Lipstick League Question of the Week:
What’s the one shade you wish you could pull off, but can’t?
G's Answer: If you've been reading my blog for any length of time, then you know what I'm going to say. I just can't make most purples work for me, despite how hard I tried. Oh, and I can't make opaque, light pink lip colors work for me either.

What shade can you not pull off (but wish you could)?
For me, I can't pull off light blue (think Barbie) and green. My skin is yellow toned so these colors make me look dull and sick.
ReplyDeleteIt took me about 25 years of looking to find a red lipstick that stayed red on me and didn't turn babboon butt pink. I finally found one, its an ULTA shade, so that holy grail is found.
ReplyDeleteI doubt I'll ever be able to pull of yellow nail polish; I bought a WnW yellow that is very creamy pale and I'm hoping I can make it work because I want to konad on it.
I've always wanted to do a really red lip. I look absolutely ridiculous with red lipstick on though. :(
ReplyDeleteIn answer to the Q at the end... I wish I could pull off a super dark smokey eye.-- but my eyes are on the small side and I have deep undereye hollows, so dark smokiness makes me look exhausted instead of dramatic. =P
ReplyDeletei wish i could wear red lipstick its so classic but i cant pull it off
ReplyDeleteI think I am the only blue eyed blonde that cannot wear pink!!! I love it and while I do wear pink blush, there isnt a lipstick, gloss or even clothes that really work on me! HELP!!!! LOL!!!
