You might also try the Constant Color Lip Creme in Cocoa Beach, which is a similar brown tone, but it's more of a gloss applicator with a shimmer..but stays on and looks like a stick.

I also found a Beige 305 in Full Coverage...

Thanks Stephanie, I'll check out those colors. My guess is, I'm being a perfectionist and want the EXACT same thing and nothing measures up! I've got a gazillion tubes from every label and some are close. But I want the cigar! I must get better at compromise!

LOL Understandable. Your best bet would either be (gulp) Ebay.. which is technically illegal in the world of MK... or a consultant who has been selling since back before Suede was discontinued, who might have some left in stock. Discontinued products stink for those who fall in love with them....
