and it applies surprisingly well for a makeup brand not focusing on nail polish. It's incredibly shiny. I got mine on eBay, as Clinique is no smarter than many companies and tends to discontinue their best stuff for no reason, like total idiots.

  3. That's a cool color, even though I don't tend to like jellys.

  4. I have the lipstick. I had no idea there was a matching polish. Looks gorgeous on you. Why do these companies do that when it's popular?

  6. I saw this post and I knew I had to have this polish. I actually found someone selling it on ebay, and I snatched it up as quickly as I could. I can't wait to get it! It's such a gorgeous color.
