any nude lighter than centerfold?

Post by carro » Mon Feb 07, 2011 3:02 am

Hi!

I´ve tried modern poet and loved the color. Recently ordered centerfold and was hoping it be about the same color as modern poet but it was so much darker than what I had expected. I´d prefer a tube over the liquid wands but the color was not quit right.

I have pretty light skin and my lips are light. When I use centerfold it really darkens my lips (same with maiden). If I want someting that accually lightens my lips a bit, what should I use?

Mirage is a nice nude, somewhat tan but not too much brown. Menage is another nice one, close to the color of St. Tropez but slightly less pink.

XXX is considered a nude nude, but I personally couldn't wear it without looking dead :) Some ladies wear that to lighten out their lip color and layer on other colors.

Mirage is a nice nude shade and it's in the Kisser Slicker formula so really moisturizing. I think forum member Aud posted a picture of it which got me to get it and I love it.

I'd 3rd Mirage. It's the nude I use most often (out of Centrefold, Menage, St Tropez & XXX). The coverage is around 60 - 70% for me and my lip colour shows through, so if you have light coloured lips, Mirage ought to lighten them.

I have Mirage and Centrefold...on me they looks aboslutely the same (I mean depth) - on hand and on lips, just a little bit different tones.

Thanks for all your answers. Think I´m even more confused though :lol:
Does anyone have a picture/link to a conparison of mirage and centerfold. I´d like something that is lighter than centerfold.

Thanks!

The only one of the three current colors that shows up on me is Centerfold. The other two wash out my regular lip color.Image
