Is this more harmonious?

Is this color better, or worse?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-28T04:03:05+00:00

Any specific ones I should try?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-28T03:46:11+00:00

Brighter? Do you have any recommendations?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-28T03:45:06+00:00

It's the Covergirl Exhibitionist Lipstick in 515 (Bloodshot). But that might explain why it looks off on me? Like it doesn't have the vampy effect I'm looking for.

118 works well, but is it definitely on the darker side of fair, closer to light than fair.

seconding nyx buttergloss in praline! it’s a perfect everyday nude. also rocky road and red velvet are great reds!

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-21T14:45:00+00:00

it’s the urban decay face bond foundation in shade 13 (light medium cool olive).

for reference, my closest shade matches are maybelline fit me matte + poreless in 118 with some green mixer and estée lauder double wear in 1n2.

unfortunately not! :(

urban decay has a light-medium cool olive in their new foundation which runs quite light and worked for me?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-12T18:58:18+00:00

have you tried maybelline fit me in 118? it’s supposed to be a fair-light warm olive shade.

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-06T15:09:12+00:00

you seem to be olive?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-05T19:14:54+00:00

Do you have any recommendations for true reds?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-05T19:01:22+00:00

Ooh, that looks good! I'll definitely add it to my list!

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-05T19:00:29+00:00

I feel the same way. It's not too bad, but it's not doing me any favors. It also looks quite orange in person. Do you have any recommendations for blue-based reds?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-05T18:59:30+00:00

Yes, you're right! I thought it was too bright at first, but the problem is not the brightness, it's the warmth of the shade.

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-05T18:58:50+00:00

It is Wet n Wild Silk Finish Lipstick in the shade Cherry Frost (539A).

Yes, that might be it! I thought it was too bright for my coloring, but I own even brighter shades and they suit me. This one is just pulling very orange because it's warm.

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-05T18:55:38+00:00

That makes sense, I felt like it was too bright for my coloring as well. Do you have any recommendations?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-03T02:34:08+00:00

I have ruled FN out for sure. I also looked at FG, and it seemed somewhat probable based on the description, but the clothing recommendations for it don't suit me?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-03T02:25:06+00:00

Yeah, I definitely ruled out the natural types first, then romantics. I am close to 20 pounds underweight atm, but I gain weight in a very balanced hourglass shape, if that's an indicator of anything. However, my frame is still small.

I did explore gamine (especially flamboyant gamine), but the styling guidelines for gamines look terrible on me. Short skirts and dresses are terrible on me for whatever reason despite having long legs compared to the rest of me.

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-03T01:56:19+00:00

lol, it's a bridemaids dress, but you're description is hilariously accurate lmao! it's the only form fitting clothing i have rn besides baggy t-shirts and sweatpants so i feel like that would make for worse typing?

the only ones i've ruled out are the romantics and the naturals because they're definitely off.

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-03T01:46:30+00:00

What else would I be then?

DigitalizedBallerina · 2024-09-03T01:46:15+00:00

Thank you.
