This gloss looks really scary in the tube. It looks like a very strong orange rust color with a sharp gold foil. In the tube it doesn't look like a color someone as pale as me should wear. But, surprisingly, it sheers down to a very pretty wearable color on my lips. It turns out to be a lovely coral with subtle gold shimmer. It works with the pigmentation of your lips. Mine have quite a pink tone to them so it adds to the color of this gloss, making it a peachy pink. Don't be fooled by how this gloss looks in the tube, it's much more wearable than it appears!NYX Mega Shines are my absolute favorite gloss in terms of price, packaging, formula and color selection. They aren't sticky and wear an average amount of time on the lips. They smell good. They're cheap, and there's a color for everyone. Love them!
