Nude Liquid Lipsticks for Brown Skin
Finding a good nude lip is hard work. I don’t think people who don’t wear makeup realize just how difficult it can be sometimes. Finding the perfect nude is literally a mix of rocket science, color theory and crossed fingers. It’s a stressful situation for sure. It took me a few years to really figure out what works for me but I’ve got a good grip on what kinda colors work best for me–including nudes. I’ve bought a ton of different nudes trying to find a good match for my brown skin. Some were too pale for even a lip liner to save and others just looked weird.
But I’ve managed to find a ton of really great nudes that work really well with my brown skin. I usually gravitate towards deeper more brown toned nudes but sometimes I like to venture off and try lighter nudes. The brown nudes are definitely easier to wear but the lighter nudes stand out a little more. Sometimes when I wear brown nudes it can look a little too natural. It’s good when I wear super smoky looks that won’t hold up against a bold lip. However, when I’m just playing with a little color, I like to reach for a lighter nude and a good lip liner. Variety is a good thing to have when it comes to nudes. It’s like having a nude lip wardrobe for every look you can think of.
I still love the feel of a good ol’ regular lipstick but liquid lipstick wears much longer so I’ve been reaching for them a lot. I have a few lighter nude liquid lipsticks that I like to grab when my eyes are very bold. I normally wear them with a deep brown or deep burgundy. Some of my favorite lighter nude liquid lipsticks include:
- Too Faced Cool Girl Melted Matte Lipstick warm beige
- Too Faced Sell Out Melted Matte Lipstick light rosy beige
- Too Faced Chocolate Honey Melted Lipstick caramel beige
Other times I like a deeper nude that requires a little less effort. I don’t necessarily need a lip liner with them so I can just slip them on and go with ease. Some of my favorite deep nude liquid lipsticks include:
- Anastasia Beverly Hills Ashton Liquid Lipstick warm tan beige
- ColourPop Tansy Ultra Satin Lip warm yellow brown
- ColourPop Limbo Ultra Matte Lip warm chocolate brown
- NYX Downtown Beauty Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick soft chocolate brown
