Could anyone suggest some good peach/coral or pink lipsticks for an nc50 skin tone I mostly wear Mac lipsticks but I'm open to other brands as well! Thanks in advance!:encore:
Lipstick for NC50??
- Thread starter lanagg1908
- Start date
Welcome! I am NC50-ish and I LOVE coral. Some suggestions: MAC La Vie En rouge (I hear this is still available in some places), orangey coral MAC Toxic Tale (repromoted at least once, may still be available) MAC Coral Bliss (perm, I think) - is a less in-your-face coral than the previous two MAC Crosswires (described as pinky orange, but comes off coral on me) Kat Von D Les Ecole Des Femmes (sp?) - more pinky coral - LOVE Black Radiance Hibiscus (around $3 at Rite-Aid) - bright and intense These are just off the top of my head - if I come up with more I will post here. Meanwhile, there are several lipstick threads in the Beauty of Color section - you might get some ideas in those threads.

All the ones mentioned in the above post are beautiful & I just brought Toxic Tale (wear with MAC Redd liner) & La Vie En Rouge. Viva Glam Miley with Redd or More to love liner. MAC See Sheer with MAC lasting Sensation liner is very pretty, Bobbi Brown Guava & Sweet Nectar lipsticks are also pretty corals.
OMG, I totally did not read all of your OP. Pink too? Well, then: MAC No Faux Pas MAC Flat Out Fabulous MAC All Fired Up MAC Candy Yum Yum MAC Show Orchid MAC Impassioned OCC Anime Stila Liquid Lipstick in Fiore Kat Von D Lollipop Kat Von D Backstage Bambi (soo pretty with NYX Purple Rain lip pencil) Sephora Mulberry Luster (deeper, berry pink) Sephora Strawberry Red (Reddish-pink, but the pink is evident) WAIT: I have NO IDEA how I neglected MAC Vegas Volt in the coral list. And WnW Coral-ine

If you haven't tried colourpop, you have to! Their lipsticks are only $5 and they have matching lip pencils for each lipstick.

You are very welcome!
No it is definitely more coral on me .. it does look pinkish/redish in the tube tho
Welcome! I am NC50 and wear Viva Glam Riri 2 and really like it. It is an interesting, complex shade of frosty brown. Not flat and boring. It also looks good paired with a few dark lipliners. And doesn't it have the cool red packaging too?
I love VG Riri 2! And the lipglass is kind of a must too. I only wear it with the lipglass because it's a bit too metallic for my taste without it.Does anyone know if MAC Viva Glam Rihanna 2 looks good on someone who wears NC 50? Or, better question, what it would look like?

Hi,
I am NC 50 & wore Viva Glam Rhianna #2 the lipstick & the gloss. I wore it with Soar, Dervish or Absolutely It. At the time I went through a brown phase, it was short lived, some days I thought this lipstick looked a bit gray.
I've also heard that ColourPop's Wet liner works really well with this. It's a metallic finish as well.
