Looking for coral/peach and plum lippies.

[Toby]

Hi ladies!

I'm looking for a peach or coral lippie and was hoping to get some help. Of the colours that are labeled as peach or coral on the website, I currently have Mimosa and Truly. Mimosa is way, way too light on me -- it shows up as more of a sheen than an actual colour, which is pretty, but not what I'm looking for. Truly shows up as too pink.

Judging by the swatches, I think Mirabelle & Verve seem too red/pink & vibrant, especially Verve, which looks shocking. Darling seems even lighter than Mimosa in the swatch, & Ginny looks very orange. Are the swatches accurate? If so, I think I'd be most interested in Temptation, Honeysuckle, & Ingenue -- any recommendations among the three, or the others mentioned? What's the sparkliness level of these?

I'm also looking for a plummy colour. I have Fig Leaf, which is GORGEOUS -- I love it to bits, but I'd like something just a bit darker. Between Infatuation, Raisin, & Cassis, what would you all recommend? Does anyone have swatches of the three beside each other?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

On me Temptaion is a RED/Coral (slight shimmer). Ingenue is a straight peach (matte).

Cassis is the most plum on me (Infatuation is PINK). Raisin really is the color of a raisin!! I LOVE Cassis and Raisin. Both are matte w/o shimmer, great fall colors and give full coverage.

I haven't tried the others.

Mango will give you that peach effect- i lighten it with XXX, Lovelace blush makes a lovely coral lippie, and i love the gold effect of gleaming against pink lips. For plum, cassis is my favorite

In the coral/peach category I think Zinnia would fit. Mango as well. Ginny isn't all too coral on me. It goes on sheer on me so it's not too bright and bold.

Thanks for the help, all! I'm thinking Honeysuckle or Mango & Cassis.

I love Fig Leaf as well, and on my lips it's closest to Raisin. I top FL with R sometimes for an extra kick and a longer lasting effect, as R seems to stain my lips too. For some reason, Cassis, even though it's gorgeous, didn't really work for me :/

Just my 2c, maybe you can get both? And Infatuation is rather bluish dark pink, like a purple plum.

Don't tempt me! I probably will, at some point. Thanks for the help!

Mango turns into the perfect coral on me, and I have the same problem with Mimosa being more of a sheen than color. (love it though!)
Ginny lipgloss over mango really gives a pretty coral.

Thanks, Meheeeen! I think I've pretty much resolved to order Mango...
