I am honestly surprised more people have not tried or reviewed this lipstick. I absolutely LOVE Faux! It gives pigment to your lips but still comes off looking sorta "nude-ish", without making...

This is a sexy little lipstick. The MAC artist told me this would look great on my nc20 skin, he was right! It is a nice matte (even though it's a satin I believe), light pinky-nudey shade. It...

I like this. It is a mid tone pink, no shimmer, no frost, perfect for daytime. It has good staying power. My only complaint is it can be drying, or it looks drying, so I definitely need to apply a...

Faux is my favorite nude lipstick ever. I'm a pale girl, and those nude lipsticks that are too peachy/fleshtone/opaque look dreadful on me. I've finally come to terms that I look better with some...

I love the color of this lipstick. It's a nice matte nudish pink. I do have to make sure that my lips are very moisturized before this goes on or my lips flake. Because of this, I would not...

One of my favorite winter colors. I pair this with MAC's Subculture lipliner, and get a nice pale, matte pink color that doesn't look too overdone, but is noticeably there.

Bought this yesterday and I love it. It's the perfect pink nude for my pale face. Doesn't look grey at all, so I don't know where that's coming from. Anyhoo, it's listed as satin, it feels more...

I use faux as a base and layer lipglass on top of it...either MAC Florabundance or Underage. It produces a really pretty color and usually makes the lipglass stay on longer.

I love this lipstick...it's a great color. Almost completely natural but a little pink/peach-ier. This lasts a while too...I think because it's a satin finish.

This color was wrong for my nc30 skintone. Too pinkish/greyish for me, so it wound up looking unnatural. I think it would work on a cooler skin tone. I exchanged this for Spirit, which worked...
