love girl about town lippie. I like to wear it with a fairly simple eye look. Expensive pink on lid and folie in the crease, lots of black liner and mascara. I will also do a blush like desert rose or even dolly mix. There are so many ways to wear this lipstick I keep coming up with new looks based around this shade, lol.It's a must have IMO.

I agree with Caramel_QT. Anytime you wear a bold lip it's good to keep the eyes fairly toned down. You could do just a sweep a natural e/s that matches your skin tone plus liner and mascara. If you're very daring though you could try a green eye with a bright pink lip. I use NYX Serengeti Trio for this. I've gotten compliments when I do this look.
Sometimes Girl About Town or any other bright lip can be a little over the top so I blot it with a tissue to remove some of the color then use a coordinating gloss to sheer the color and reduce the intensity. This can make a bright lip more wearable especially for the faint of heart. HTH.

I'm struggling with this lippie just doesn't work for me. I'm gonna purchase and try it with pink poodle l/g and see. For me I think I imagined more of a vibrant pink and well its like a purple-ly fuchsia. Make sure you really love it before you purchase it, I wish I would have. I'm thinking about trying lickable l/s. Anybody have the two? How do they compare and what not?

I actually bought GAT but the amplified creme finish was too much for me to handle since I'm more of a gloss and neutral person. It was very bold and in your face agains my nw45/50 skin. I actually liked, and eventually bought, Lickable much better. I love the cremesheen formulas because of the slight shine and its buildable so you can use it like a stain or go heavy and bold. Both GAT and Lickable last a long time and leave a slight stain on the lip even after it rubs off.

^^^ I'm gonna try lickable l/s and see because GAT is just too much for me, its obnoxious bright on me. Plus I have very full lips... I'm also NW45. Thx hun!
