For the past month or so I’ve been wearing nothing but nude
lipsticks and I seem to always gravitate towards the same five. These are the
perfect my-lips-but-better shades!
A recent purchase that I love is the Kate by Rimmel nude
lipstick in #45. The Kate line is my favorite drugstore lipstick so I was
stoked when I saw that my local drugstore finally had their nude collection in
stock! These have been out in the UK for a while but I believe they were just
recently launched in the US, so keep your eyes out for them! There are a large
range of nude shades but I went with #45, a dusty mauvy brown shade (great
description, I know). The lipstick is so creamy and pigmented, for around $5.00
you can’t go wrong.
For a nude lipstick that is more on the pink side, MAC Hue
is the perfect shade. It isn’t quite as pink as Creme Cup or Angel, but it is
still a bit pinker than my natural lips. This is a glaze lipstick so it
provides a nice sheer finish on the lips.
A liquid lipstick I’ve been loving lately is the Tarte
Tarteist Lip Paint in the shade Namaste. The formula of this is so nice, I even
prefer it over my Stila Stay All Day liquid lipstick! This one is trickier to
apply than a regular lipstick, but it stays put for hours and has a lovely
matte finish. I’m obsessed.
The darkest nude that I’ve included is Mary Kay Signature
lipstick in Apricot Glaze. This has been a favorite of mine for a few years now
because it’s so nicely pigmented and has a velvety formula with a subtle
shimmer. If your lips are naturally darker or more brown-toned, this would be a
great nude for you!
My final pick is the Nyx Butter Lipstick in the shade Snow
Cap. This is similar to Hue but less pink and it is so easy to throw this on
and go! This lipstick can be applied sheer or you can build it up to show the
color more. With a nice glossy, creamy finish this is a great choice that is
suitable for a huge variety of skin tones.
What are your favorite nude lipsticks?

I really like it! It's a bit of a pain to apply (like all liquid lispticks) but the color is incredible x
DeleteGreat picks, I love the Rimmel Kate #45 it was my fave out of the collection. My fave nude and go to shade would have to be Brave from MAC.
