Ever struggle to find your right shade of lipstick? Yesterday on "Hoda and Jenna" Bobbie Thomas visited The Lip Lab (NY) where they will make you 2 bullets while you watch. 

 

They have options for tube color/shape, lipstick's finish (sheer, full coverage, frost, etc.) and taste....

 

I'm intrigued. Would you have your perfect shade of lipstick made for you?

@phoenixbrd  Many times, like Bobbie doing the story, I also adjust my lip liner to achieve a lighter or darker or brighter shade of lipsticks. 

 

I'd love a personalized tube with my name printed on the bottom. I assume they keep your info on file for the next two tubes.

@Shanus  I never struggle with the right shade of lipstick!

What I struggle with is deciding which right shade I want to wear every day! Smiley Happy

Depends on the cost, but I think I would like more than one "made for me" shade.  I like variety.  Woman Very Happy

@Shanus 

 

After searching for literally years and using up a good bit of my stash of that color, I found a company that matches the shade.....thanks to a poster on here.

 

I have been using the two tubes originally ordered and am very happy with it.  Simple tube, shape.  Matched the coverage.  No taste which I prefer.  Will reorder at the lower price now that they have done the first match. 

Anyone can now order that color at the lower price since it is in their " library of colors. "

@Shanus 

Thanks so much ! That does sound interesting .Years ago when I used Bobbie Brown they had given a lip color in a shaded called Naked Pink in a gift with prchase  . I fell in love with it . Even my husband complimented how pretty it looked . Of course it was a limited shade . I live in Brooklyn and sent it to 3 Custom Colors to dupe the color . It was expensive at the time (early 2000's ) $60 for 2 tubes . I could not wait to get them . They were pretty , but when holding it side by side with the Bobbie Brown , they were no where near the color .  You sparked my interest again  . Have a great weekend and thank you for all your help with all our beauty questions !!

I would love it! I am cosmetically challenged.  Never can figure out which is the right shade of anything for me.  Of course, it doesn't help that I'm highly allergic to scents and ingredients.  I have always had a bit of rosacea on my cheeks......some of the ladies I used to work with thought it I was wearing makeup when I wasn't wearing anything.

@marmarbrooklyn   My pleasure to help out. I loved the BB frosted lipsticks. Why is everything great discontinued?

 

You have a great weekend as well. Heart
