Your eyes are beautiful and should be the focus of your face. :o)</p> <p>ETA: @ Dana Lynn: *Yes*!! Amy Ryan! I was trying to think who she reminds me of! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-302170 Tue, 22 Feb 2011 19:47:44 +0000 AJ 302170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My first casted vote with the new poll feature! I voted yay, but now I just read the comments about playing up your eyes. Have fun experimenting with each one and we can vote on the results. : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-302167 Tue, 22 Feb 2011 19:42:27 +0000 RoseandJoan 302167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, there are two schools of thought emerging and a great reply from Greg's friend Morgan! I obviously need to play in my make-up bag some more. Thank you for the input ladies (and gent).</p> <p>p.s. isn't voting great fun? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-302127 Tue, 22 Feb 2011 18:52:10 +0000 Scarlet 302127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think a slightly brighter color sounds like a good idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-302027 Tue, 22 Feb 2011 16:26:29 +0000 Morgan B 302027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I very much agree with the last two posters (@DanaLynn &amp; @Bookarella) -- make your eyes pop a little more. You can always revisit the lipstick color afterwards. Or of course if you wear glasses, the right frames could complement your hair color in interesting ways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301595 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:43:26 +0000 Bookarella 301595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like DanaLynn's idea of playing up your eyes more. You have such a beautiful eye color! Your lips look nice and natural to me, and with your fair coloring I don't think you want them to look too harsh. Just my little opinion! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301581 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:13:37 +0000 DanaLynn 301581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That photo of you reminds me so much of the actress Amy Ryan. I read something- it might have been on YLF even- you should find your celebrity doppleganger and try a lot of what they do. Let their celebrity stylist take all the risks and figure out what is going to work. Amy tends to wear a medium shade in the berry family. </p> <p>I don't like lipstick for everyday but I love burts bees. They have some color sticks that I adore. They have one in Fig. On the packaging it reads a little brown and dark. I never would have bought it. It came in a set though and I tried it. It is a great berry shade. and it feels like their other chapsticks. </p> <p>I think another option is playing up your eyes with the current shade of lipstick you have on. If you threw on some eyeliner, mascara and neutral shadow your blue eyes would really pop and your lips would ride backseat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301573 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:05:08 +0000 firefly 301573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes,just a touch. But I also just wanted to vote on something </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301523 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 19:41:37 +0000 RoseandJoan 301523@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Alicat, I've yet to hit a MAC counter this may be the perfect opportunity. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301521 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 19:38:57 +0000 Anonymous 301521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Something like MAC Viva Glam Cyndi or MAC Lustering might be fun to try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301499 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 19:12:34 +0000 RoseandJoan 301499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh it's interesting to see the yes/no votes in action. I think I will try this product in sunset pink and see how it goes. Thank you ladies for confirming my suspision<br /> <a href="http://www.asos.com/Yes-To-Carrots/Yes-To-Carrots-C-Me-Blush-Organic-Lip-Tint/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=1224632&#038;cid=5020&#038;Rf900=1511&#038;sh=0&#038;pge=1&#038;pgesize=20&#038;sort=-1&#038;clr=CottonCandy" rel="nofollow">http://www.asos.com/Yes-To-Car.....ottonCandy</a><br /> For those who think I should stay with my current lipstick, I value your opinion and will continue to wear the shade on occasion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301485 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 18:49:16 +0000 MsMary 301485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like a pale lip, so I voted "nay." I think you look great as-is! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301427 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 17:16:36 +0000 MNsara 301427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just a bit more color. I'm not sure what qualifies as sorbet, but I'd try a cool pinkish shade - is that rose-colored??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301381 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 16:29:26 +0000 Mo 301381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not too much, but yes, a little more contrast would be a nice look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301375 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 16:23:03 +0000 Aunty 301375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Give it a try, should be fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301372 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 16:22:15 +0000 Steph 301372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have always preferred lips that look natural, so I like your current color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301367 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 16:13:49 +0000 HeleenH 301367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am the 'nay' voter. I like the way you look with this lipstick, but of course you could alternate with a bit more colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301355 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 15:48:46 +0000 chewyspaghetti 301355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just a touch<br /> (Thanks for letting us try out this feature!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301338 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 15:19:19 +0000 Laura 301338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wonder if you need to offset the warmth of your hair with a shade that's cooler? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301313 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 14:39:18 +0000 Debbie 301313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just a shade brighter. Something I'm still working on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301302 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 13:58:40 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 301302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay. But to be honest just wanted to vote on something. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301294 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 13:44:36 +0000 Barbara 301294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Angie - just a touch of a pinkish colored lipcolor, perhaps with a little shimmer would look wonderful with your gorgeous hair. Don't forget to rethink your blush as well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301291 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 13:40:35 +0000 Angie 301291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just a dash. Think of the richness of a sorbet colour on your lips, and perhaps in your tummy too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-to-brighten-my-lipstick#post-301286 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 13:25:24 +0000 RoseandJoan 301286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I couldn't wait to test the new feature :-)</p> <p>Do you think I need a brighter lipstick given my change in hair colour?</p> <p>Thank you </p>
