Get some sexy, shimmery & metallic nude lips with Honeybee Gardens' "San Francisco":
I am generally a bright colors kinda
gal, so nude lipsticks are not usually my go-to lip product. When I do wear
lipstick, I like to feel perked up by a vibrant color on my pout (otherwise
I’ll just wear a lip balm or gloss and let my natural lip color shine through).
But when choosing some samples of Honeybee Gardens’ lipstick a few weeks ago, I
decided to also try one of their lighter colors. The Honeybee Gardens
website does not describe this color
as “nude”, but I personally consider it a nude, since it’s such a light shade.
The shade is “San Francisco”, and as shown in the photos above,
one can’t deny that it’s a lovely, flattering shade. This light neutral color has
notes of pink and peach, with fine grains of shimmer that produce a metallic
effect. I find that really cool – and if I am going to paint my lips with
something that is lighter than my natural lip color, I’d at least like to have
a cool effect like a shimmer or a metallic sheen.
Honeybee Gardens Truly Natural
lipsticks are – as their title suggests – all-natural, as well as paraben free,
mineral oil free, and FD&C color free. This particular shade of lipstick is

This is the second Honeybee Gardens
shade of lipstick I have reviewed (the first was “Queen Bee”,which is definitely a gorgeous color of lipstick everyone should see to believe).
I have been super impressed with these lipstick formulas. They are
non-drying, stay put for a long time, and have vibrant pigments. The formulas
feel velvety and leave lips soft and protected.
