If you have light, warm colouring, what lipstick do you wear?

My beloved MAC Nippon lipstick has been discontinued and I'm devastated, as I cant find a suitable replacement.

As I live in the middle of nowhere, I cant simply pop into town to find a replacement.

I placed an order last week with Trinny London and received six lip stains/glosses/lipsticks but all of them are a variation on muted rose pink/mauve. I look dead in rose pink. I need something warm and peachy but natural, like my lips but better.

Suggestions gratefully received.

I’m very pale but with a warm undertone, was diagnosed Blue Spring when I had my colours done years ago. I tend to stick to something coral, not too bright as that can overwhelm me.I like some of the Max Factor (Pink Brandy, Bewitching Coral, or English Rose is actually a warm pink not a mauve one ) or Revlon Dewy Peach, & Mac do several but if you want something more natural & muted Boots No7 crayon thingy lipstick in Daydreamer I find works well or their lipstick in Watermelon.

Have a look at Gucci. No more orchids and they meet in Argentina might be similar to the colour you used to love.

MAC Sheer Outrage, from their Powder Kiss lipstick range, works well for me. They describe it as grapefruit pink.
If I want something a bit more powerful I like MAC Vegas Volt.

I absolutely love Vieve's Comin' In Haute matte lipstick but I just went to find a link and they've discontinued it :( Space NK are still selling it but the colour isn't well represented in their images, it's a very muted, soft peach and is perfect for my very pale but warm soft autumn colouring. I've just ordered another two, which should last me a while (tempted to buy more but I don't know how long liptstick lasts unopened). Vieve's Powersuit is also good if you want something darker.

I only wear sheer balms because of a very undefined lower lip (would need to do pencils etc and can't be bothered). I currently like nyx fat oil in "link in my bio". It's a browny coraly warmish neutral.
