Gotta get my skates on with this final part of the series so I can post my top 2016 favourites - I'll probably combine one or two of the colour families into a single post to speed things along, but let's start with the Nudes, Bricks & Bronzes...
In the past some of you lovelies have commented "Kats, you can wear ANY colour", but it's not entirely true. Nudes and I are not an ideal match - some look better (or worse) than others, but the fact is that even the "right" nude really doesn't do me any favours. There's a certain depth of colour that I need in a lip product, or else it's all over red rover, and I look like I've been in bed for a week with a virus. This first one (Vani-T Mineral Lip Colour) was so kindly gifted at the Bloggers United AU Event last year - it's the one that comes in a case that's set with clear faceted jewels, absolutely gorgeous to look at, delightfully hydrating formula, long wearing, but La Femme is pale pale pale, and I barely get away with it. The Ulta3 Brown Sugar is a tad deeper, and therefore I feel more at ease wearing it, although it's nowhere near the lip comfort level of the Vani-T ♥...
This Colourpop Ultra Matte Beeper is way more my kind of nude, quite comfy considering it's a matte liquid, and the NYX Sandstorm scrapes in by a butterfly's eyelash colour-wise - I reckon browny nudes suit me better than pinky ones, probably a skin-tone thing ♥...
Once we start heading into the bricky hues, I can relax as there's far more vibrancy to prevent me from looking crook. The Colourpop Ultra Satin is a super comfortable formula, not as non-drying as I'd hoped, but I've only worn it once so there's plenty of time ahead to experiment with under-balms etc. The L'Oreal Forever Frappe is verging on being an orange, but I included it here because when compared with other oranges, it looks almost brown ♥...
Adore this Revlon Abstract Orange - again I haven't bundled this with the other oranges as it's really more brick by comparison, and the L'Oreal Resilient Raisin doesn't have enough pink in it to include it with the berries. Both of these have beautifully moist formulas ♥...

Only eight this time, and not a bronze in sight - I'm blaming it on Spring, which is when I'm inspired by all the blossoms and really hit the pinks. Next post will be Corals, Mauves & Pinks, and there's a lot more variety ♥...
Do you reckon any of these would suit you?
