pink!
Nude year round! I love Tom Ford Blush Nude and use it everyday. Right now, I’m layering it with Bobbi Brown Bellini lipgloss on top for a slightly pinker lip, but if I wanted a peachier/more coral look, I love it with Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Evasion!
This definetely hast to be “watch me simmer” by Mac! I love it!
Coral and Nude. Actually I prefer Nude, so I can use neon colors on my eyes and be happy *-*
Peach/Coral…Loving Revlon Colorburst lipgloss in Papaya currently .
MAC See Sheer and Lipglass Morange. Strangely enough, Morange doesn’t look as “loudmouth orange” on me as it does in swatch pictures.
MAC’s Vegas Volt, Viva Glam GaGa II or – most recently – Spice. Don’t know why I wear MAC more frequently in the summer than any other time.
I actually wear a variety of colors year round, though I do lean toward a lighter color spectrum in the summer. Pinks and fuschias rather than vampy reds and purples, etc.
The shades that probably get the most rotation – Covergirl Lip Perfection in Darling, Soulmate, and Eternal, Dior Lip Addict in Rose Shocking, and Bobbi Brown’s Party Alice.
I have three: Nude, Bright Pink and Orange… I base my lipstick on what I wear on my eyes.
I don’t change my lipstick colours for the summer. There are no seasons here except for Hot, Hotter & Hell, so I just stick to wearing whatever my mood dictates for that day or look.
Peach, Coral, Orange, Pinks of the bright variety, and Yellow/Orange Reds.
Same like you! CORAL!!!
MAC’s Force Of Love lipstick… SO appropriate for Summer.
Anything that’s bright and fun! Fuchsia, watermelon pink, and orange come to mind!
Corals and bright pinks! Current coral fave is either Korres Mango Butter Lipstick in Coral or Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Kiss me Coral. Two brighter pinks that are in the rotation are MAC’s Speak Louder (cremesheen) and Revlon’s Persian Melon. Pair any of those with a shimmery gold eye, black mascara and some bronzer and that’s me every day in the summer!
Bright hot pinks! I actually wear them all year round but I guess I do have more opportunities to wear them during the summer.
Pink, pink coral or plum or red or sheer lipsticks in many shades. ( Roman Holiday, Niagara, Vendanges from NARS, Charme, Paradis, Magnolia, Candeur Coco Shine, Chance Coco Shine from Chanel, Pour troubler or Jardins de Bagatelle from Guerlain, Offshoot from M.A.C, and others !
I love Illamasqua Brick lipstick with a little gloss on top.
ooooh i love pinks! i just got Chanel Romance Rouge Coco Shine for this summer. It’s really well pigmented and just bright enough! So lovely.
i would say a bright pink lipstick or lipgloss, a la MAC show orchid or NYX’s dolly pink lipgloss =)
For work I stick with soft peaches and pinks. But otherwise, I like Fuschi for summer. I can do minimal make up otherwise and I’m done. Looking to get So Chaud this summer as well for another bright lip.
MAC – Quick Sizzle, Pink Pigeon, Hibiscious, Roman Holiday, Morange. I go to MAC first. Then a Revlon Coral and a few magenta/pink shades from Mabaly…..
Pinks with brown tones. I am head over heels for Revlon Pink Truffle:
@Chris25
This is my new daily lip-I love it, especially bc I can reapply without a mirror
Ohh I’m awful, I love dark lipsticks so red all the way and maybe some hot pinks like Illamasqua’s Atomic and sometimes Scandal!
I am loving Bobbi Brown lipstick in “Guava” which I saw on you Christine and right after that I went to Nordstrom and bought it. It was the last one there and so happy with my purchase. Thank you for your wonderful reviews and swatches. It makes me detail out my shopping list and be more diligent in my spending.
Thank you!
@Christine (Temptalia)
Hehe, I bought Guava after seeing in on Temptalia too
MAC See Sheer or MAC Ever Hip with Smile Dazzleglass on top
!
For summer, I like a sheer true red, or pinky-red.I also love some shimmer on top!
Me, too, Christine! MAC Cockney and MAC Lady Bug come to mind. But any coral/orange from any brand will satisfy.
A combination of MAC’s Asian Flower sheen supreme lipstick, Magenta lip liner & dazzleglass in Funtabulous! Makes for the perfect lilac color on me. Love it!
MAC’s morange and mocha!! love the orangey colors for summer!
I love corals and orangey hues too for the summer! One of my favourites is a Paul & Joe from last summer’s collection. I also love light, moisturizing formulas so I go for my Chubby Sticks by Clinique, and this year the Colorburst Lip Butter by Revlon.
Mac See Sheer along with a touch of hover lip liner to prep my pigmented lips. Its such a pretty color and absolutely perfect with the minimal makeup I use in the face melting summer heat!
at the moment, revlon lip butters. don’t like the feeling of full lipstick when it’s hot out. any sheer red-pink just bitten color
MAC Impressive and Plumful for sure!
I don’t have one specific go to color, but I love corals and oranges in the summer. Mac Morange and Vegas Volt are two of my favorites.And this year I’ve really been loving Mac Speed Dial for my go to bright pink. I just got Sail La Vie at Mac and I’m really excited to try it out!
Rouge Coco Shine in Aventure by Chanel is my favorite color for this summer. It’s bright, but light enough and feels really smooth on the lips.
fashion city ! or dressmaker whats yours?
MACs Watch Me Simmer lipstick, beautiful corally pink.
Any bright or neon pink, orange, fuchsia or purple for sure!
Watch me Simmer as well!! It’s PERFECT!!! Also love Costa Chic.

Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey…. it’s a no fail, especially for darker skin tones.
Mac’s Vegas Volt
impassioned or any fuchsia lipstick
MAC please me
MAC Pink Nouveau or MAC Viva Glam Nicki!
Pinks–from all across the spectrum!
Any coral lipstick will do! Especially because every time I wear it, every body seems to compliment me. I really think coral is my color!
mac see sheer and lancome love it
Mac Impassioned and Chanel Genial. And for lipgloss it’s gotta be Mac Pink Lemonade.
Avon’s cool bliss lipstick in Frozen Berry
it has a cooling effect in it, and I love the color
MACs Candy Yum Yum and Watch me Simmer
Love coral for summer
MAC’s Candy Yum Yum and Viva Glam Nicki…. I really wished Watched Me Simmer worked for me but my olive skin is not forgiving on orange corals

Mac viva glam nicki, Mac impassioned
Bobbi Brown “neon pink”
MAC “Watch Me Simmer” & MAC “Sandy B”
Viva Glam Nikki and MAC morange!!!
Guerlain Nahema! I lovely pinky red coral!
Corals are my staple for the summer-time but I’ve been really digging OCC’s Beta Lip Tar lately, I didn’t think I could pool it off b/c I’m very fair and cool-toned but I’ve been rockin’ it.
Coral, hot pinks and purple!
I could say corals, pale lavenders, pinks, etc… But really, I just put on whatever my mood tells me to!!
Clarins Joli Rouge Lipstick in 707 Petal Pink. So moisturizing and so beautiful on tanned skin
I’m really loving Illamasqua’s Eurydice. Been wearing that one alot!
Smashbox Electric Pink is another beautiful one.
Barry m pastel lavender
Urban Decay’s Punch Drunk!!!
Coral or bright pink!
I don’t know how i screwed up my “reply” twice, but i wanted to chime in and say, “me too!” about buying Guava because of your swatch. (Sorry i messed up the message board)….
Lately, Chanel Mademoiselle. It’s just perfect for dressing up my stupidly pigmented lips without being bright (since I’ve been very neutral all over, or bright eyes lately).
Morange Morange Morange!!
Mac Watch Me Simmer, Sail la Vie, Impassioned, Hibiscus(Surf Baby), Candy Yum Yum, basically any of the Mac pink/corals! They are all Gorgeous
I am definitely in the coral camp!
Here’s a list of my favorites:
Wet ‘n Wild Mega Last in Don’t Blink Pink & Pinkerbell
Wet ‘n Wild Silk Finish in Nouveau Pink
Maybelline High Shine in Coral Lustre
Revlon Moon Drops in Persian Melon (LOVE this)
Milani Color Perfect in Rose Hip
NYX Black Label in Heather
Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Sweet Tart
CoverGirl Lip Perfection in Temptress
Maybelline Color Sensational in Coral Crush & Fuchsia Fever
NYC 2-in-1 Lip Color in The Rock-A-Fellas
Revlon Super Lustrous in Siren & Kiss Me Coral (mix each of these with a light pink lipstick and you’ll get the prettiest coral lip)
Corals and more pinkish lip colors!
Clinique’s Sugared Grapefruit.
MAC Viva Glam V…
MAC Eden rouge mattene, sail la vie, red racer, quick sizzle, the Sephora Pantone Tangerine Lipglosses, NARS Dolce Vita for when I need to tone that down at the Dr’s office or whatever. I still want to pick up Morange or Neon Orange and Korean Candy sheen supreme. Oh and Strut your stuff and Peacocky kissable lip colors.
MAC’s Vegas Volt or Funshine Slimshine topped with Revlon’s Coral Reef lipgloss…
So basically, I concur with Christine. CORAL IS THE BEST!!!
