Love this Faux shade lipstick! So pretty on me! I use with Mac half red lip liner and yay!! Love how long it lasts and it's a beautiful berry shade on me. Darker than modesty but same family!

Faux is a gorgeous mauve pink in the satin finish. If you've read other reviews of mine, you know satin in one of my favorites in the MAC line of lipsticks. This shade pulls a little cool but it's...

I'm NW15 for reference and this is an absolutely lovely wearable pink shade. If you thought you love Modesty, but it's a bit too pale try Faux. If Velvet Teddy is just too brown and dark but you...

Dont try it on if you are pale or too white. It will not show its beauty. If you are tanned or medium skin the lipstick colour transfers from a dull pastel brown purple, to a gorgious beige pink...

I received this lipstick as a gift and never actually tried it, because the only other Mac lipstick I've worn (Twig) was so drying on my lips. Plus, I don't do pink. But last week when I was...

Love it! I always wanted to have a nude lipstick that has a pink tone and doesn’t look washed out on me. This nude pink lipstick is a great MLBB! Matches almost any makeup look. Great buy!

Didn't match my skin tone (I thought it was gonna be way lighter for some reason) but other than that it's really good. Just not something for me, I guess.

Perfect pinkish nude, it doesn't dry out lips and will stay on for hours. I use it with mascara and blush only but I use it also when I'm wearing hot smokey eye look. I love it.
