Calling all NC 40-44s in Studio Fix w/ yellow undertones.....what's the best pale but bright pink on you? Please don't say Scanty, since that's been unfortunately discontinued. I looked at the MAC website and have these shortlisted (no frosts or mattes since they are too dry for me)-

Sweetie
Snob
Rozz Revival
Lovelorn
Syrup

Also, any suggestions for a good peachy lipstick? Again, here is my shortlist from looking at the swatches on MAC's website-

Mocha
Peachstock
Missy slimshine

Thanks for all the help, fellow WOC!!

I personally don't have any pale but bright pink lipsticks, I have just pale and neutral but what I do is blend it. I put Brew L/S under (its a neutral) and put a brighter pink lipgloss or lipstick on top.

As for options, I find that the Mac website's swatches aren't very accurate. I loooove Specktra's Swatch forum. Just do searches within the forum and you'll find ton's of help just to start narrowing it down.

But the best thing to do is actually go into the stores and try the colours out on your own natural lip colour because pigmentation can alter the outcome.

I know its not that much help but I've bought stuff online relying on their swatches and have been disappointed so I dont want that to happen to you

Good luck, I'll be keeping an eye out since I'm the same skintone

I love Lovelorn, but Sweetie is more wearable during the day IMO. Rozz Revival isn't really a pink, more of a softer version of Eager.

As for peaches..Peachstock is my fave peachy/nude lipstick. Missy is on my wishlist and looks great in real-life. I know they are LE but Curtsy & Charm Factor are really great coral peaches. They are quite easy to find on Ebay/Specktra sales

Snob - toooo pale so no
Sweetie - yes
Pink Nouveau - Yes, light handed
Pink Plaid - yes deffo
Lovelorn - a must have
Syrup - a must have but may be more on the purple side than pink
Fully charged pro longwear - depends on what u think of the texture
Intimate slimshine - love it!

Corals
Missy slimshine - cute
Funshine slimshine- omg lush, less orange than missy!
kinda sexy - comes out peachy on nc40+ could be encouraged with gngeroot or lure lipliner i guess
