Perfect nude lips for NW 40-55

[BronzedVampy]

Here another one nude I love..Bobby Brown Shimmer Brick in Beige..I hate to use lipliner, but some girls can make it look fantastic with nude liner.

I've found another nude lip for me which is Jellybabe Lipgelee. Wonderful. I just got it this past weekend and love it!

I dont even have to use lipliner etc.

I love Honeyflower l/s, too. I'm NC42-43. I line it with Cushy (cremestick liner). I second Beaux l/g on top. I also like Instant Gold for paler and slightly more neutral metallic shine or Revealing for warm-neutral non-metallic shine. Moonbathe l/g is really pretty, too, for a very warm summer nude look.

Another everyday natural lip look I could not live without is Cushy l/l with L'Oreal HIP lipstick in Charming. I like to put a little Revealing over that, too, for extra shine.

I mentioned Moonbathe before. I think it's a great one to have in your collection for wearing alone with smoky or bright eyes. I'm always singing its praises

because, although it's quite sheer, it adds just enough warmth to my lips. My bottom lip is pinker than the top, and sheer glosses alone often don't even them up enough for me, but Moonbathe gets the job done.

I like wearing jellybabe on natural/light makeup days...and almost always wear it over Oak Lipliner. I should have said I wear all my neutral, among many other lipsticks--FreshBrew, Freckletone, High Tea, Sandy B, Half n Half--over Oak l/l...It's a very natural looking color.

Mad Cap is awesome for a nude lip. I love it. Just change up the liner to suit your tastes. I still haven't found one I really like.

I LOVE this thread!!!

I actually have several lipsticks that create the perfect nude look. There are so many different kinds of nudes that it is hard to find just one. The best thing you can do for a nude look though is to make sure the coloration on your lips is even and smooth (lip pencils).

My favorite nude lip pencils is Hodgepodge.

I actually have two "nudish" lipsticks though:
Chintz (a frost that is slightly lighter than my skin tone)
Fetish (a redder lipped kind of nude)

Glosses are great for nude lips once you have the base down because most of them are transparent.

When trying on nude colors though I have to look out for my upper lip because it is so much darker than my lower lip. I tried on some colors that looked wonderful on my lower lip, but when they're on my upper lip they just look ashy and chalky.

Hi, I'm NC50 and I find that Mally Beauty Lipgloss in BSexy is to die for!! No shimmer and it really lives up to its name. You even get a invisible lipfence with it (Which has made its way into my fave and most used products) You can get it from qvc. If you're trying to stick with MAC, try beau, oh baby, or instant gold.

Isn't that the gloss she created for Beyonce? I have heard her (Mally) say how popular the color is.

Hey, I'm NC42 and I second Madcap also. Im a nude fanatic. Nars as some great nude colors. I have Jubeillie (something like that) from Mac. Hugme (but that might be too pinkish for you).

I am NC 50 and like Freckle lipstick with clear lip glass over it, Shock-o-Late, Sinnamon, and Oh Baby for nude lips.
Outside of MAC, my absolute favorite nude lip is by NARS: Butterfield 8.

I don't know if anyone already mentioned this one but MAC's Shitaki (Glaze Lipstick) is a pretty color if you are considering a nude lip. It's very light weight and gives just a hint of a bronze/brown color. I got it the other day on a whim and was very pleased!

I don't know if anyone already mentioned this one but MAC's Glaze Lipstick in Shitaki is a nice neutral bronze/brown. I got the other day on a whim and loved it! I usually don't do too much lipstick just because of the stickiness but this formula has a nice texture!
