I first bought this in 04, it quickly became my go-to lipstick. The color is like a neutral/mauve and looks great on my already very pigmented lips. The formula is smooth and long lasting, I don't find it drying either. I have purchased at least 5 tubes of this stuff lol.
Pros: Not drying, long lasting, great value
Cons: None
I REALLY like this lipstick, besides the fact that i was looking for a deeper red this lipstick is awesome. It lasts me ALL day and never dries out my lips. I also love the chocolaty smell. I will definitely but this color again.... mac lipsticks rock!
Pros: *Doesnt dry lips
*Great smell
*Long Lasting!
Cons: *Shade is a little light
Review on: Lips - Lipsticks Loreal Colour Riche in Golden Splendor
I love this color! It's a warm, shimmery honey color. It's nicely pigmented. I love to wear this with clear gloss over the top for added shine. It doesn't last as long as I would like, but it doesn't wear off quickly either. It goes on smooth, and doesn't dry my lips out.
Pros: Beautiful color, nicely pigmented, smooth, doesn't dry my lips out
Cons: Doesn't last as long as I would like

MAC's description: Pale muted peachy-beige
Myth is a good lipstick for really toning down the lips. Apply a little to tone down lips, or more for the completely nude lips. Some nudes are too pinky or yellow for me, but Myth is perfect. Great with a smokey eye.
Do be careful to not apply too much or you will look like a corpse.
I also strongly believe that finding a good nude takes time, because it really depends on your skintone and undertones.
Review on: Lips - Lipsticks NYX Round Lipstick 642 Miracle
Almost an exact match to the swatch on the website, except it is shimmery. It is bright and the gold shimmer makes it a really pretty color. Very intense pink!
Review on: Lips - Lipsticks NYX Round Lipstick 550 Indian Pink
You can't go wrong with the NYX Round lipsticks. They last forever and are only .99!!! They are amazing!!! 550 Indian Pink, I love this color. I know you can't tell on the website if they are matte or have shimmer. This one has shimmer. I'm bad at describing colors, but I'll try my best. Hmm...the best I can do is that it is the same color as the website but has a goldish shimmer over that color, if that makes sense. More on the coral side. Great Summer Color.

This is my favorite lipstick shade from MAC. It's a great color to use when you want to tone down the color of your lips.
MAC's description: Light honey-beige toned with rose.
It's a neutral nude that is darker than my skintone (nc25-30), and still has a some color in it so I don't look like a corpse. It has enough color in it, that it is great for smokey eyes or even lighter eye makeup.
Because it is a matte finish, it is very pigmented, and it is quite long-lasting, but can be very drying. I like the matte look, but sometimes I slather on a thick balm like Rosebud's Strawberry Lip Balm and then apply the lipstick over it, so that it has a glossier finish.
Review on: Lips - Lipsticks Clinique Long Last Soft Shine in Creamy Nude
Clinique seems to have a good selection of nude lipsitcks, but I haven't tried the other nude colors from clinque yet. But so far this seems like a perfect match for me, without being too pink or too dark. I wear this almost everyday! The texture is very creamy and it doesn't dry out my lips like most other lipstick would.
Pros: creamy, perfect nude shade, doesn't dry my lips
Cons: on the pricey side
Review on: Lips - Lipsticks Stila High Shine Lip Colour in Mandy
I purchased this lip stick off Strawberry Net as soon as I applied some, it was love.
Mandy is a beautiful, medium shade of red. It can applied as a sheer tint or you can layer it for a deeper colour. Both way looks gorgeous. It's also pretty long lasting. Topped off with some clear gloss, and you've got a gorgeous combination.
Packaging is great as well. It's a plain silver tube, and when you take the lid off, the inside tube is decorated with a leaf design. Very pretty indeed.
Pros: Can be applied sheer or layered
Beautful medium red colour
Pretty packaging
Looks beautiful with a little clear gloss over the top
Cons: None that I can think of
This is LE from the Heatherette 2008 collection. I think it's an amplified cream. It's a really cool pink with a little bit of lavender. Really bright and unnatural but it looks really good on with purple and green eyeshadows. It kind of makes my lips feel a bit dry so lipbalm underneath is a must for me. I love the bright pink packaging it's in.
Review on: Lips - Lipsticks Shiseido a red color???
It most likely was P23-Real Red. I also use this color and it is a very popular red it has a slightly blue tone to it so it doesnt make your teeth look yellow! love shiseido lipsticks they are very moisturizing and that makes its price worth it!
Review on: Lips - Lipsticks Victorias Secret Beauty Victoria Secret Bunny Pink
I have been searching for the perfect soft, warm pink lipstick for winter. With all the reds out there, they are hard to find this year. However, my daughter in all her wisdom, bought me this incredible shade of Bunny Pink for CHristmas. It is from the MAC Playboy series and the packaging is the first thing that catches your eye. Signature black tubing with cute little bunnies in pink about the middle of the tube, The lipstick is an incredible pink--very soft and inviting on the lips. Nothing too shimmery of greasy--just so feminine and pretty. Makes the lips look"Kissable" and that is our purpose--right??? Run out and buy it--you will love it.
Pros: Beautiful color, smooth finish
Cons: NOthing at all wrong with this baby
Review on: Lips - Lipsticks Dior Dior Addict Ultra-Shine 256
Shiniest Softness, a sheer pale pink-nude lipstick. It almost have a lip balm texture. It's very very sheer, with just enough shimmer, it can be built on to have a more bolt look. It's best combine with Dior Addict Ultra Gloss.
