Do you think that a good match for that lip color might be Black Dahlia? Any other ideas?

That looks similar to how Bobbi looks on my lips.

Re: Help find a SN match for lip color?
Hi bookishbeauty,
I don't really have an answer to your question, but maybe Nectar, or Autumn Ember?
I do have a question for you, though, if you don't mind.
I read somewhere on the forum that you have Fascinate ALG, and there has been very little buzz about it....no swatches, no reviews, and I was wondering what you thought.
I LOVE brown/tan shimmery glosses that are not too dark. I got Ceylon Spice since I was so excited that it was BROWN, but it was a total fail for me. WAAAAY too dark and dramatic.
How dark is it, and how sheer is it?
It is described on the site as *being the grown-up, more sophisticated version of Bon Bon* so I am curious. Bon Bon, on my lips, barely showed up at all.
I haven't found my HG brown at SN yet. I liked the color of Iced Mocha, but not so fond of the formula. Dancing Shoes I love, but it's too pale on it's own. I adore it over Roxie lipstain. I also love Glacier ALG over Roxie....that is my perfect brown/tan shade.
So, after reading my novella.....any thoughts?
thanks so much,
laurie

Re: Help find a SN match for lip color?
I really like Fascinate ALG. I think it's perfect for fall, with all the warm neutral clothing. I've only had a sample of Ceylon Spice, but Fascinate is definitely not as dark as that. It's a bit like a warmer and deeper Birthday Suit, I think. The coverage is very good--not sheer--and while I can see the comparison to Bon Bon in the tube, it is MUCH more opaque. I am wearing Bon Bon today, actually, and it's also very hard to see on my lips. Just gives a little something extra. Fascinate is more of a statement brown lip. Here is a pic of me wearing Fascinate. (I am also wearing SN e/s in Model and Custom.

Awesome! thanks so much. That really helps to see it on.....I love it! We have similar coloring in eyes and hair. It looks like you are pretty fair skinned also.

That picture is a little washed out as far as my skin tone goes, but I used it because it showed the right color for the lip and e/s colors...if you can see my shoulder barely, that is a more accurate skin tone.

Seconding Bobbi although I think Black Dahlia would look beautiful on you.

Thanks ladycattat. And you're welcome!
Re: Help find a SN match for lip color?
I think Eden would a very very close match. It has a bit more golden shimmer in it though.
