Don't torture yourself!

Rizzo was the absolute best bubblegum pink shade.

I loved it!

Alumina was a frost pale blue.

I wore it as a base with lots of other lippies.

Thank you!
I feel better now, because they both sound like they wouldn't suit me well.

For permanent shades...
Impassioned (hot pink)
Lady Bug (great as a sheer stain or a lacquer-red lip)
Rebel (as a pinkish stain or an intense berry)
Russian Red (classic matte red--great with Lady Bug lightly layered over for shine)

Euristocrats shades... (perm. in some locations)
Cockney (yes, it is different from Lady Bug...Cockney is cherry red, Lady Bug is more primary red)
London Life (not vampy, not bright, a great not-so-neutral shade)
Milan Mode (bubblegum pink lustre, but not too Barbie-ish or childish)

Pro shades...
Violetta (My HG shade! It's purple, but wearable. On many it looks more pinkish, but on me it's straight-up purple.)

Okay, you and I must have been separated at birth; I love all of the colors you mentioned except for the Euristocrats shades, and that's probably only because I haven't seen them.
I couldn't live without Ladybug and Impassioned, and I've practically built a shrine to Violetta.
On NW15 me, Violetta looks mostly purple, with juuust enough pink to keep me from looking cyanotic.
It's a genius shade, as far as I'm concerned.

I totally agree with your love for Euristocrats shades. I have these three plus Naked Paris and Costa Chic and I just grabbed Patisserie from the sale section here. All the lustres in this collection are really special.

chic lipstick is currently one of my faves. it's still bold but not too much for day time. and it suits my skin tone well

I think I posted in here like 3 years ago and since my must haves change all the time I thought I update again:

From perm line:
- Ruby Woo
- Pink Nouveau
- Snob

LE/Pro:
- So Scarlet
- Show Orchid
- Thrills

I favor bold lips, especially cool toned pinks and anything red, NW25 and brown hair for reference

If my buying habits have anything to say about it, my all-time favourite must be Fast Play. I was soo bummed when I finished my first tube (I thought it was dc'd when I couldn't find it at my normal store), but then I found out it was just a PRO colour, and have been buying it regularly ever since!
