Help with Purple and Vampy Lipstick Shades

[laylalovesmac]

I have two sets of B2M empties that I will be taking in, and I need to pick two from the following list! I'm NW15, but I'm wondering more about the formula. Which of these two are easiest to work with? Which do you reach for the most? TIA!

Cyber
Rebel
Hang Up
Media
Film Noir

As a Satin finish, Rebel is opaque and goes on as more of a berry than purple shade, which is pretty versatile. Hang Up could do a similar job in terms of colour, but it's darker, semi-opaque, and offers buildable coverage (colour/opacity) as a Cremesheen. HTH.

My fave outta those is Rebel as it's easier for me to work with, I'm NW25.

rebel for a megenta shade (with magenta liner), and hangup for a deep berry/purple shade (with vino, current or nightmoth liner).

I vote for Media! I'm NC-NW15, and I like the vampy look it gives.

I have Cyber, it's a dark purple. Very gothic. It is hard to wear in the summer but in the fall it is nice. Keep your eye makeup a light neutral.

Cyber is one of my absolute favorite lipsticks. I wear it alot, but then again I often wear very dramatic makeup. It's definitely a dark "notice me" shade and gets a lot of attention.

For the record, I have an extremely pale complexion (around a NW10, I believe).

Hang Up isn't very dramatic, it is very wearable but its more fleshy plum than purple for me

I love Hang-Up and I pair it with Velvetella lipliner. Very wearable.

Got my B2M box today! I ended up with Cyber and Hang-Up and I freaking love both of them!!!!

Just have to experiment with lip liners now!

Thanks for all the help, everyone!

My favorite liner for Cyber (that matches it) so far has been a dark reddish brown eyebrow pencil that I picked up at Sally Beauty supply. It's from the brand that they normally keep near the till. It's the exact same color.

I was gonna say go for Hang Up but just seen u got it lol. It's gorgeous! You should check out Vino liner with it.

I can't believe I missed this thread earlier...

As far as liners go, I love Nightmoth for almost all vampy lip applications. This is my go-to lip liner for dark colours. If you prefer a creamier textured liner, Velvetella is also a good option. Or you can be really dramatic and use a black eyeliner (works with Cyber). Happy vamping!

I'll try both of those when I go to my counter!

Of course.

I don't have any of those but I think Cunning lipstick with Vino lipliner from the FF collection is fantastic.
