"My Lips But Better" (MLBB)

[studytime45]

I always interpreted this as nude. I'm dumb. I always tried to find something too orangey or concealer-like, and it was not flattering. 

Anyway, I think I found a (cheap!) MLBB for my colouring. Here is before/after. The lipstick is NYC lipstick in "snowcone". $3 lol It's described as frosted but it's very subtle. 




Post your favourite MLBB shades here! Bonus if you post pics, or describe your colouring.

Revlon Sultry stain (a little pinker), Chanel La Raffinee (pinker), Revlon pink truffle lip butter, Maybelline Crazy for coffee. My absolute favorite is Makeup forever in N9.

I have medium tan coloring.

Tom Ford Cary works for me.

I have some PIPs that I'm half-tempted to post, but my lips look weird so I probably won't, lol. For reference, my closest foundation match is Nars Siberia (pale with yellow-ish undertones).


L'Oreal Colour Riche in Fairest Nude. I like this one. It's just a touch too orange or brown for me to say that I love it.

My favorite is NYX Butter Balm in Brownie. This one is the tiniest bit darker than my natural lips and is the perfect color. It's a little more pink than Fairest Nude.

[Vespasia]

MUFE N9 from the last Sephora birthday gift is perfect for me.

Don't mind the side braid, just trying to bring back the '90s

For me, it's more about being sheer than anything else... kind of a tinted sheer that lets your lips shine through.  That's probably a weird interpretation, though.




Mac Viva Glam IV:



Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Fig Jam:



...and in Candy Apple (which is kinda a red MLBB color)




FWIW, I think most of the Colorburst Lip Butters fall into that category.



My favoritest MLLB is from a local spa chain; I'm wearing it in Monday's FOTD:
