Okay so yesterday I decided to go with a nude lip which is very unusual for me. I tend to lean towards darker, bolder lipsticks so this was very new and intimidating for me. I ended up picking a lipstick that's far too light for me and kind of made me look dead (left photo) so I used a darker color to outline my lips (right photo). Opinions? Suggestions?
Lipstick - "Pink Suga'" from Wet 'N Wild
Lip liner - Avon Color Trend in "Neutral"

I personally think you would look better with a darker lip color

Much better with the liner but I agree with Hannah...vampy and dark lippie is your signature look.

I'm definitely more comfortable in dark lipsticks, right after I put this on I realized I probably should've gotten a darker shade

I think its cute and goes with your hair color. I think a dark lip would be to much with your hair in my opinion.

Brittany, I'm sure a lot of people think that, my makeup has always tended to be very dramatic, but I always keep my eyeshadow neutral when I do bold lipsticks. I just really like dramatic makeup, especially when it comes to lipstick. However, it can a be a bit too much so I do have a few light pinks and I think I'll start using a nude lipstick whenever I want to keep it natural looking :)

Riff I do think you wear the dark lip well but also think that color you have on looks good. Do whatever makes you comfortable girl :-)

Yeah the right looks way better - but usually if you're going to do a nude lip you should do a really crazy eye and lots of blush/bronzer so that you don't get that almost dead look - but I agree dark lips look so good on pale skin imo.

I would try a more pink nude and a dramatic eye. I have a hard time doing nude otherwise.
