C40 - Brown Hair - Brown Eyes - GGG <br><br> Nice dark brown lipliner. I thought it'd be a bit lighter. I think this is one for MMMs or darker, I can't see anyone in the lighter skin range...

(NC43 Studio Fix, CCC here!) Chestnut is my HG lip liner! One of my can't-do-without products. The amazing thing for me about this liner is that it can go with virtually any lipcolor. I even...

I don't know what the hype is about this lip liner, but I don't like it or use it! It makes all of my lipsticks and lip gloss look burgundy. I hate it! Chestnut should be brown.

A good lipliner on my NC43 skin. A nice brown with warm reddish undertones. I have to use a really light hand with this one though because it's pretty dark and too much makes me look goth. Goes...

Best darker lipliner for everything! I have asian skin with yellow undertones. Makes my lips look polished with any lipstick or gloss. Blending is the key. It is not a nude color for me. I might...

When I first bought this I thought it was a bit too dark, even though I am an NW45. If you are a bit unure, try blending it in a little with your finger. It takes away the hard line too. I use this...

I don't know how many times I've bought this. I can't do without it. It's a neutral yet slightly warm deep brown that's super blendable and works with everything. (C7/NC45) I can't go wrong with...
