These colors are long-wearing, somewhat hydrating and super shiny. These colors are not your average shiny reds and pinks. Each is a complex twist on an old favorite.
I picked up Coral Glow, which is so bright I was afraid to wear it in public. When I did, strangers immediately started complimenting my lip color. I wore it to work one Friday and the head of account services stopped a 10-person meeting to talk about how much he loved my lip color. It's definitely brighter than I am use to and wasn't sure about it with my hair, but I think it works.
Coral Glow is the exact super bright pop of color if you are looking to emulate the 1950s lip trend. Pair it with a black liquid liner and an almost naked eye (with lots of mascara) and voila! In the photos, I had been wearing this color for 45 minutes.
It looks as if I just applied it! In reality, this color wore for about 2 hours without needing a touch up to look picture-perfect fresh. Three and a half hours later, I still have some on my lips, but the punch of color is gone. Not too bad for such a vibrant, shiny color!
I am certain I will have to head back to pick up the Sweet Beige and Gorgeous Peach colors.
If you've tried these, let me know what you think!
I bought this. Sephora does not test on animals, according to their blog.

I LOVE this look on you! For some reason, bright corals just make your whole look pop!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! It is definitely bright! I like it, but only on days I am feeling really confident!
ReplyDeleteI quite like this color- from what I can tell on my computer screen you have auburn hair. My coloring is light and I have strawberryish to auburn hair in the winter. This color might look good on me too! I just like how shiny it is... not necessarily glittery.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about feeling conspicuous, I'm afraid of red lips for the same reason. This shade is fabulous on you--it brightens your whole face!!
ReplyDeleteCoral isn't an easy colour to wear, and this suits your skin tone perfectly. The picture of you really caught my attention - very pretty!
