    Although I personally feel like MAC products are overpriced and you can find drugstore dupes that are just as good of quality, I do love this lipstick. Perfect "my lips, but better" lipstick with a...

    I have medium skin tone w/yellow undertones.. I love this lipstick. Looks similar to my natural lip color but adds a more pink tone. I apply a chapstick before I put this on and it goes on smoothly...

    Very close in color to MAC's Brave. Only difference is the finish. Brave is a satin finish and Modesty is a cremesheen. This color is very my lips but better. It's also slightly darker than my...

    I love this lipstick. I tend to go for more subtle, natural makeup, and this color fits the bill nicely. Viva Glam V has always been my staple MLBB shade, but Modesty gives me a lovely...

    I agree with the favorable reviews below. This is a great nudish/natural color that isn't too little or too much. It's just pretty. I have light olive skin, NC25, and I love the nude lip look....

    UPDATE FALL 2012: My needs have changed, from when I first reviewed this. I wanted a muted down pale lip not MLBB. On me Modesty is my lip color. So I passed on it for Creme de Nude at the...

    Everybody should own this. No thought required, no mirror even required. It is THE MLBB, and I own A LOT of those. I also like how it isin't completely matte, and the formula isint as drying as...

    Excellent YLBB shade for pale ladies with very pigmented lips - I am a NW15 and it takes down the (sometimes pretty extreme) redness in my lips to a 'not wearing lipstick but healthy looking'...
