This is PERFECT for us jellies!!! :nods: I'm NC20 and wear orange lips all the time!

Here I'm wearing morange. It's not the same tint as reel sexy, which was a watered down coral. This is gonne be (based on the swatch link) a couple shades lighter than morange. Don't skip it just cuz you're a jelly! :nope:

I think you sold me on any and all oranges. Morange looks very pretty on you.

It looks like it has a sheen to it on her lips. I can't wait to try it out. Soon enough!

Thanks for this, Erine! I have been on the hunt for a deep red-orange for a while. On me (NC50), Scarlet Ibis and Lady Danger are bright orange reds (you can barely see the red) and I want a red-orange that actually looks red-orange. If you have any other suggestions, please let me know!

Definitely check out So Chaud! And depending on how deep you want it, Chili is a burnt red-orange.

That looks awesome on you! What about cool toned jellies? I'm properly pink, not sure I can make orange work...

Thanks! I honestly feel that anyone can pull of oranges. A lot of people who say orange doesn't look good on them, it's more of a confidence thing more than anything. And pairing the rest of the makeup accordingly.

I think you sold me on any and all oranges. Morange looks very pretty on you.

Yay!!! ompom:

I might have to change my opinion on Morange for us palies. I like it on you. I guess it just never felt right for me because when you wear such a bright orange here everyone things of soccer or queen's day etc.

Don't skip it just cuz you're a jelly!

Just make sure to do a nude eye (with a winged liner if you'd like) and a neutral or soft orange cheek and you'll be able to pull it off!

I'll keep that in mind thanks

Gorgeous Erine. Morange looks great on you. I didnt like morange. It somehow brought out that shadow/mustache look around my mouth

Would you suggest this same make up for ANY dark lip?

Do you mean BRIGHT lip?

 

[lyseD]

Do you mean BRIGHT lip?

Dark or bright I guess -- I'm trying to branch our from neutrals.

Both! Some looks can be pulled off off with a bit more on the eyes, but just to be safe, it's best to keep the eye nude-neutral when wearing a bold lip, either bright or dark!

I hear you. I was asking b/c of the recommended orange cheek colour and I was thinking you wouldn't wear that with everything, of course. I struggle trying to style bold lips, too, quite often. I find thickish black liner and a single neutral shadow tends to work well in most cases.

I also do neutral eyes and/or black liner with bold lips, but once I'm used to the colour and get a better feeling for it I try different things. I'm currently really liking purple, red or pink lips with a turquoise eyeliner or even a red eyeliner with red lips (I have a really pretty shimmery red and turquoise liner from MUFE). I also have worn Ronnie Red with a darker purple eye and I liked it a lot. Just try some stuff at home and wear it inside to see if you like it and just have to get used to it.

Thank you everyone.

Definitely a turquoise liner with an orange/coral lips! :nods:

Hmmm, I have turquoise liner/shadow... It would take me a lot to wear those combos though. I certainly couldn't wear them to the office. (Or, I guess, wouldn't.) I haven't even been able to figure out how to wear the turquoise on the weekends. When I finally created a decent eye look I couldn't figure out what clothes looked good with it. Hard to explain, but usually my clothes are attention getting enough. I tend not to do that with makeup. It would be a paradigm shift for sure.

When I'm wearing a bold lip and want some color on my eyes I'll just put a bright liner just on the lower lash line with a neutral eye.

Just wear black and let your makeup be the attention!

Yup yup! :nods:
