hello! i’m back with another installment of the makeup series. i am partial to a coral or orange toned lip these days. it reminds me of summer and weather is starting to get slightly better, so i’m all for fully introducing it to my face. same as pink shades, i don’t go for the peachy-nude-too light shades as i’m not a fan of looking like a zombie, so it’s mid-tone to brights aaaall up in here…
MAC morange: here. one of my favourite amplified lipsticks ever. it looks nice straight from the tube or patted in so it’s not as bright.MAC so chaud: here. i think this is like a deeper, matte version of morange and i love it just as much. makes an amazing statement lip.
MAC vegas volt: here. one of the first MAC lipsticks i bought and i still like wearing it. it’s a great ‘introduction’ lippy if you’re after a coral shade.
topshop oh la la: here. i love topshop lipsticks and lip crayons, they’re amazingly pigmented and long lasting for the price. oh la la looks so gorgeous on and is about as light as i’ll go for these kinda tones!
topshop hedonist: a very bold orange, but it looks beautiful on! even if you think it’s a little bright for you, go and swatch it instore, you’ll be surprised how flattering it is.
what is your favourite coral shade? any recommendations for me?
