I am looking for sheer lipsticks, especially in a blue-red and nice strong rose and strong (not pale) pink colors. Any suggestions?

I find highly pigmented reds make me look like an old lady. I am in my 50's and I know a lighter hand is better in makeup as one gets older.

--Hi Chessmont- I too, am in my 50's--
MAC makes a nice one See Sheer- also, the YSL volupt sheer candy line is great- but $$$-
The Revlon lip butter in Candy Apple is another favorite of mine-
Hope this helps-
 
YSL, Armani, Dior.. just look at different lippies & see what strikes your fancy..

Hourglass also has some sheer ones

You can also use a lipliner & fill in your lips & top wth gloss

Am doing this more now
 
Another vote for Chanel Rouge Coco! And the YSL Rouge Volupte Shines. I also really love the Tarte LipSurgences. Not the matte stain ones, but the glossy ones. Achiote is probably my favorite lip color of all time. It's a pretty reddish pink that's not too POW!-in-your-face.

Oops, I meant Chanel Rouge Coco Shines. It's not letting me edit.
