Shroom or Naked Lunch if you had to pick one only?

and why?

Oh and are these 2 universal colours for any skin tone or is there another colour which does the same job but better suited to darker tones?

When I first got Naked Lunch I loved it! Then I got Shroom...and although my love for NL has not died, Shroom is just a wee bit more versatile.

Depends on what you're using it for, I guess? Shroom is my HG highlighter and I'm an NC40. Naked Lunch goes on way too shimmery as a highlighter and kind of makes me look like a raccoon, but it's a nice regular color.

none for highlight for me, they are both too dark and too shimmery. for highlight I use vanilla or vapor.
If I have to choose one for lid color: naked lunch

Hmm...tough choice. I love Naked Lunch for an all-over wash with Mulch in the crease for a neutral look, but Shroom is awesome for highlighting and for a really subtle eye.

But if I had to pick just one, Naked Lunch.

Naked Lunch all the way. Like the above posters said, it's better for darker skin, which I have.

i use both, for different colors though...shroom is probably a little more versatile though, since NL has pink in it

I think shroom is warmer but thats jmo, I like both.. shroom is more a perfect nude on my pale skin tho. TBH I think they are great together if you want a NARS AAE type of look.

Of my friends, those of us who are NC15-25, we all use shroom as our nude, the NC35s and darker use Naked Lunch. There you have it!

naked lunch is gorgeous... shroom is way too light for me.

but you have to keep in mind that naked lunch is a frost texture meaning its a way more frosty look and shroom is more sheer... that is why some people love shroom and other love naked lunch.

i think theyre different enough to have both

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I HATE Shroom! I'm NC20 and it just disappears on me, blends right into my skin and has a weird grey cast to it on me. I do like Naked Lunch and I use it as a highlighter sometimes, but honestly I use Jest or Hush or Phloof more often then Naked Lunch.

Shroom. It is great for highlighting under brows and is perfect to apply underneath or over other colours to tone down some brightness.

I'm very pale (nw15), and I prefer Naked Lunch over Shroom. I maybe b/c it has an once more color to it than Shroom does.
