I don’t but like orange either but sickeningly so it’s a color that I look great in. LOL But if I’m gonna do it I prefer to wear a rusty-ish orange, a darker one. I like orange as a blush because it just lends a warmth to my skin as opposed to a full on screaming color to my cheeks.

Best orange eyeshadow? thebalm mischievous marissa I love this color to death– it’s also named for the founder so I’m guessing she likes it too lol

Best red lipstick? no real red here, closest would be EL black wine, Korres orange-red and revlon colorstay in stay ablaze

Best coral blush? Korres Coral absolutely! I’m not a fan of corals but this turned out to be a surprise hit– it’s my go to powder blush. I like Hot Mama too but it’s kind of shimmery for me for daily.

H’mmm, tricky…

* Best orange eyeshadow?
TheBalm Hot Mama blush used as an e/s, it’s a lot like Lancome’s Kitten Heel. It’s actually more coral but the closest to orange I’ve got!

* Best red lipstick?
Estee Lauder Signature Rich Red – luscious!

* Best coral blush?
TheBalm Hot Mama, it looks really orange in the pan but goes on with a tinge of pink and lots of gold glimmer – it’s really, really pretty! I’m in LOVE.

Annick Avatar

Best orange eyeshadow – I don’t really own any! 🙂
Best red lipstick – I love Cockney by MAC
Best coral blush – By FAR Virgin Isle CCB by MAC. LOVE.

Renee Avatar

Best orange eyeshadow: Urban Decay Jones(not BRILLIANT Orange, but PERFECTLY wearable)!
Best red lipstick: Shu Uemura 165 M
Best Coral Blush: Urban Decay Score Powder Blush (discontinued, whyyy!?) I haven’t tried the new blush tint on for Score so I can’t say it’s the same color, but I swatched one (Quickie) and they have a great cream-to-powder finish that I think will work over foundation beautifully.

Best orange eyeshadow?
I dont have any orange eyeshadows :/ i do have coppery ones!

Best red lipstick?
I’m not that into reds yet, but I love the new MAC Strut Your Stuff and MAC Cyndi

Best coral blush?
I was in love with NARS Orgasm, but I feel like there is more of a gold shimmer sheen, so i wanted to stick to something more coral and nothing else but a super pigmented coral blush. SO with that said, my favorite would be Rock & Republics Immoral.

Rayna Avatar

The Scorching Sun duo from Nars
Dior Serum de Rouge 850, or Buxom Barcelona
Laura Mercier Second Skin Cheek Colour in Lush Nectarine, or DiorBlush in Passionfruit

Best orange eyeshadow? Don’t own any! Orange looks terrible on me (although I really want to try NARS Taj Mahal blush!)

Best red lipstick? I recently added MAC Rebel to my stash. I LOVE the color but not crazy about the formula. Otherwise L’Oreal Infallible in Cerise. It’s my go-to red…it’s not too dark, compliments my skintone and looks great year-round!

Best coral blush? MAC Marine Life and NARS Super Orgasm.

Dishay Avatar

Best Orange E/S- NYX Tropical. Not too bright, slightly pinky, LOVE!
Best Red Lipstick- Maybelline Red Revival or Revlon Cherries in the Snow
Best Coral Blush- Hm… not sure. I don’t really own anything coral.

Jenny Avatar

Best orange eyeshadow: MAC Rule. I think more people should give orange eyeshadow a try. Used correctly, it can act as a bright skin tone. No really. I’m fair and extremely pink and it works awesomely. Stage makeup trick.
Best red lipstick: MAC Russian Red, but I have always gotten so many compliments using MUFE’s red flash color as a lipstick.

Best Coral Blush: MUFE HD Blush No. 6

Best orange eyeshadow?
Not technically orange but there’s definitely an orangey tone in it – Amber Lights by MAC. Beautiful colour that makes my blue eyes pop, especially when used with MAC’s Bronze

Best red lipstick?
MAC’s Cockney – Lovely glossy yellow-red. Makes my teeth look white and my pale skin look flawless; and the contrast is dramatic and perfect for occasions.

Best coral blush?
ANOTHER MAC choice, ehehe i’m an addict! Melba! Matte, easily buildable/blendable and would suit most skintones (although maybe not darker skins)

Mariela Avatar

Orange eyeshadow- It’s not so orange but I like the soft color look it gives. MAC’s Paradisco
BEst Red- Russian Red by MAC (it looks soo 3d 🙂
Best CoralBlush- Stila MAke Me Blush.
