Berries! I always tell myself that I won’t gravitate towards those shades with a new product launch but every time, those are the ones that grab my eye. Something that blends red, purple and pink just draws me in.

Admittedly, lip shades are the probably the one product that range that I have the least trouble finding things. It’s usually face products that trouble me. 😛

I think warm-toned pinks are easy to find if you’re going for something bold or dark. I agree that it’s far more difficult if you’re going for something MLBB or subtle. Those tend to lean cool or neutral.

Ohhh! Me too! But unfortunately I don’t have many. Would LOVE to hear your recommendations/favorites! 🙂 (Any good metallic or shimmery ones?)

One of the Wet n’ Wild Fergie Lipsticks (Fuschianista?) is a fuschia with blue shimmer and it’s amazing! Makes your teeth look super white.

Definitely coral! I’ve yet to buy a coral lip color that I didn’t love at first application, and it’s the color I reach for when I want a make up look that pops against my dark skin without being too much!

all of them, lol.

Seriously, it’s easier to say what I don’t gravitate toward: Oranges or orange-corals, neon colors, bright reds (although I own a few), and really pale colors or nudes. Everything else, I’ll buy and have bought. I love pinks, everything from lighter sheer pinks to dark pinks, I really like pink-browns, I love berries, I like corals if they’re more pink or red than orange, I like plums. I suppose I go for berries and pink-browns most, but I’ll buy almost anything if I think it’ll look good on me.

Plums and matte reds. frankly I love all lip colors so my collection i vast (100+ lipsticks). I don’t really like lipglossses though, my hair allways get cought in it, so my real lip color weakness is everything lipstick.

Laura Avatar

Matte/satin mid to bright pinks and coral reds. Pretty much my whole lipstick collection is these types of colours. Guerlain Georgia and MAC viva Glam Cyndi are my favourites.

Sunny Avatar

Coral, especially coral pinks. My undertone has the tendency of pulling ALL the orange in a shade out, so many corals look much more orange on me. When I find one that doesn’t pull too orange, I get all starry-eyed 🙂 That and blue-based reds, because my undertone has a way of making reds look warmer and less “bright.”

Erin Avatar

my weakness are darker fuschia colors that are still bright, and purple pinks. mac syrup is a perfect ideal lip color for me, a neutral pink that looks like it is my natural lip color.

Veronic Avatar

Reds! Especially with a semi-matte texture. The bulk of my lipstick collection is shades of red or burgundies. 🙂 I could wear them everyday if I wasn’t so often short on time.

I also love mauve-y, grey-toned pinks. I own few pinks, but they’re almost all within this shade line. I find pretty most others pull too warm on me.

I love MLBB colors. But…

I’m 34 years old, and I recently came to the realization that I’ve only ever owned nudes, and nearly nude berry colors. Oh, and years ago I had one stinky smelling deep blue-red Chanel lipstick. Sad sad. I resolve to branch out. I’ll start with some Revlon Lip Butters because they’re cheap, and I’ll expand from there!

All reds–especially neutral and blue-reds (fav.: Zivoli by Bite Beauty, Scarlet by Bobbi Brown….) And corals! I prefer corals that have enough orange or red in them to not look Nicki Minaj pink against my cafe-au-lait complexion (favorites: Soft Coral by Bobbi Brown, MAC Hibiscus)

Lee Avatar

Blue based dark hot pinks and fuchsias; I think I buy every single one MAC puts out. I also love pinky lavenders. Blue based lipsticks just look best on me; I keep trying yellow based pinks and pinky corals but they pull really orange on me.

Xero Avatar

Same as Christine, pinky-corals with fine gold shimmer, and corals in general! Also, super bright coral-reds, of which I have entirely too many of.

Jenny del Castillo Avatar

Reds, no doubt lol I have lots and lots os reds in my collection: blue based reds, strawberry reds, orange reds, pinky reds… reds everywhere! But the one I adore most is MAC Ruby Woo 🙂

VickyM Avatar

For me it´s all about pink 😀 , I have many different shades of pink lip colors aswell as different finishes on them. Most of my lipsticks are pink with few exceptions, I adore this color and feel I look my best while wearing it, I´m always trying new pink shades and still searching for the perfect pink. To me it is the most romantic, feminine, gorgeous and elegant color in the world 🙂 .

Brenda Avatar

soft brownish pinks or nudes I guess. I dislike the amount of pink in my lips and I love the toned down but polished look of MAC Patisserie and Nars Cruisin. (also love Rimmel Naked, a long discontinued line) I can’t stop myself from thinking everytime I see another lippie in that shade that I want it!

Pamela Avatar

Ugh! Those confounded corals get me every time! Red-ish corals, orange-y corals, pink-y corals, corals both with shimmer and without, sheer corals, amplified corals, matte corals…I can’t stop the compulsion!

Jackie Avatar

Without a doubt, brights…Vibrant oranges, deep corals, reddish-orange, pinky-reds…Lately, I’ve been exploring pinky-plum shades and liking those a lot too!

adele Avatar

Rusty oranges, berries, and dark reds. I’d like to venture into lighter colours for spring (pinks, corals) but it’s hard for me to find shades that work with my super pale skin.

Wwendalynne Avatar

What am I not a sucker for? Anything that doesn’t pull orange or brown on me. Blech..washout city. Biggest weaknesses are anything rose and any weird grayed out colours.. not sure how to describe them exactly. OCC’s prix is a really good example.

Tam Avatar

ALL lip color is my weakness! I love them all, and it doesn’t matter what finish. I guess that’s why I have a large glass candy jar full of lipstick that I’m pretty sure I won’t use up in my lifetime.

-Orange. I need another like I need another hole in my head. Both are inevitable. Sounds Like Noise will probably find its way into my makeup.
-Blue. Dark blue is like a 21st century take on a classic vampy red lip.
-Magic colors. I love the idea that a blue bullet can turnninto the most flattering pink.
-Colors that match my hair. Right now, that means a very light salmon or creamsicle color.
