What color lipstick/gloss are you still searching for?

What color lipstick/gloss are you still searching for?? Maybe someone can help you track it down!

Well, I’m always on the hunt for the perfect coral… I think I’ve found it in Guerlain’s Gems lipstick, but it’s LE, so would love to find a permanent shade, too!

Still looking for the perfect lilac/violet lipstick/lipgloss. Looks can be deceiving because I’ve tried products that looked lilac but when I put it on, it wasnt what it appeared to look in the tube. 🙁

I’m still looking for a Revlon Shiny Sheer in Sheer Plumdrop. It was my holy grail in plum shades. Other than that I’m looking for a rich chocolate lipstick that isnt too goth with probably some gold sparkles.

Ooh Christine me too me too!!!  I’m forever searching for a perfect coral lippie/gloss since all my faves have been discontinued… please help me!!

I’m about NC30 with some yellow undertones.  I love the perfect picture of peach and pink with some gold shimmer would be nice…I love MAC Blow Dry and Lancome Cerise…any other suggestions?

Lancome do an amazing coral lipstick. It’s part of the Le Rouge Absolu range and is called ‘Rouge Rayonnant’, no. 47. It’s a really pretty coral lipstick and the texture on the lips is amazing – really moisturising, creamy and very pigmented.

Maybelline also do a great coral lipstick in the Watershine Diamonds lipstick range, if you are looking for something with a bit more sparkle in the coral and drug store priced. It’s called ‘Coral Diamonds’ and is a really pretty coral with shimmer. Hope that helps.

Mine is an opaque lipstick that has a light glossy finish in a light coral shade.

My favorite combination is VS Scrumptious lipstick with Timothy Pocket Rocket gloss on top. If I could find a lipstick that does that, Im set.

How about Urban Decay’s Midnight Cowboy? I recently got it inside the holiday giftset and I love it! It’s a light, nude color with just the right amount of shimmer and it looks really good with the Timothy Pocket Rocket gloss layered over it!

I am looking for a non-shimmery deep plum lipstick or gloss that doesn’t turn fuschia after 5 minutes.
P.S. a great coral gloss is Dior Creme de Gloss in Coral Elixir

I want the Nars liptstick in Belle de jour (the lightest color they have) but I don’t know if it would look good on me…I have very fair skin, brown eyes and very light brown hair…or do you know of any other good nude lipstick on the beige side (so not pink nude) that would be nice for me?

I am always looking for the perfect hot or bright pink. I really like Illasmasqua’s Avenge lipstick, but unfortunately, it is only in the UK and shipping to North America is too expensive.

I’m looking for a pink lipstick that won’t look too scary against my NC55-ish skin. I’m going for that pink/fuschia Rhianna-esque look, but can’t find the right shade for me!

I think you should try Revlon colorstay lipstick in creamy coral, its my perfect coral lipstick.
As for my i am trying to find the perfect baby pink for me.

Kristin Small Avatar

I still cannot find that perfect red for me. I’ve been tempted by some of those in the series….but I just don’t want to spend money and be disappointed again. I have dark features, but fair skin, and I look best in cool colors.

I am always hunting for a perfect plum, but I solved my “nude” search by using a Covergirl creamy concealer just a bit darker than my natural skin tone.

perfect baby pink (no sparkle.. so baby sparks won’t work) lip gloss!!!! it can’t be a lipglass because i hate those with a firey passion… but anyway, I have pigmented lips, so if it is too light, i WILL look like a ghost…. email me at juliacheer24@gmail.com

I’m still looking for my perfect nude! I’ve tried Creme D’Nude (makes me look like death), Peachstock (a peachier death look), High Tea (nice, but not I want something more potent than a Lustre), and Patisserie (it was like a really expensive lip balm that did crap for my lips–identical to my current lip color). Ugh! My quest continues…

Actually I can’t remember the name of the lipstick´, but it’s an amplified MAC lipstick that is discontinued, and it was like a mix of ‘Chatterbox’ and ‘Vegas Volt’…..anyone who knows the name…?

I’m still looking for the perfect rose pink lipstick. I love pink lipstick but most of the pinks I have found are either peach-pink, mauve-pink, fuschia-pink, pale pink – it’s really had to find a rosey, petal pink lipstick in a medium colour that isn’t really pale but not dark. Any suggestions?

Miriam Avatar

I’ve got a big question for all of you (who are reading this)… is tropical/intense/fluorescent/marker-style pink lipstick too much? With pale skin and no eye makeup, just the lipstick on flawless skin…
