Faye, thanks for the tip on English Rose! I'll look for it! Susanna, Proenza was such a fascinating color, no one has ever done that pink! Broke, these YSL are wonderful, let us know if you cave! Lucy, thanks! I am glad you enjoyed my photos. Anon, I plan to try the Lipstick Queens the next time I am in NYC! Food, you can order that new MAC Viva Glam online, and I think there's free shipping right now. And I also love my Proenza Pink!īarbara, I've seen Vivacious at the Estee Lauder outlet stores called Cosmetics Company Store. My other favorite pink is Lancome Pale Lip. I love Chanel English Rose too! You're right - it's a real, cool-toned pink. And when I go out at night, I probably wear pink again half the time. but you can probably get it online (strawberry net etc).ĭuring the day, I pretty much only wear pink lipstick. You should try Chanel Hydrabase lipstick in English Rose. Yay, another pink addict! Are you very fair like me? I love my berries, reds, etc, but somehow always come back to pink. I love it and would like to buy other shades. The Lipstick Queen shade mentioned I just bought last month. I always thought of old ladies wearing them. I would love to have every color you showed. Ooh, I've been eyeing that YSL Caress Pink - thanks for the comment about it! I cannot go to the mall everyday, ladies. I stoppedby MAC yesterday to pick up SugarSweet St Germaine, and they dared to show me the new Viva Glam, a great everyday pink, but they would not sell it to me. MAC bunny pink is my HG and I continue my quest for a dupe. Have you tried The Lipstick Queen's Saint Rose or Sinner Rose? Very nice pinks, very natural looking! :( I wonder if MAC has any other shades that are similar? And it's crazy that all of those Revlon Moon Drops lipsticks are still around - I remember those shade names from when I worked at the Sears cosmetics counter in high school (and that was longer ago than I like to admit. My tube is about to run out though - I've got to find a replacement soon. I'm surprised at how flattering it is - I have super pale skin, I'm not even sure what made me try it in the first place. MAC Vivacious is my all-time favorite pink. I'm on my fourth one, and thank goodness this color is part of the regular always-available MAC line. Sweetie has been one of my favorite go-to colors for many years. I've rediscovered Vivacious, a bright, shimmering blue-based pink that is a bit more wearable than the even bluer and brighter Fun N Sexy from the Fafi collection. Blodorf and me hitting the local MAC counter on launch day for every new collection that is released. MAC makes some of my favorite pinks! Granted, many of them are Limited Editions from past "collections" - Fafi, C-Shock, Naughty Nauticals - this is the kind of lippie longing that has Ms. And although photos and color renditions may appear differently on different computer monitors, I'll take a stab at showing some of my favorite pinks and roses todayĪs I was gathering up my pink and rose lippies for these photos, I discovered something that surprised me. Sometimes I think we should all walk around with Pantone swatch books in our bags! I often see a lipstick described as cool-toned on makeupalley, and when I see it in person, I think to myself that I must be pretty bad in judging color tones. But what's pink to me may not be pink to someone else. I've tried to do browns, pinky-browns and nudes, but I always go back. I know that cool-toned pinks and roses look best on me. The finish is glossy with a super creamy moist finish.Nine days out of ten, I'm reaching for a pink lippie. The lipstick is slightly textured with the shimmer but not gritty. I wanted to test out one of the new Rouge Volupté Perles to see how it felt with the shimmer etc. At $34 these are pricey! Also those familiar with the Rouge Volupté formula know they are super creamy and soft. I picked up 101 Beige Caress (a soft pinky-beige shimmer). Do note that the swatches on the YSL website are horribly off so don’t let that deter you from checking them out. I need to do a lot of tweaking in order for them to not look like concealer on my lips. As much as I love the regular YSL RVs, I find the lighter colors high maintenance. The colors are gorgeous and are easier to wear on the lips than the regular non-shimmer colors. YSL has released a collection of 6 new Rouge Volupté Perle Lipsticks ($34) and they are literally to-die-for. I’m not the biggest YSL fan but I do love their Rouge Volupté Lipsticks (see previous review here) and Golden Glosses (see review here and here).
