Best YLBB shade for me?

Post by Sophiebaby » Sun May 07, 2017 8:12 am

Hi guys, I need some help finding a good YLBB shade for me. I'm medium olive complected with yellow undertones. I have dark brown hair. I'm very Mediterranean looking. My last order, I ordered syntax, Bequile, and operative. Syntax was too light for me and washed me out and operative was too cool. Bequile is pretty on me but Im not crazy about the shimmer look on me.

Would love some recommendations. Thanks in advance!

Thank you Jen! I just added spin off to my wishlist which is getting a little long. :? :shock:

I forgot to mention that I'm not crazy about lippies that lean too brown.

I have similar coloring and my holy grail lippie is Canoodle. Operative was too cool on me to and I don't look good in lip colors that lean brown either :)

I have similar coloring but lighter. Eternal might actually be a good MLBB shade for you. It is a little darker than my natural lip shade and stands out just a little against my light to medium golden olive skin.
