Colors similar to Truly?

[kinjali22]

I absolutely love Truly. It gives my face some much needed color and does not make me look washed out. At the same time it is not bold which I love (Verve was too bold for me). What colors would you recommend that are similar to it? For reference, I am about 1-8 olive and have mauve lips. I can't do dark or bold colors. TIA!

Have you tried Bitten, Foreplay, Mirabelle? Also, Razzle Dazzle is close, but a cooler, more mauve shade of pink.

Bitten is slightly redder, and and the pink in Mirabelle is not as intense. Then Foreplay leans even a tad more peachy than Mirabelle.

Thanks Jen I've tried Bitten but it was on the cool side for me. I don't think I've tried Mirabelle yet but I have tried Foreplay and it was a tad to peach one me. I don't do peach colors well either

Sounds like the new Peachy Keen may be perfect for what you're looking for?

Yea, I'll be giving peachy keen a try Lola is calling my name too... it looks like it would work. Is this color on the warmer side? Decisions decisions...

I'm neutral toned and can wear both cool and warm, so I'm not really paying attention, hehe. But, peachy keen has a reddish orange color to it, very sheer (just got it today, love it, lights up my face). Compared to truly, it's more sheer, and come to think of it, a bit warmer and definitely not as bright.

Lola is a burgundy strawberry red color, so it definitely has warm tones. I think wine is such a universal color though, would work on any skin tone.

Hope that helps!

Thank you for those descriptions egerandi! Ok, I am definitely getting Peachy Keen. I love colors that brighten up my face. For some reason Truly wasn't that bright on me.. and that is probably because my lips are dark. Hmmm... I think I'll pass on Lola right now... I tend to like brighter sheer colors. The deeper colors kind of wash me out for some reason. Thank u! I also added Genuine into my cart

Btw, what do you think about Fashionista? It looks like a brighter nude pink with no brown in it. Is that close description ?

Well, on my lips is more like a muted mauve: not pink and not brown, but not bright either.
I love it for the coverage it gives, and if I could only keep (hahaha, if that's even possible) one mauve/wine/plum color, that would be it.

Thanks egerandi! I ordered both Fashionista and Peachy Keen. I hope they both work out!
