Battle of the Corals: Guerlain, Illamasqua, Makeup Forever and Lancome

Okay, so Obviously I have been on the hunt for Corals, and in the search for my perfect Coral which is YSL Peach Faubourg I have amassed some AMAZING lipsticks. Each and everyone of the below I absolutely love and am very happy I went on this search because I would have never found these, Guerlain Guilette, Illamasqua Over, Make Up Forever 405, Lancome Chris and Tell.

They look very orange-y in doors with a flash but they aren't. All of these colors are so great in their own way.

Guerlain Giulette: A creamy, very rich lipstick that lasts and lasts. This is the darkest of all colors and has more pink than the others. There is a SLIGHT golden shimmer, very very slight and undetectable in the texture once on the lips. For me, this color would look better with a tan, this one out of the bunch I will wear the least because it is a darker color but its fun!

Illamaqua- I love this color, this might be my favorite color out of the bunch, however the texture isn't my favorite. It is very matte and very thick. Do not wear if you have dry lips, it would look terrible. This wears forever, Which is a huge plus and is Super Opaque which is super awesome. This is almost a neon coral, I am VERY happy i found this, I will be rocking this A LOT!

Lancome Chris and Tell: Easiest shade to wear, definitely the most flattering on every skin tone. Very light, creamy and opaque. Its a perfect mix of coral, peach and pink. This so universal. This would also be fab used as a cream blush in a hurry.

Make Up Forever 405: Great Color, Great Consistency, Great Formulation. I am very impressed, this is my first MUFE lipstick and I am loving it, I will be looking more at this lipstick line. This is most similar to chris and tell but with a more neon kick. I love it, its a little spicier and daring.

All in all, these are all great lipsticks!

Thoughts? Do you own any of the above?

Lancome Chris and Tell du Jour: Love in a Tube

I am one lucky lady, look what i have below. As you all know I have been DYING for this lipstick. Lancome's Chris and Tell, the perfect soft coral. I am so psyched about this!

I have worn like 4 times already, i am using sparingly as I never want to run out. I wore it out to dinner the first night and got 2 compliments!! One from my boyfriends mother and another from a co-worker. That's when you know it is a success!

The formulation is super creamy and moist, lasts about 4-5 with no eating. It has the classic Lancome smell which I am a huge fan of. The color is like a ripe peach with a hint of pink to make one of those universally flattering. This color will look amazing on ANYONE. I am so crushing on this!

Swatch of Chris and Tell on the very top of my hand.

This is one I will be rocking everyday soon as it warms up...or not and just wear it now!
Anyone else happen to snag this?
