Best everyday "my lips but better' lipstick

Just that really! I'd like to treat myself to a nice lipstick that I can wear everyday. Not too bright/too nude (worried that my teeth might look yellow!), sort of my lips but better. I'm darkish blonde, pale but pink undertones, green eyes. Sorry don't know if cool/warm, I find that v confusing. Don't like gloss at all.

Maybe a mac one as they seem to have the widest range of shades?

Thanks :)

I've bought loreal "Julienne's nude" with my boots points to tide me over until payday. Lovely colour but hate the smell!

Benetint is great for this. Really moisturising and makes your lips look fab. Just don't put too much on.

I have used chubby sticks but found they didn't last long enough given the cost. At the moment I am using the Rimmel version which is about 6 quid. It's brilliant. It looks natural but has a lot more staying power. Not sure what the shade is called though but it's a close match to bountiful blush. I also recommend Rimmel lipgloss in Snog, if you fancy a shiny look one day.

Just returned from Tesco with three natural lipsticks.

Loreal Eva. Little bit peachy and a slight shimmer but nice with a tan.

Natio Eden, might be the perfect nude. Lovely lipstick.

Sleek Liquer. Very nice natural colour.

The loreal 'name' ones all look really good. I wanted the Cheryl/JLo one but it was sold out everywhere.

Will check out the other two thanks.

I agree about the Poppy King No 7 ones, but I don't think they are available in the UK any more, Ebay might be a possibility. I've been using Intrigue for a couple of years, it is the most perfect natural lipstick I've ever had, slightly glossy but sheer (not as glossy or slippery as the Revlon Lip butters).
