My top 5 neutral lipsticks

Even though I love bold, flashy lipsticks, the ones I wear most of the times are all neutrals - I usually go for "my lips but better" colours. Here are my top 5! They looked so pretty when I swatched them on my hand that I didn't want to take them off!

The first one I want to show you is the most recent addiction to my collection and it's Tarte Lip Surgence in Obsession. I already had one in Flashy and when I was asked if I wanted to swap for it, I couldn't say no! I love the fact that it comes in a chubby pencil. It's as moisturizing as a lipbalm (it also gives that tingly feeling on the lips) and has kind of a sheer finish. The shade is a browny pink, the most wearable colour ever.
The second lipstick is Isadora Perfect Moisture in 153 Bare Berry; the shade is in the same colour family as the Tarte lipstick, but it's a bit darker. It's also creamier, and it has a sheer finish. I love the fact that it's almost a brown but it doesn't make my teeth look yellow at all! (:
The next product is MAC Pink Plaid. This one definitely has a pink, almost mauve colour. It has a matte finish and I love it for a night out when I'm wearing a more dramatic eye look.
Another neutral MAC lipstick is Modesty; it's very similar to the Tarte LipSurgence in shade and finish (but it smells like vanilla ). The last lipstick is a Revlon Lipbutter in 050 Berry Smoothie. Oh, how much I love this one! The perfect pink shade that perfectly mixes with my lips and makes them look less boring.
