This is a post on my favourite nudes... keeping it strictly lip product related of course. These are also my recommendations for those pale folk like myself. I am a massive fan of nude lips. I always try to be adventurous but then immediately change my mind. I was going to do my whole collection of nude lip products, but it is a little excessive and the post would probably be far too long. So, instead I have tried to narrow it down to my must haves. It's worth noting that I am very pale, even with tan on, I'm probably paler than most. So my 'nudes' are very light.
Kiko, Finish Line Lipstick, in Rosetto 01:
This Kiko Lipstick was a random spur of the moment purchase. There was a massive sale on so I decided to pick this one up. Out of the 4 shades, it is the most pink toned nude. This is a lipstick formula, which means it isn't as drying as a liquid lipstick. I reach for this one if I have no tan on and want a very light, pink based nude. I have tried to find this on the Kiko website but it doesn't seem to be available anymore! Darn!

NYX Lingerie, Baby Doll:
This is one a lot of people will have heard of. Colour wise, I think this is my favourite liquid lipstick that I own. The formula is quite drying, therefore I often mix it with another product, such as gloss or a lipstick. It is the darkest out of the 4 lip products featured here, but it is still very light. If you have a tanned complexion, this may be too light for you.

Mac Lipstick, Japanese Maple:
This has been an all time favourite of mine for many years. I love the formula of these lipsticks. They are moisturising and not drying in the slightest. Obviously, this means that they don't last as long, but I'd rather re-apply, then have dry lips. Again, this is a very pale nude, with peachy undertones. Therefore, not really suitable for those with dark skin, as it may look rather 'dead' looking. I always re-purchase this lipstick and probably will for a very long time! This lipstick works well with the NYX Lingerie featured above.
NYX, Soft Matte Lip Cream, Cairo:
This lip cream is not as long wearing and the Lingerie formula, however, it stays on longer than a regular lipstick. Although you need to put a few swipes of this one on, I prefer the formula as it is less drying. This is another peachy toned lip product, which again, is very very pale. It is also a bargain, which always helps!
What are your go to nude lip products?

NYX are awesome, especially considering the price! xx
DeleteI definitely want to try the nyx soft matte lip creams as well as the lingerai liquid lipsticks.
ReplyDeletewww.themakeupaficionado.com
They are really nice, not quite as full on as a liquid lipstick though! xx
DeleteI love nude lips so this post is perfect for me! MAC is definitely my fave lipstick brand so I'll have to give Japanese Maple a try next time I'm in duty free :)

It's really nice, I've repurchased it so many times. I have added in swatches so you can see the colours above and see what you think of it (I realised I forgot to add the photo in before - doh!) xx
DeleteI love your picks and I love your photos!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day,

Thanks very much, you too xx
DeleteI don't understand how I'm so pale, but look so unwell when I put on light nude lipsticks, but they look so good on you! xx

Hahaha I rock the 'dead' look xx
DeleteI've never tried anything from Kiko, and it's a shame you can't get that shade anymore! Lovely choices xx
ReplyDeleteHannah | luxuryblush
I know, it's so annoying! They have a huge range though and it's pretty cheap so might be worth looking for some similar items :) xx
DeleteThey are all amazing shades!

Love a good nude! x
DeleteI love the Lip Lingerie range, such a gorgeous collection of nudes x
ReplyDeleteTiffany Tales | Lifestyle & Beauty
Yeah the range is really pretty, I have a couple of them! I think I still slightly prefer normal lipstick formulas as I have dry lips though xx
DeletePretty colors, but waaaay to light for me. I prefer more dark nude colors :)
ReplyDeletecarolinasmakeuplife.blogspot.pt
True they are very pale! Not to everyone's taste :) xx
DeleteGreat nude collection! I used to love NYX lipsticks but since i tried the Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk i have been obsessed with it!
ReplyDeleteHelene // Beautiful Is My Attire
I'll have to give them a go! Hopefully I prefer NYX though due to the price differences 😂 Xx
DeleteI've got the NYX Lingerie in Baby Doll too and the first time I tried it the shade was weirdly unflattering on my skin tone, but then I tried it again and used my finger to blend it out and it looked so much nicer! Definitely a favourite of mine too!

I've found that works to help with the texture and cracking of the product too! Xx
