Hello Queens! Nude has been a huge makeup rave lately, so I decided to put together this post for anyone who may be eager to try a more neutral makeup look but find it difficult choosing the right lipstick colours.
Unfortunately people don`t know how hard it is to find just the shade of nude lipstick that will blend in with their skin tone and make their skin divine. Finding anything in flesh tone, be it leggings, underwear or lipstick is a challenge. First and foremost, nude lipstick is different from lip gloss. I see a lot of people wearing lip gloss and hash-tagging #Nudelips, they are not the same thing.
Here are some things to consider when choosing the right shade of nude lipstick for your skin colour;
1.Exfoliation – Dry and cracked lip and nude lipsticks (or another lipstick as a matter of fact ) is never a good idea. Make sure your lips are moistured and free of any dead skin before applying any kind of lip colour especially if you are using matte lipstick.
2.Cover up- Different people have different lip colours. If you have a strong lip colour naturally use a thin layer of your concealer under your lipstick to tone it down. The outer part of the lip are usually darker than the inner parts.To even this out use your concealer primer or foundation , applying either on your lips will create the perfect base for a nude lipstick.
3.A nude lipstick is the perfect opportunity to play up your eyes.A dark smokey eye will give you that dramatic look and will stand out with just the right nude lipstick. A popping hair colour is also a great accessory to a nude lip.
4.Keep a white teeth- Yes, we know that red lipstick can make your teeth look so white. In the same way, a pale lip colour can make your teeth appear yellowish, so make sure to polish those pearly whites or if you really want to shine try a teeth-whitening product which is very effective.
Finally, finding the perfect nude lipstick is harder than it sounds. Too dark, and you look like you`re trying to make brown lipstick happen. Too light and you start to resemble the living dead. I believe with the above tips, you can easily detect the perfect nude for your lips.
