The "Nude" Hunt: Finding Your Perfect Nude Lipstick



Finding the nude lipstick is really tough. What looks amazing on one person might look dull on another person. This is because the color nude is different for everyone. It is a personal thing. The color of your skin the color under your skin and the natural color of your lips all play a role.


Understand The Color Of Your Skin


To find your nude lipstick you need to know what color your skin is. Is your skin fair, medium or deep?


  • If you have skin you will look good with soft pink, peachy or beige nude lipsticks.


  • If you have skin you can try caramel, rosy brown or mauve shades.


  • If you have skin you will look great with rich cocoa, terracotta and warm brown nude lipsticks.


  • If you choose a lipstick that's too light your lips might look pale. If you choose one that's too dark it might be too much for your natural look.


Know The Color Under Your Skin


The color under your skin also affects how a lipstick looks on your lips.


  • If you have undertones, which means you have pink or blue colors under your skin you will look good with rosy or berry-toned nude lipsticks.


  • If you have undertones, which means you have yellow or golden colors under your skin you will look good with peachy or brown nude lipsticks.


  • If you have undertones you can wear many different kinds of nude lipsticks.


Here is a quick way to know what undertones you have: look at the color of the veins on your skin. If they are blue you have undertones and if they are green you have warm undertones.


Match The Color Of Your Lips


The natural color of your lips also affects how a nude lipstick looks.


  • If your lips are naturally darker you should choose a lipstick that's a little bit darker too so your lips do not look gray.


  • If your lips are naturally lighter you can wear lipsticks.


Choose The Kind Of Finish


The kind of finish on your lipstick also matters.


  • You can have a matte finish, which's bold and modern but it can dry out your lips.


  • You can have a satin finish, which's comfortable and makes your lips look natural.


  • You can have a finish, which makes your lips look full and is great for everyday wear.


Try It Before You Buy It


You should always try a lipstick on your lips before you buy it not on your hand. The lighting and the color of your skin can make the lipstick look different. If you are buying online you should look at reviews and pictures of people with skin like yours.


Good Advice


You should wear your lipstick with a lip liner that is a little bit darker so your lips look defined and do not look washed out. This also makes your lips look fuller and more interesting.


Finding your lipstick might take some time but when you find it you will love it and wear it all the time for casual days and for special occasions.
