I'm obsessed with this color...
the combination of black honey + a lip liner close to one's natural lip color can look perfect on anyone with any skin tone imo.
I have neutral to cold undertones and my sister has warm undertones. the color looks different but nice on both of us.
sometimes I like to wear Fenty Gloss Bomb in Hot Chocolit on top of it, the combo is a perfect brown shade!
