pink lips advice

[nature]

Hello!

My lips are quite pigmented and look like Maiden in the tube. Bloom turns this shade on me, but warms up to this shade on some days. The latter is what I prefer but I have not figured out how to achieve this. Is it possible to get my lips a lighter pink shade with one of the following lippies? I would prefer to achieve this look using only 1 lippie instead of layering with 2 because lippies generally do not last very long on my lips and I frequently reapply on the go without a mirror.

These are currently on my Wish List:
Bisou
Damsel
Darling
Daydream
Soft

I also intend to try the Chloe lipstain and hope it works for me. A light application of Dixie turns very red on me after a few minutes and I end up looking quite dramatic.

At some point I just got bored with red or coral lips and looked really weird in plum colours. I would like my lips to end up looking like Beguile, Daydream, Innocent, or Zinnia on the paper swatches shown on the website. Hope all this makes sense. Looking forward to your advice.

I think you should try Soft first...Damsel next.

Cross Darling off your list altogether if you want pink....it will come out a peachy shimmer with a hint of brown.

Daydream might work, but I think Bisou will be too peachy, but much less brown than Darling.

Thank you, Jen! Just moved Damsel and Soft into the cart.

So it sounds like your lips tend to make colors look more cool toned? Since Bloom is not that cool of a shade but turns cool on you, that's why I am thinking that.
So I wonder if you need to stick to warmer tones, more peachy pinks, have you tried any, how do they come out on you?
Bloom is one of the lightest pinks SN sells, there are a few pinks that are lighter like Confession and Sweet Pea. But Confession may turn too cool toned on you. Twirl is like a peachy version of Sweet Pea. Not sure how light of a lippie you want to, but wanted to mention those since you said you want a lighter pink than Bloom.
I think maybe another factor to look into is how opaque a color is. The natural color of your lips will change how a color look on you especially if it is sheer. You mentioned you liked the look of Beguile, and that one is actually nice and opaque, so it may come out that color on your lips. But it is significantly darker than Bloom. I would consider Bloom a light nude-pink, and Beguile a deep rose pink.

Thanks for your input, Oxana. I can't go with those formulas you mentioned. I need something that fits snugly in my jeans pocket without melting and the KCs will probably highlight my very unevenly pigmented lips (based on earlier reviews from others).
