Okay, so I have a confession to make: I love lipsticks, especially nude lipsticks to be exact. And as you keep reading, you’ll come to also learn that I love matte lip products the most, but I do have a few favorite glosses that I keep in my stash too. Every now and again, I’ll rock a bold, bright color on my lips, but normally I stick to my classic nudes. I love the “your lips but better” look, aka the perfect nude lip. So today, I’m sharing all of the tea on nude lippies and showing you my favorites at the moment.
Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb in Fenty Glow
When this gloss launched, I knew I had to have it! It’s the perfect gloss consistency without the stickiness to it. It has a little bit of sparkle that gives your lips the look of being fuller and plump. You can’t feel the sparkles at all by the way! It also tastes and smells like vanilla aka heaven. This product comes in three other shades, but Fenty Glow is the perfect rose nude for anyone’s skin tone.
Kat Von D Studded Kiss Crème Lipstick in Lolita II
This one is literally my absolute go-to for any Instagram or blog shoot that I’m doing. It’s super creamy and just slides right onto the lips with no issues. It’s also long wearing, and I’m obsessed with the satin-matte formula. My favorite nude is the shade, Lolita II, because it’s the perfect terra cotta nude color for my skin tone . It’s more of a pink nude, than a brown nude, but I’m still absolutely obsessed with it.
Essence Longlasting Lipstick in Cool Nude
Essence is one of those brands that’s overlooked regularly because of how cheap the products are. But just because the prices are low doesn’t mean the quality is too. I bought this lipstick on a whim one day when I was shopping at Ulta, and I haven’t looked back since. The color “Cool Nude” is exactly what the name says that it’s a cool-town brown, slightly pink nude. It’s a gorgeous color!
Flower Beauty Mix n Matte Lip Duo in Bronze Envy
I’m obsessed with this combo product because for 1) the color is stunning and 2) you get a lipstick and a matching gloss for one price. The color that I have is Bronze Envy which is a deeper brown/pink nude. The lipstick side is a creamy matte while the gloss is a pearlized gloss that is not sticky. Both products are comfortable on the lips and last all day long.
NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Zurich and Stockholm
The soft matte lip creams from NYXs have been around forever it seems. They really took the world by storm with the color Copenhagen, which is a deep matte plum color. While that color is stunning, it’s unfortunately not a nude color. The nude colors that I’ve been loving are Zurich and Stockholm. The shade Zurich is a matte muted rose color, and Stockholm is a mid-tone beige pink color. The best part about the Soft Matte Lip Cream line is that they come in 36 other shades, so you’re bound to find the perfect nude for your skin color and maybe a few others to add to your cart.
NYX Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick in Sandstorm
I’ve also been loving the Liquid Suede Cream Lipsticks by NYX and specifically the color, Sandstorm. It’s a rich brown nude color that fits a lot of skin tones. This formula does dry down to a matte finish and once it sets, you won’t have to worry about it budging all day. On the website it says that this formula is also waterproof, but I’ve haven’t actually tested that theory. So I would say be careful if you’re attempting to take a swim with this lippie on. The Liquid Suede Cream Lipsticks come in 24 shades from your brown nudes to your bright corals and pinks, so you’re bound to find something that you like.
