Winter here - I need new makeup

I want a bright blue-based pink lipstick and some complementary blush. For play, not for work or anything serious.

Suggestions, anyone?

Plumful by Mac is a beautiful lipstick perfect for cool toned colouring.

Not sure about blusher, I screwed up a bit on my last purchase so I am interested in what others suggest.

Nars Schiap lipstick is gorgeos. Nars Desire blush has similar tones but I'm not sure if I'd wear them together. Schiap is so bright that you don't need much more makeup with it.

Nars Yu lip pencil is a similar shade but a bit more moisturising.

Here are some dupes in case that's helpful!

Revlon chubby pencil in Lovesick is good too, and cheaper than Nars!

(Bright pinks are my favourite)

I'm in my late 30s. My friend just said we shouldn't wear brights in our age. But brights are the only things that suit me.

Yeah I'm 51. Your friend knows nothing.

Your friend needs to retire with her slippers and pipe! She is talking absolute BS! I'm 38 and my make up collection is the brightest and most beautiful it's ever been! Mac Girl About Town lipstick is a blue based fuchsia pink, Mac Pink Swoon blush is a blue based pink and is the only blusher that I've used until I've hit the pan! I also bought a Mac set which had the Retro mat lipstick in Steady Going and the Fuji blusher in, so those two defiantly complement each other.

This is my favorite blue based pink, it's so bright and flirty. I just love it. I wear it with Mac Fuji blusher. The lipstick is Marc Jacobs Clara.

I'm a Winter and wear a stick blusher from No7 in Rose Blossom. Chanel used to do a very bright pink one too but it might have been discontinued as I can't find it on their site.

Lipsticks I like include Dior Lip tattoo shade 761, Clinique Chubby Stick in Pudgy Peony and Estee Lauder Dominant,
