It's a MLBB shade for me that I can reapply at work without looking in a mirror because it's fairly sheer.&nbsp;<br /><i></i>I also really like Glossier's Generation G in Like, when I'm feeling a cool toned, sheer but matte look. It's not terribly moisturizing though, so I don't wear it as often as the balm.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks/page/2#post-1995345 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 19:23:01 +0000 JAileen 1995345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use two lip products.

A dab of Vaseline in the middle of my lips over the color seems to work just fine for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks/page/2#post-1995210 Wed, 23 Jan 2019 03:01:24 +0000 carolibra 1995210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lipstick Queen! As a fair, cool-toned brunette with blue/green/grey eyes, I swear by rosy-berry tones. Saint Natural (cool rose) and Saint Wine (cool deep berry) are my faves, and for a YLBB look, Frog Prince. It's green (!) that adjusts to a "magical rosebud". All are super moisturizing, if not particularly long-lasting, but I don't mind re-applying. I searched for YEARS to find a product that would protect my horribly dry lips, and finally found it. Cannot recommend highly enough! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks/page/2#post-1995123 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 19:27:16 +0000 Anonymous 1995123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's so fun to read this thread! &nbsp;</p> <p>I'm on my umpteenth tube of MAC Viva Glam V. &nbsp;It's a nice neutral pink with lustrous finish that turned out to be my HEWI shade. &nbsp;(I am pale, with warm skin tones.)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks/page/2#post-1995116 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 19:10:25 +0000 Anonymous 1995116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie - which colour of the Vice lipsticks do you use?

I DO have a new favourite - and it's &nbsp;the best lipstick I've ever had : &nbsp;Bobbi Brown Crushed Liquid Lip Balm in Hippy Shake. &nbsp;Liquid lipsticks are really tricky for me - anything I've tried has been too drying and matte looking, and too dramatic for my low-contrast face &nbsp;But this, this is different . &nbsp;Soft, stays put, subtly glossy and gorgeous coverage. &nbsp;This colour is perfect too : not too warm and not too cool. &nbsp;Just right . &nbsp;Pretty $$ in Cdn dollars (I'm dying at it only being $26 on Nordstrom's site - that's what we pay for a MAC lipstick!) but worth every penny. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks/page/2#post-1995107 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 18:55:36 +0000 Isabel 1995107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great post ! Thank you nemosmom for starting it.</p> <p>I decided last year to do with my make up and nails polish what I have done with my clothes for several years : have a core capsule.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />It means for me, that I have 1 Spring/Summer neutral lipstick and 1 neutral Fall/Winter.</p> <p>My warm weather one is Kate Moss #104. Similar to MAC's Twig.<br />For cold weather it's MAC's Del Rio. I find it a tad drying so I wear it with lip balm.&nbsp; I also really like Revlon's Rum Raisin which is much more moisturizing.&nbsp;</p> <p>I always have a red for more special occasions too but it's not part of my core. That one is L'Oreal Eva's red.&nbsp; In the summer I add an orangey color because I love that with blues and greens. That is Milani Orangina&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks/page/2#post-1995068 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 16:50:38 +0000 shiny 1995068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for starting this thread as I am in the market for new lipstick. Since I stopped dying my hair, the old standbys seem off. I have been wanting a nude lipstick and have tried sooooo many... and they all just look awful on me! Make me look dead.</p> <p>I was over on the NYX web site this weekend-- they have this tool where you can upload your photo and try on the lippies virtually. So many nudes just looked like chalk on me, or washed me out.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>I would like a "my lips but better" lipstick but I guess I still have a lot of pigment in my lips or something? In the past I've done the best with drugstore brands that are in the mauve family, but aren't too light.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks/page/2#post-1994991 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 09:45:05 +0000 Sisi 1994991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favourite lipsticks have always been Chanel and Dior. Pretty colours, soft texture and ... nice smell! I alternate them with cheaper brands. Recently I have been using Dior Lipglow in Berry and I am very happy with it. It's a coloured lip balm and feels very pleasant on dry lips. It is finishing and I am thinking of buying it again.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks/page/2#post-1994951 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 05:10:30 +0000 gardenchick 1994951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MAC Cosmetics Amorous:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.maccosmetics.com/product/13854/52597/products/makeup/lips/lipstick/satin-lipstick#/shade/Amorous">https://www.maccosmetics.com/p.....ick#/shade</a></p> <p>I like MAC lipsticks --they have a lot of interesting shades. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks/page/2#post-1994845 Tue, 22 Jan 2019 00:08:27 +0000 Anonymous 1994845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a good lipstick discussion and am making lots of notes &nbsp;I don't have a current favourite - struggling with dry lips and pronounced lines above my mouth and not feeling great in anything right now.

My favorite color is now discontinued - Madam Mina from Ilia Beauty. It is a mauve nude color.<br />I replaced it with Clove + Hallow Desert Rose (less mauve, more rosy nude) and Clove + Hallow Sugar Plum (berry mauve). I don't mix colors but wear only one at a time.<br />My other favorite right now is Hush + Dotti Posy (a deep plum color).<br />So I currently have about 5 lipstick colors (those above and a red from Youngblood lipsticks - but I find the matte red too dry).<br />I like using clean brands (natural ingredients) because I sometimes eat my lipstick (not from the tube though). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks#post-1994232 Sun, 20 Jan 2019 14:41:09 +0000 Anonymous 1994232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All Natural Face "sweet wine" and Just Pure Minerals "Samba" (warm red)-both Etsy shops. They look bold in the tube but dont go on heavy and are pretty low contrast mlbb on me.

I am not a bold/bright lip person (it looks all wrong on me), but I like some definition and a bit of color. This YLBB stays put well, is not drying, and I can wear it alone or layer a lipstick over it. For years I have been a fan of MAC Sophisto for a slightly bolder (for me) color, and My current favorite neutral everyday lipstick is Laura Mercier in Lychee Parfait.</p> <p><a href="https://www.ulta.com/your-lips-but-better-waterproof-lip-liner-stain?productId=xlsImpprod5770251&#038;sku=2264046&#038;cmpid=PS_Non!google!Product_Listing_Ads&#038;cagpspn=pla&#038;CATCI=pla-195114948750&#038;CAAGID=23551040550&#038;CAWELAID=330000200000027825&#038;catargetid=330000200000764279&#038;cadevice=m&#038;gclid=EAIaIQobChMI943unMj83wIVCY7ICh2iGgtgEAQYASABEgI5-fD_BwE" rel="nofollow">https://www.ulta.com/your-lips.....gI5-fD_BwE</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks#post-1994205 Sun, 20 Jan 2019 13:44:07 +0000 RobinF 1994205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never been a lipstick person but as I’ve gotten older it seems my natural lip color has faded a little bit so I have been trying to find one that I can apply and forget about. I like the Lipsense liquid lip colors, they really do last for 8 -10 hours. But it’s a pain having to order them and wait and I think they’re pricey. Recently I got a Revlon 16 hour Colorstay in Bare Maximum and so far I like it. It’s a very subtle “me but better” color. And doesn’t dry my lips. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks#post-1994202 Sun, 20 Jan 2019 13:27:53 +0000 Style Fan 1994202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>La Ped, I am thinking of trying Kosas lipstick too.&nbsp; I am not sure which colour would work for me.&nbsp; I have only seen it on dark haired people.&nbsp; The colours are gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks#post-1994189 Sun, 20 Jan 2019 12:07:57 +0000 Sonce 1994189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lipstick is so personal! I'm guilty of buying new ones way too frequently and end up with several versions of the same color. This habit has taught me a few things though: (1) it is worth it to me to use "premium" rather than "drugstore" brands because the latter always have scent/taste and I can't stand it; (2) my natural lip color is pale pinky-purple and thus makes any lipstick I put on look more pink than it looks in the tube, and (3) also because of my natural lip color, anything peach, orange, or coral looks "off" on me.<br /> So my current faves are:<br /> Butter London sheer wisdom in nutmeg, good on its own or to put over other colors<br /> Clinique almost lipstick, good old black cherry is more or less mlbb for me<br /> Clinique sangria pop, this is my dramatic shade<br /> Ulta brand lipstick in sugar&amp;spice is a good everyday mauve and doesn't have scent/taste in spite of low price point</p> <p>I just purchased a new one that's promising: Becca lipstick in mocha. On me it's sort of rosy bronze. Seems to be a nice creamy moisturizing formula. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks#post-1994186 Sun, 20 Jan 2019 12:01:00 +0000 jussie 1994186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy: for some reason, it doesn’t seem drying like the long wear ones used to be.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks#post-1994178 Sun, 20 Jan 2019 10:48:27 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1994178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Clinique Raspberry Glace.

It is similar to an the old Chanel framboise glacée that was discontinued. I got the plain sheer color and now it is discontinued but they sell it with the buit-in lip moisturizer which is a little more expensive. Maybe it is just the store (LT) or the season but today they had very few colors at the Clinique counter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks#post-1994152 Sun, 20 Jan 2019 04:57:25 +0000 jussie 1994152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like hot pink, frosty pastel pink, plum, and occasionally coral.<br /> I have never tried a bright true red, but would like to.<br /> Revlon has two types of long wear lipstick, one is 24 hour and the other is more like a 12 hour. They are both fabulous, the 24 hour is very hardy but doesn’t have as large a range of colours as the 12 hour one. Also the 24 hour is high gloss and the 12 hour is matte.<br /> I really recommend both of these. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/favorite-lipsticks#post-1994150 Sun, 20 Jan 2019 04:41:48 +0000 taylor 1994150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Brooklyn , I will check out those two.
