Neutral Lips

Lately I've been showing snippets of my beauty stash because there are products I still haven't swatched on the blog! It's also been a good exercise and reminder of what I have - you know that old story...stuck on your favorites and things fall to the wayside!

Neutral Lips - NARS Rosecliff, Burberry Lip Mist in Field Rose, Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Intime 

I was thinking about neutral lipsticks and found these in my stash: 

Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Intime - Originally swatched HERE. Geez I've had this forever lol! Is 2 years a long time?!! I've tried to finish it many times over, but haven't quite made it. Maybe it'll happen this year??? GAH I'm sooooo close (in the pic is all that's left!!). I still love the color. I think what keeps me from wearing it more often is that it wears off more quickly than I'd like. Though, I suppose that should be expected with a more balmy lipstick. 

Burberry Lip Mist in Field Rose - Originally swatched HERE. I've had this one even longer...3 years. It has since been discontinued, and I can't even find the color in any of the new formulas (if I'm wrong, please let me know!). This is one I keep in my makeup bag a lot but for some reason don't reach for much. I like to keep it in my bag because I know it's a really pretty neutral, but like Chanel Intime it wears off more quickly. 

NARS lipstick in Rosecliff - This is my newest addition from earlier this year. I love this color! It has just enough color to be flattering and not give me Barbie lips. Also the formula is really nice - creamy enough to not dry my lips, but still has good staying power.

Here are all 3, heavily swatched, in window & studio lights. 

What are your favorite neutral lipsticks? How long do you keep lipsticks in your stash?
