Who it suits

Colour theory suggests Clinique Black Honey works with cool, neutral and warm undertones.

Its deep depth sits most naturally on medium, tan and deep skin.

A gloss finish is shiny and often sheer, so Black Honey can read lighter and more translucent on the lips than its hex; payoff depends on the formula.
