Re: Those who are NW45 and darker, what shades of MAC's lip pencils do you wear and w
Right now one of my favorite shades of lipgloss has to be Sugar Trance from the Fafi line. It's a really soft pink that gives just enough light pink color but doesn't make my lips look pasty. I have been wearing it with Chesnut as a liner.
Other faves are:
Shockolate
Languish
Pop Mode
Viva Glam V
Hope this helps.

I wear Chestnut, but I hate it so, because it is too orange if you know what I mean, but whatev. I most wear, Vino, Currant, Plum, Mahoghany. This is a good question because I was looking for a neutral color that I can wear with my neutral lipsticks and what thinking about cork or Spice, I think.
