Ahh, the nude lip. Any lipstick lovers like myself will have a small rather large collection of nude lippies that compliment different makeup looks and outings. I've never been a fan of the 'concealer lip' - MAC Fleshpot I'm looking at you- so my nude lipsticks tend to be more pink, peach or brown toned. The ease and simplicity of a nude lip can never be overestimated and today I thought I'd share my three favourites.
From L-R: Adore U, Creme Cup and Strawberry Shortcake.
Strawberry Shortcake by Revlon
First up we have the Revlon lip butter in Strawberry Shortcake*, more of a pink than a nude but I let it fall into this category all the same. I would say this is quite a blue toned, makes your teeth look whiter, kind of lipstick- always a bonus! The whole Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter range are extremely moisturising and comfortable to wear whilst packing medium pigmentation and easy application. Yep, Strawberry Shortcake ticks every box!
Adore U by Clinique
When someone says Clinique, lipstick isn't usually my first thought. Great skincare and bottom lash mascara yes, but lipstick? No. However that all changed when I tried Adore U from the Colour Surge Butter Shine lipstick range (what a mouthful). This is a gold-y, brown-y toned nude with shimmer, not something I usually go for but does translate well on the lips. Perfect with a smokey eye and fair skin, Adore U lands pretty highly on my nude lippie rankings.
Available from Clinique.
Creme cup by MAC
Last but not least is perhaps one of the most highly talked about nude lipsticks in the blogging world, Creme Cup. One of MAC's Cremesheen formulas, this provides a subtle hint of pink whilst keeping your lips hydrated and is great for day to day lipstick wearing. I've been swiping it non stop since buying it only a couple of weeks ago and it has quickly become one of my favourite lipsticks (and that's saying something)!
Available from the MAC Website.
I hope you're all enjoying your weekend! What are your favourite nude lipsticks?
