I decided to use C10 this fall and winter, intending to buy a different color in early spring. I had the beauty advisor touch up several colors before deciding. In fact, it's a versatile color. I think it would look good on anyone, bringing out their natural lip color. I have a wide variety of eyeshadow colors, so I chose it for the passive reason that I thought it would go relatively well with any of them. The color payoff isn't particularly strong, and it only lasts averagely, but it gives a naturally neat look to your face. I actually prefer a more pigmented, fuller lip color, but this one doesn't dry out during dry seasons, is reliable, and is slim and easy to carry, so I think I'll end up buying a few more colors in the future.
It was a lipstick with great color. And no matter how much I applied it, it didn't dry out my lips. My lips tend to get dry in the winter, but this didn't dry them out. (I'm usually a lip balm lover.) However, if I applied too much because my lips were dry, it would end up looking too casual for work, probably because I chose a color that stands out. My mother even asked me if it was okay to wear to work...lol. When I meet up with friends privately, they tell me I look really cute! I highly recommend it!
I went to the counter looking for a lipstick that would go with the beach. The machine diagnosed me, and the color I was undecided about suited me, so I had it touched up and purchased it. I'm happy that it was diagnosed as a color that suits both warm and cool skin tones. Thanks to the machine diagnosis, I didn't have to worry about deciding, or ask for a touch-up for a color I wanted but didn't suit me, so I saved time. It's moisturizing and lasts. It has a sheer color, so it's versatile and can be layered over rose, beige, or pink lipstick, or balanced with eyeshadow. I was outside all day on a sunny day with temperatures around 33 degrees, and I left it in my bag, but it didn't melt. I'll post again to see if it can withstand temperatures around 38 degrees.
I bought Almond Beige, which was recommended to me by a beauty advisor. It has a beautiful clear finish. The color is a pale beige-pink. I often reach for it when I want to play around with my eyes or cheeks. I also sometimes use it over lipstick that was too strong to neutralize it. The color doesn't last long, and it fades before I know it, but I like it because it doesn't irritate my skin. I hope it never gets discontinued.
I bought the color that caught my eye without a skin diagnosis. Officially, it's supposed to be hazel brown, but my skin tone doesn't have that brown vibe, it's more of a light pink beige. The texture is soft and matte, so it's great for office makeup. It doesn't dry out my skin, so I'm considering buying it again.
