Hi ladies - so I LOVE the Chanel Coco Flash lipstick in the color Boy. However it doesn’t stay very long. It is the perfect taupey-beige - non - pink, non-orange leaning brown so I can’t seem to replicate it in either a lipstick ( satin) or lipgloss. Closest I’ve come is MAC lipglass in Explicit but it is too sticky and I want to stick with the quality of higher end / luxury. Can anyone please suggest anything that looks like the color Boy - I am in Myrtle Beach and there are NO high end stores here to see cosmetics in person- I moved from Jersey / NYC border and was used to Nordstom and Neiman Marcus to see in person. Only Dillards which has VERY limited choices in Dior ( their glosses seem to lean orangey) and Chanel. Nothing seems to look like BOY. Thanks in advance.
Can Anyone help dupe the Chanel Coco Flash color Boy

Please take this recommendation with a grain of salt, as I have not worn cosmetics in years (I have semi permanent makeup on my lips and nano brows). Many years ago I used to adore Chanel glossimer. And I also used to love wet n wild lipstick. And I read a newspaper article once that the head of Chanel beauty was married to the head of WnW, and speculation that there was not all that much difference. . .while this is certainly debatable, and I would bow to those cosmetic gurus who know better, WnW has many MLBB (my lips but better) shades, and this is one that came up. They used to have decent texture and staying power and no objectionable perfume scent. You might be able to find higher end lipsticks in this shade category by googling MLBB. And there are many lower end ones like NYX. Decades ago, I also loved a MLBB lippie by YSL. I found MAC lipsticks to be a bit drying and chalky when I wore them.

The color BOY may be a difficult shade to dupe but you may come close by just doing some research
It's hard to see the true color just from the swatch you shared but there are many drugstore brands that
get great reviews from their lippies including L'Oreal.
