Aria, Rare Berry or ?

[puggerfly]

Hi Ladies!

I'm new to SN and the forum, and am trying to narrow down my list for my second order!
My first purchase was Soft. I'm looking for something just like it (sheer w/ no shimmer or pearl) only slightly warmer but still neutral.
I'm drawn to Aria & Rare Berry. They sound somewhat similar (both neutral, pink, cream, depth 3, opacity 2, w/ no shimmer), but the swatches I've found all look so different from one to the next; I just can't tell!
Can anyone help compare the differences between these two?
Are there any other colors you think might fit the bill?

Thanks in advance for any and all input!

I have soft (one) and I like it but it is not a favorite. I do own three of Rare Berry. Rare Berry is warm but still nuetral. It has more pigment than soft. I really don't have another lippie like Rare Berry. I wear Light(est) Warm in foundation (from other companies).

I don't think I have Aria.

Edit to add: Rare Berry has a soft cream finish. No pearly or shimmer.

Hi puggerfly, I wear all three regularly for different purposes. I think Aria is close to what you're looking for. No shimmer, reddish pink, a bit warmer and redder than Soft, but still neutral. I think it's also a darker shade. Soft is a 'cute raspberry pink' on me while Aria seems more mature. It seems more opague than Soft on me, but that might just be because of my lip colour.

I sort of consider Rare Berry to be in a whole other league. It's the closest thing to a 'bright lip' that I'll wear because it's a bright, vibrant strawberry pink on me. It's not nearly as subtle as the other two. It's warmer than Soft and it's a beautiful colour, but I don't know if it's what you're looking for.

Have you considered Genuine? It's a sheer neutral rose pink. It looks warmer than Soft but not as dark as Aria. It does say it has a bit of shimmer, but I find that when SN describes the shimmer as 'a bit', it really is quite subtle, to the point that I didn't realise some of mine had shimmer in them until I came across the description again.

Hope this helps.

Thank you both for the insight and suggestions! Aria sounds like the leading contender, but I'll be sure to check out Genuine too!

Be well

I do not own Soft, but own several of Rare Berry, and also Aria. These two are really totally different. I adore Aria for its formula and the color and opacity. It really is a more mature color, great everyday color. Rare Berry is more red strawberry toned and sheer but gives a beautiful wash to lips.
