Everyone wants to know, can I wear pink lipstick?
Makeup artists tell you it looks great, especially in the summer but here are some of my recommendations...
First, I'll tell you that I'm always looking for the “right” pink. It can be hard to find a pink tone that doesn’t look too “bubble gum” but that is still pretty and soft. I have found that by mixing a little bit of a bright pink and adding a flesh toned lip gloss, I get the right result.
I think for most Latinas with yellow skin undertones, it is best to stay away from frosty pinks and embrace those with more deep purple in them.
In the past, I have also used a MAC color (I believe it is called Skew but it might have been discontinued!) which I thought was perfect. Also, I recommend Chanel for pretty pink lipsticks and glosses.
Vincent Longo’s Kitty would be pretty on a lighter, ivory skin tone. It seems to me not to have enough blue which might make it more wearable for morenas.

YSL-4 has a beautiful texture, as I feel most of their lipsticks have.
It seems to be a bit bluer that Vincent’s but also a bit brighter. It is a fun color and would be a nice addition if you want to try out a semi-bright pink.

Shisheido-P16 is a great tone! It is a very pretty and wearable shade. It gives a woman the flexibility to make it funky by adding a bit of a shimmery lip gloss over it. Still, it can look professional and fashionable without the gloss.

Mary Kay's Nourishine Lip Gloss is also great. Goes on a little frosty but almost immediately turns into the prettiest most wearable pink.

Cheaper ones that still work are Cover Girl Triple Lipstick in Tutu, and Maybelline Wet Shine Lip Color in Mauvelous.
