After three years, the Atlanta-based female R&B quartet of Xscape has returned with "Traces of My Lipstick," the follow-up to their platinum effort, "Off the Hook."

"Lipstick" features collaborations with such producers as Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, Daryl Simmons, as well as group mentor Jermaine Dupri and songwriter Diane Warren, who has penned such tracks as Toni Braxton's "Un-Break My Heart" and Monica's "For You I Will."

"We wanted to take ourselves to another level," said Xscape's Tasha on the group's collaboration with Warren on the song "The Arms of the One Who Loves You," "and she was the one to do it. [The song] talks about running to the arms of the one that loves you in any kind of relationship. Whether it's a mother-daughter relationship where the mom and daughter can't get along or a boyfriend and girlfriend that are broken up. So there's lots of different meanings you can have with that song."

"Traces of Lipstick" also includes the hit single, "Am I Dreaming," produced by Keith Sweat and featuring the vocal talents of Ol' Skool. "Lipstick" arrives in stores May 12.
