Before Christmas Clinique bought out some lovely little limited edition gift sets. The Chubby Stick gift set in particular was extremely popular and I have been informed by Clinique counter staff that this sold out really quickly, long before Christmas! I would have loved to have received any of these gift sets for Christmas and I was indeed lucky enough to receive the Taste of honey set.

This set features a gorgeous pink box which has a wide purple looped ribbon on the side. You pull the ribbon and a tray slides out from inside the box.


This set contains four smaller versions of Clinique’s Almost lipstick in Luscious honey, Shy honey, Flirty honey and Black honey.



I do think that calling these Almost lipstick is a little bit misleading as I would expect a bit more colour intensity from something which is ‘almost’ a lipstick whereas these are very sheer and maybe better described as tinted balms.


The first picture shows one swipe of each shade which gives a very subtle colour, the lightest shade you can barely see. The second picture shows five swipes of each shade.
As tinted balms these are great for a subtle glossy colour and moisturisation, very similar to the Chubby Sticks.
This is a really pretty little gift set which is still available to purchase through the Clinique website http://www.clinique.co.uk/ for £21.00.
