Pretty Please in a different formula?

Pretty Please is a fantastic colour for me, it makes my lips look natural but polished. Unfortunately, the ALG formula hurts my lips and makes them feel irritated for a long time so I cannot use it much. Is there a lip gloss similar to Pretty Please but in a different formula?

It is somewhere between Maiden and Caramel. I wonder if Caramel topped with Precious would be close.

Mmm ... that sounds interesting. Pity that Precious has carmine ...
I have always been afraid of the nudes as they usually wash me out and make me look like a corpse :S, but it seems that Caramel or Maiden might be worth a try.
Could you post a picture of Pretty Please swatched next to Maiden and Caramel? Pretty please? :)

Sorry, no swatch, but I can confirm that Maiden is definitely not 'corps-y'. Pretty Please is very close to it on my lips.
Edited to add: color-wise, that is. Maiden seems to have a bit more coverage, although it's still quite sheer and it's not shimmery at all.

I like pretty please and I personally would probably go with fizz, but all 3 (fizz, caramel, and pretty please) are pretty similar

Oh, thanks, that's really helpful!
I had Fizz some time ago but did not like it for some reason (was it too dark? too shimmery? I can't remember now) and gave it to my mum, who loves it. I definitely need to try it again.
As for Caramel and Maiden, I think I might order Caramel first (looks a bit lighter in the swatch), but will probably end up getting both of them! LOL
