The Orange Toned


Hello everyone, 
Orange is sweet and yummy but on the lips it can be bitter and meh, especially when you apply the wrong orange shades or you don't have the bright lips confidence... Personally I haven't really warmed up to orange lipsticks it sometimes intimidate me (**shy face).

L-R: True Toffee, Coral Crush, Kiss Me Coral, Hot Tamale, Red Siren, Really Red
Maybelline True Toffee, when you hear toffee you would automatically think nude-y-browny kind of shade right? I know from the swatch it looks all browny but on the lips you can definitely see it's orange toned. It is a nicely pigmented and gorgeous everyday shade. check out my review on true toffee..
Revlon Kiss Me Coral, this is more orange-y than coral-y, kiss me coral is from Revlon's super lustrous creme line, it is pigmented but not too overwhelming, this should look good on most skin tones plus it is a wearable everyday orange.  
Maybelline Coral Crush, technically coral is in the orange family , it will definitely give you a crush on coral but I'm kinda moody on this babe, it is pigmented though, glides on smooth. 
NYX Hot Tamale, sooo many oranges were harmed in the making of hot tamale, it is a bright toned orange and it is for the bold hearted. Review here.
Maybelline Red Siren is not one of my fave lipsticks but it is orange toned, I just don't get it with this lipstick it is a bit too loud for me but it is quite moisturizing and pigmented but too bright, review here.
Revlon Really Red, is believed to be a dupe for MAC's Russian red, it is matte but non drying, it is a really gorgeous blue toned red, perfect for an evening look.

Ohhk beauties, do you love orange/orange toned lipstick? What is/are your favorite one(s)? I will love to check them out.. Stay fabulous and have a lovely day!

  5. What a great bunch! I love coral crush the best! I love how seeing how colors look different on different skin colors! I always think a nude brown shade is going to work for me and then it turns out it looks like a rosy brown on me! :p
