I’ve been using various tinted balms but want something new.

I want it to look fairly natural, maybe a pinky shade. And long lasting and not greasy!

I have pale skin and dark hair and eyes. Any suggestions please?

Charlotte Tilbury pillow talk in original is a colour that suits most people.

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk?
at the other end of the budget is No7 lip crayons, I quite like them for day to day

I personally wouldn't go for pillow talk, a LOT of people say it makes them look dead! Op are you cool (pinky) or warm (beige/ yellow) toned? Whats your shade of foundation?

I THINK cool (winter)

Okay. I'm a cool winer, rosy beige skin, blushes easily, dark hair, Hazel eyes. My favourite Mac lipsticks are Girl About Town, bright pink more fushia than Barbie pink and Rebel which is a lovely pinky Berry. Clinique pop lipsticks in Poppy pop a orange toned red which cool tones can pull off. Great for summer and Plum pop which is a soft plum shade and Melon pop which is a, soft pinky peach. Clinique Even better pop lip foundation in Blush which is a MLBB pinky nude. And Nestled which is a pinky brown which I can just about get away with (not good with 90s browns).

Just for clarity my foundations are Rose beige, beige ivory, vanila. I'm always within the palest range.

I’m a jewelled winter and I buy the house of colour fuschia lipstick - it does something magical to my face. If you go to house of colour website, you can filter for winters.

Thanks all, will check these out. Don’t think I want fuschia or a very bright shade. Prefer subtle and natural looking.

Estee lauder rebellious rose. Bourjois velvet pencil rose story or amor rose.

Try bobbi brown - I would describe my colouring as similar to you and I went to the counter for advice on a 'natural' colour and came away with the crushed lip color in blondie pink which I am pleased with.
