Looking for a True Peach.

[Kels823]

Doesnt have to be mac, just looking for a true peach e/s w/ a nice color payoff? I tried Arena but its alot more golden than I would like.....

Ne ideas?

TIA!

Try Paradisco or Melon pigment. And definitely use a base (such as base light) to intensify

I agree with Melon pigment, or Apricot Pink which is a little pinkier.

Melon pigment would be a good choice, but on me (NC35), it has a lot of gold shimmer in it so it ends up more on the goldish side than true peach

Mejelly - yep, same w/ me (NC45). Turns out gold instead of melon.

Thanks for the responses so far!!!

Melon pigment over, say, Canton Candy paint, may give you the peachy look you're going for. Also, if you can get your hands on Say, Yeah its an INCREDIBLE peachy colour

I have Paradisco, and that's pretty peachy as long as you use a base.

Have you tried acid orange pigment? I know it sounds SUPER ORANGE, but on me it's pretty peachy looking with only a hint of goldish/yellowish shimmer (unlike melon, which is packed with gold shimmer)

If it's a soft peach you are looking for... you might want to try looking at blush colors. You can find some gorgeous colors that you normally wouldn't think about putting on your eyes!! Be weary.. they are most likely not opthamologist tested. (I have never had a problem though.)

I agree w/ VioletB - the only MAC blush that is a TRUE peach color without any pink undertones is peaches - it's my fav peach colored blush and it usually tends to stay a true peach on medium to darker warm skin with golden undertones, so it should work for you

EXPENSIVE PINK E/S!!!! Despite the name, it really is more peach than pink.

Melon is also more golden on me...

Thanks yall!!

I actually thought about going the blush route... and it def. wont be my first time...

If neone has ne ideas that arent by mac, thats okay too.

Ill have to try expensive pink tho... I think my bff has it so Ill swipe hers to see what it looks like on me..

Expensive pink is definitely not peach on me (NC35) - I believe it tends to show it's peachy side on fairer skin - on deeper skin, it is more of a bronzy pink

What about Sun e/s by Stila? Melon is also a good call.

Oh Urban Decay new shadow in Jones is nice too. It's color discription is a golden orange, but it looks peachy.
