Gloss coral lipsticks

Coral lipsticks are light, saturated shades between red, pink and orange, the colours of coral, watermelon, peach and salmon. They sit on the warm side of red and read bright and lively. A coral closer to red looks like a light warm red, while one closer to orange looks peachier and more golden. A gloss finish is shiny and wet-looking, and colour payoff ranges from sheer to intense depending on the formula. A sheer gloss can read lighter and more translucent on the lips than its hex value, while a pigmented gloss stays close to it and adds strong shine.
