Yep... I was going to recommend a color I got by Revlon that is one of my all-time favorites. The color name is Nude, and it's Timeliner for Lips. It goes on very smooth, and it's not a retractable applicator, just a pencil, but a very soft pencil. I use this color with a clear lip gloss over the top for a nice even look to my lips, but it doesn't leave me looking made-up. Hope this helps, and good luck finding a color you really like!
