^^ Antigone is beautiful so you will love it!

Rachel's description of it as a "soft reddish rose" is perfect, even on my pigmented lips. It's a great everyday face-brightening shade.

Ohhh my goodness. I am loving the RC Shines for REALS. Misia is totally gorgeous, a perfect everyday soft peachy tangerine. Romance is lovely too, a really flattering pink. The only one I have yet to test-drive is Antigone, can't wait!!

I wish I could get a sample of Romance -- I think I want that one and Aventure next!

I agree!

Michelle - you need Romance

Winthrop - thanks

MissQQ - is so right on Antigone

Thanks to everyone I feel like I must try have Antigone... and Misia... and Aventure... oh my

. I'm currently looking for a MLBB shade though... probably with a touch of pink. Do you have any recommendations? My lips are really pigmented btw.

 

[Bonitinha]

Elegant -- seriously, I need Romance! haha I need to stop talking about it and do something about it!

Astrid -- have you tried Boy yet? I tried the sample of it and it was truly a MLBB pink mauve on me. But my lips aren't all that pigmented . . .

 

[cutemiauw]

Michelle -- Not yet! I think it could be too light for me... I might try Biarritz from what I've seen of the swatches...

 

[elegant-one]

I had been back & forth between Elise & Bonheur

probably Elise after Winthrops post

 

[User38]

cutie.. Antigone is a must imo.. it is so deep and rich and light... like too much wine on your lips.. lol.

Romance is lovely, but I still prefer my older Clarins Rouge prodige in P. Pink.. it holds up better on me. The pink seems to fade a lot faster -- either that or I talk too much. lol.

 

[elegant-one]

Alrighty....I just ordered Elise

Hi Ladies, can I ask you all to recommend a sweet, feminine pink from the Rouge Coco Shine lineup? I have medium-pigmented lips and did not like "Boy" at all (which is the only other Rouge Coco I have tried aside from Liberte). As you all have read I live pretty far from a counter and would like your recc's so I can order something online! Thanks in advance lovelies!

 

[elegant-one]

Janice -

Chance - lighter pink with peach hues
Romance - a bit more pigmented med sweet pink pink

I love Romance on! That would be my pick.

I have pigmented lips & Boy didn't show up all that well on me.

Aventure is another possibility for Janice, don't you think elegant? It's so pretty, and very feminine, I think.

Have you seen Karla's swatches Janice?

Yes - that is true. I thought about that after I posted & looking for great swatches for her!

Aventure is a bit rosier on me (prolly because of my lip color) than Karla's swatch

 

[elegant-one]

Janice - I would be more than happy to take pics & swatches of those 3 for you tomorrow in good light if you want.

Thank you both for the replies and link to Karla's blog on these.

Oh yes, please, that would be lovely Elegant!

One vote from me for Aventure! I think it's a lovely sweet pink. Romance is a slightly deeper pink on me, and Chance is a slightly lighter pink on me.

 

[Miss QQ]

Janice, I go with Aventure too. It is just the right pink for a sweet look. And then followed by Chance. Romance is more intense pink.

I wanted to buy Antigone again at this counter which was having a promotion, but it was out of stock also. Not sure when stocks will arrive.

 

[Bonitinha]

Janice -- I also think Adventure would be a great choice for you. I tried Aventure in the sample pack and loved it! It isn't too cool or too warm -- but it is slightly warm due to the gorgeous golden pink shimmer
