Nude Attitude! Fall Nude Lip Picks


(Right) Wet N Wild Mega Last Liquid Lip Color (I Can Bare It)
(Left) Kiss Plump & Juicy The Pucker Upper Lip Gloss (Maid For Love)
After a summer drowning in a sea of matte reds I'm in the mood for something bland new. (Pun intended) I recently came across the wnw mega last liquid lip color on sale at Walgreen's last week with a clear gloss.You can read previous reviews in the labels below for review. The Kiss gloss in my absolute favorite with it being semi opaque it gives my lips a nice nude plumped look. It feels great on the lips, long lasting and moisturizing. It is hard to find a pigmented nude gloss of this quality at the price I paid which was just under $3.00 at my local beauty supply. You also get quite a bit of product of the packaging is nice and sturdy. Both lip colors come with a doe foot applicator which I am personally a fan of. However the wet n wild lip color is very cakey, patchy and dries down to a matte finish. If not applied correctly it can appear uneven and or flake off in certain spot where food, drink, or water is exposed. A lip gloss over top is highly recommended and that will take care of some of that.

M.A.C Retro Matte Lipstick (Fixed On Drama)


How I love this deep burgundy matte lipstick, but although it is a retro matte it is not as dry as ruby woo. As unforgiving as she can be at times on the lips I happen to like the extra dry formula. This color seems more like a satin to me, but those not too familiar or picky about lipsticks probably won't notice. I give this lipstick a 4 for effort, loving the color, name, pigmentation and lasting power. Will look great on all skin tones, but will probably be more dramatic and vampy on fair to tan complexions.
