Given the number and content of the reviews here, I'd say that this is a great YLBB shade for those with fair to lighter-medium skintones, particularly those with medium-to-dark hair. The "subtle...

I went to the counter tonight looking for Flattering in Mattene. The MA said that it wasn't available and she found Brave for me as a substitute. I' was pleasantly surprised to find that it's...

I absolutey adore this lipstick! I wanted a everyday pink that has lasting power so I don't have to reapply every 5 seconds when I'm running around. This fits the bill, both in terms of...

I wear viva glam II with heavy eye makeup, but wanted something for my wedding that would be darker, to go with a lighter eye. In the tube I thought this was going to be too pink and too dark but...

This is a really pretty lip color! I usually wear very light, shimmery/icy pinks. I saw this color and read the reviews and thought it looked like a nice, natual pink, so I ordered it. It's...

I think I may have found my Beige/mauvish/nude HG l/s: I tried Brave at the counter which at first looked like VG II (ugly on me); in fact this is the shade I was looking for when I bought VG II ;...

I was looking for a lipstick that would suit the wedding makeup look in my profile and the makeup board suggested Brave..they’re dead on. It looks just like that lipstick, but I’m paler than the...

Nice light pinky-brown. It has a matte texture, so beware of dry lips. This color works with many different looks, and it's the color i go to whenever i'm tired of my other more dramatic shades and...

I'm hopping on the bandwagon - this may be my new all-purpose neutral lipstick! I would say this is a soft pink with a beige cast. Initially I was concerned that it would be too mauve or cool-toned...

Great basic pinky-rose with a touch of brown and very little shimmer. This is one of MACs satin formula's, which is like a matte , but not too drying. I love pairing this when i'm wearing NARS...

I don't know why but I keep getting lipsticks in the pink/nude family. My guess is that I'm subconsciously trying to find my "perfect" shade. I wouldn't say this is it, but it's close. I'm not too...

Boy, I wish this was as pink/brown as some of the reviews say. But on me, it comes up more orange/brown. Plus, I don't love the texture. For everyday use, it's too heavy for me. I work in a dark...
