Pinky brown nude lippie for dark skin

Post by pbryant » Fri Jul 03, 2015 9:56 pm

Hi,

I am dark skin African American (Bare Minerals Golden Deep / MAC NW48). I am looking for a pinky brown nude lippie. I'm leaning on either Strut, Canoodle, or Swoon. My top lip is dark, my bottom lip has a little pink. Attached is a pic, unflattering, but for the cause. LOL.

Please advise on which would be the better choice.

Thanks!

I don't see the pic,

But I would try Canoodle. It is kind of the middle. I fear that Strut won't have enough pink, and Swoon might be too pink......

Another vote for Canoodle! I have a dark top lip and a pink bottom lip and Canoodle is opaque enough to give full coverage. It also has enough depth to be flattering on medium to dark skin tones. I have tan olive skin and it's my HG.

I have Strut and it's too light for my skin tone. HTH!
