Greetings from the inner workings of the WordPress.com dungeon, fellow adventurers!
A little update on my Ultimate Guide to Stealthy Pink Lipsticks – it’s now a proper blog feature! If you cast your eye up to the Menu Bar, you will see a shiny new section! It’s my intention to fill this with all sorts of different lipstick guides, starting with pink 😀
Many lovely bloggers and reader adventurers have generously donated their favourites to help make the guide more complete, complete with links to reviews and swatches where they have ’em. If you’d like to contribute your favourite stealthy/MLBB/pink(based) lipstick to the list, please let me know in the comments to the original post (here) or the comments to this post!
The more info you include, the better (such as what your skintone/colouring is, for example) – and if possible, I’d like the guide to cover as many different types, finishes, and brands of stealthy pink lipsticks as there are favourites, and, more importantly, as many skintones and undertones as possible!
Before you ask, yes, I’m planning to add other guides (such as ‘Purples’ and ‘Vamps’ and ‘Reds’ and ‘Corals’ and ‘Nudes’, and ‘Fuchsias’ …you get the idea), but we’re starting with pinks! Of course, it doesn’t stop you thinking up a few favourites from the other categories… 😉
Until next time, fellow rogues, don’t forget to check for traps – and let me know your faovurite stealthy pink lispticks! 😀

This is great!
I don’t have a MLBB pink lipstick yet, cause you know forever tanned Indian skin-tone, not all pinks are not flattering on me. Bring on the red series then I will talk 😉

One of my absolute favourites is Tarte Lipsurgence Matte Lip Pencil in Hope. It’s so sophisticated and still just on the edge of natural. I love it! I’m about as fair as you can get and still have a neutral/slight yellow undertone- approx. NC10 on the Mac scale. Hope someone else can enjoy my love too! (Also can’t wait for the purples, vamps and reds. I have those covered!)

I have quite a few favorite MLBB pinks — Chanel Boy Rouge Coco Shine, Burberry Lip Mists in Field Rose & Pink Heather, and MAC Dream Daze! All work so well to instantly brighten my face (for reference, I’m about MAC NC30 with yellow undertones). This is a fun feature, Syl!!

My favorite pink shades are L’Oreal Colour Riche Lipcolor in Mauved (so pretty with a touch of frost), and my all-time MLBB perfect shade is Lancome Colour Design in Vintage Rose, which is one of those almost universal natural-pink-rose hybrids.
