    This seemed like it would be a nice nude lipstick for me. But yep, as always, I just look kind of ghastly with it on because it’s paler than my natural lip color. It’s a brownish nude that...

    This is a great pinkish nude color for GGGs. It looks a lot like Hug Me on my lips but browner. I like to pair it with Lust, Poetic License and other lipglasses/glosses. Love it!!

    My favorite cool-to-neutral nude lipstick. My lips are pretty pigmented and this gives me a nice pale nude lip - it reminds me of Angelina Jolie's lips in "Girl, Interrupted" - a greyish pink pale...

    I love the formula of this lipstick, it feels great on the lips. It was moisturizing, a little glossy and has great deep color. But, the color was just too dark for me(light slighty pink brown)....

    This color looked taupe on my skin. It is not the nude color I had hoped it would be.

    I despise this color. The opaque, creaminess of the lipstick is nice. However, Half n' Half looks like poo on my lips. It is not pinky, it is not tan, and it is definitely not nude on me. I...

    Perfect natural shade - hard to describe though. A creamy fleshy nutty nude. It's actually the most natural looking shade I've found from MAC, but I hate the amplified formulation. Too...

    The first time I put on this lipstick, I hated it. I thought it washed me out - it seemed to blend right in with my skin, erasing any lip color at all. I don't know what happened, but when I...

    It's an ok nude color for me. Sometimes it makes me look ghostly. It tones down my lips a bit. I have to put this on very lightly or else it will make me look dead. I like to wear this with my...

    Half and Half is good if you're looking for a brownish nude, but I just found this too be way too brown to look good on me. I prefer pinkish nudes like Hug Me to this.

    I really wanted to like this shade, but it wasn't to be. I have naturally full pink lips, and all this shade did was cancel out the pink and leave me with muddy brown lips. Not a good look for PPP...

    I liked the color, a flat pinkish nude, but really disliked the texture. It emphasized any and all lip cracks - with such a neutral color there's nothing to distract from it. Gloss helps, but not...
