The color is a true peachy salmon color which is neutral and lovely defining the smokey eyes amazingly well, yet does not wash you out. The texture is very smooth and creamy to apply and requires no tugging or pulling even on dry lips. Being a pale lipcolor however it is advisable to exfoliate and moisturise lips adequately otherwise it does accentuate fine lines a lot. After sometime, the lip color settles into a semi matte soft finish and lasts for about a couple of hours maximum since it is such a light shade! The color Salmon is indeed a pale pretty natural peach color which is the ultimate dream of smokey eye lovers to compliment their heavy eyes and for the peach lovers to go with their soft breezy daytime looks. It does look too light in the bullet and I was so scared at first that it would wash me out but thankfully it does not. It looks very natural and classy and I can blindly pair it up with any look and dress.
