Not Sponsored: I purchased Clinique's Must-Have Makeup Set for TWO reasons! The super cute tin, the makeup comes in. Peppermint candy lips? Yes, please! Adorable. The second reason was to try Clinique's famously popular Black Honey lipstick. I've heard so much about this lipstick and how it compliments all skin tones, that I had to give it a try. You receive four (4) products in this Christmas themed set. Let me share my thoughts about each. This set contains a Cheek Pop Highlighter in the shade Celebration Pop. It's a really pretty gold and shows subtly on the skin. I tried it on my brow bone, nose and cheeks. This set has an Almost Lipstick in Black Honey. Again, this is why I purchased this set. It's a beautiful shade. I love the color. But I wasn't WOW'd by it. It's nice, but it has a little stick to it. It leans more towards the lip gloss side (a little sticky). It contains a High Impact Mascara in Black. Again, its ok but I've had better mascaras. It also contains a Pretty Easy Liquid Eyelining Pen in Black. I prefer eye pencil liners. I will say, that this was easy to apply. Just take it one section at a time. If you do make a mistake, it's easy to remove (right then and there). Once it sets, it stays! But it easily comes off with Clinique's Take The Day Off Makeup Remover, which is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE makeup remover. This set must be selling like hotcakes, because I currently only see it at Kohl's. So if you want it, hurry and get it. I purchased mine from Sephora about a month ago and it was on Clinique's website, but they must've sold out of the set. There's also a Clinique skincare set, that contains its black honey lipstick.
Clinique Limited Edition Black Honey Must-Have Makeup Set is Bittersweet
Thank you for the honest review, Kim. I used to wear Black Honey a lot back in the day, but not so much anymore. I am a big Clinique fan but yeah...this set sounds like it's just meh....

No problem. I'm more impressed with the tin than the makeup :D
