I’m looking for a standard, everyday nude bullet lipstick (and pencil) but I’m a pale, cool-toned ginger (and a goth to boot, pick a struggle ik) and everything I try comes up either too peachy/orange or pink, both of which just don’t look right on me.

Jeffree Star velour liquid lipstick in Posh Spice looks like it might be a good shade but I hate how liquid lips feel, and I don’t really to buy from him ngl 😅

Thanks for any suggestions!

    Hannah Louise Poston has two videos on this subject. She really likes the shade “Gone Greige” by Maybelline and she was looking for a replacement because she thought it was discontinued. (It still might be, but she found one direct from the brand site.) The first is her attempt to dupe Gone Greige specifically and the second is testing out “weird” drugstore lip shades. These might help you. Also, in a recent video she tried on some Unearthly Cosmetics shades which are of the same ilk.

    NYX suede matte lippies! They have a variety of cool toned nudes, and a grayish-lavender (I think it’s called moonstone??) Estée Lauder bullets are on sale, probably the cheapest I’ve ever seen them at ulta rn. Juvia’s place and ABH have great options too

    It’s a grey brown shade which I bought by mistake and I don’t like it but it matches your description perfectly

    I like Act Natural by Mac! More cool toned neutral than greige but still very cool while being a nice “everyday” sort of shade!
