Rose

Rose is the ideal option for all of you makeup minimalists out there. If you normally swipe on petal pinks, go for a slightly deeper sheen that is close to your natural lip color. One that gives a slight but noticeable flush is Korres Lip Butter in Wild Rose, $18.

Why does it feel like most of those colors are variations of orange? Rose is just about the only one I have any interest in trying.

I need more coral options that I can but at the drugstore. Cover Girl Queen Collection are hard to find in Tucson.

Good alternative suggestions for spring. I've wanted to get the Korres wild rose lip butter for awhile now and keep forgetting...this artilce just remonded me to order it! LOL

orange looks bad on me but I do like rose. I have a light complexion.

LOVE the salmon color-great idea! However, I have found that the tomato red and the coral have been popular recently.

by hanana Thursday, March 14, 2013 at 08:24AM Report as inappropriate

The orange and tomato are awful, but the rest are very pretty. Going to have to try the rose, salmon, and coral!

Bummer that there's only one blue-based color among the five. Although I wish I could wear the salmon pink.

All of these colors have been in style for the past few years...especially oranges and corals. For an excellent tomato red MAC's 'Russian Red' or their Archie's Girls Collection 'Ronnie Red' are awesome!

I liked all but the first lipcolor.

scary!

by AstridB Monday, February 25, 2013 at 11:56PM Report as inappropriate

All of these colors looks terrible on me (except the rose). Go with whatever works for your skin tone and forget what people say is the "it" color. Look at Sophia, that color does NOTHING for her!

I can't stand Sophia Vergara's eyebrows. Is that weird?

I like these colors. I'm not sure about the orange, but the rose and salmon were pretty.

by NillaButterfly Friday, February 22, 2013 at 08:28PM Report as inappropriate

These colors are awful. :(

by robyne00 Friday, February 22, 2013 at 05:15PM Report as inappropriate

I really don't care much for the colors myself. Guess I am a bit old fashion. The red is fine and perhaps coral, but yuck, not orange.

by Alana_Danes Friday, February 22, 2013 at 04:02PM Report as inappropriate

Same old same old on some of these. The bright lips don't look flattering at all. (Orange and Orange Red, I'm talking to you.)

Not a big fan of the colors. I do like the rose and salmon.

I love the shade #7 is wearing but can't tell for the life of me what it is, who it's by, how much it is where you get it or anything... How would one go about finding that out?

by kym_haren_yahn Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 11:44PM Report as inappropriate

rose, salmon, and coral could all be nice

by Chris213 Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 07:12PM Report as inappropriate

The names of these colors are just... LOL cute I suppose.

by MissXu Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 07:10PM Report as inappropriate

I don't like any of these. The saturation of pigment in all of them calls for bright white teeth like all of the models have. For someone who has not had their teeth whitened, all of these would make one's teeth appear yellow.

I am never going to wear orange. Other wise good

by HxCookie Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 01:27PM Report as inappropriate

Orange. Not gonna happen.

by KurleeTop Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 12:49PM Report as inappropriate

Like the color suggestions. Sure do wish totalbeauty would offer both a high end and low end lipstick for each color.

by inthemiddles Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 12:35PM Report as inappropriate

loving these new hues! i will def be buying the covergirl in to the red! looks lovely!

would've been more helpful if this article had more specific tips for different skin tones on how to wear these shades...

by jenstar313 Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 10:39AM Report as inappropriate

I am most excited about Rose and Coral.

by Sari Sunday, February 17, 2013 at 11:35PM Report as inappropriate

Love the rose color!

by eatinglipstick Wednesday, February 13, 2013 at 04:40PM Report as inappropriate

I think that color would look nicw on me!! My skin is shade of tan. I t should work out! lol

these are so pretty

by LittleBunny Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 05:19PM Report as inappropriate

Love this round up of fresh, spring shades. I'm especially interested in getting a pretty "salmon" color for the season.

by HeathRene Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 04:21PM Report as inappropriate

Still too dark for me. I'll stick with lighter shades.

by EricaF123 Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 03:41PM Report as inappropriate

I'm not a huge fan of those colors simply because they don't look good on me. But you're right about wearing whatever you feel like and whatever goes with your skintone, style, and outfit.

by venenumletalis Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 01:40PM Report as inappropriate

Fun coliours. I guess orange is back for this year.

by nicky22 Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:21PM Report as inappropriate

This article made me sigh with relief--who says that only certain colors should be worn during particular seasons? Spring automatically makes me think of pinks and roses (universally flattering), but coral, salmon, and the other hues noted can be surprisingly becoming as well. For my junior prom many years ago, I wore a coral gown and went on a desperate search for the "perfect" color to complement my complexion and my ensemble. I found it; to this day, the pictures taken of this prom remain some of the best of my life!
