Actually I have pale skin and wear a gold-toned lipstick which people say look's good on me but then it's not bright gold it's more of a copper sort of.
Very vivid Gold looks better on darker skins imho.
I think it's sexy and jazzy, but looks a lot better on darker skinned ladies. I'm far too pale to get away with wearing gold anything . It's rad though, if it looks good on you, wear it!
