please suggest a lovely coral lipstick

[honeylou42]

I dont mind paying , but would like a coral/peach shade not pinky

Lancôme L'absolu rouge shade 006 or look at Bobbi Brown. Hope you find a nice one!

MAC in Coral Bliss, or Too Faced Colour Bomb in.....[rummages in muji drawers]....Coral Pop. The latter also has a slight tingly/lip plumping effect which is handy enough.

Bobbi Brown Sandwash Peach

Ohh im looking for this too, the new clarins balms had a gorgoeus coral one, will check name and report back but it was v flattering!

Tom ford true coral. Great pigment, nice finish, not drying, lovely packaging but expensive-£37 I think

I bought No7 Waterlilly. £10. Good peachy/ coral. Get lots of comments on it! Nicely moisturising and brightening!

Second the Lancôme one. I love it

Nars Mayflower.

very pretty.

Also Niagara.
But Mayflower's prettier.

I have Bobbi Brown Valencia Orange, love it. Orange in tube but lovely coral on skin.

A topic close to my heart. I own many but firm favourite is Mac Flamingo.

I use the Lancome one too.

Thanks everybody for some lovely ideas, i would love the Tom Ford one but even i refuse to pay nearly 40 quid. I actually came across this NARS casablanca one while looking up all your replies, im not sure if anybody has this but im going in search of it this week

The thing is you just have to try them don't you? Skintone plays such a big part in how they look on different people. I hope you find your holy grail coral OP.

I love coral and have loads of lipsticks and glosses from MAC.

Coral Bliss and Style Surge (I think it is) are both nice.

Whilst we're on coral lippies.... Mel On Red Nose Bake Off's pinky coral one. Anyone hazard a guess as to what make/shade it is?

I just need to add my comment that the best thing to do is go to a big store, try one on. Go outside into natural light & take a photo of yourself (holding a scribble with the puppy name). Repeat for each lippy on. Your list & go back the next day to get the chosen one after mulling over it at home with some vino ;)

Make sure you have your other Normal, make up on. Keep us updated & good luck!

A couple more suggestions for the OP: Liz Earle's 'Melon' or By Terry's 'Guilty Nude', (eye-wateringly expensive but just beautiful). I'm MAC NC25 for reference, as I agree that skin-tone/undertone matters.

Ooh, now I need a coral lipstick!

Liz Earles Azalea is a very pretty coral type shade that suits all

Good one, Boomf: I have Azalea, too, and it's beautiful.

Isn't it? I usually gravitate towards plum shades and glosses but the Azalea is one I keep in my work pocket and know that I can reliably apply it without a mirror! It's subtle but fresh and not an old fashioned orange coral.

I shall check out Melon

I actually like a lot of LE make up with the exception of the face powder. The packaging is rather uninspiring though

Thanks again the liz earle one's look promising, and the By Terry one looks amazing. I cant wait to get down to the make up counters tomorrow
