Find Your Perfect Nude Lip

Nude lips, nude beach, nude pantyhose, Tobias Fuenke never nude-sorry, just confusing the search engines there. Don’t blush, this post is about the quintessential nude lip and how to find the right shade for your skin tone!

I want to first talk about what a “nude” lip really means. Nude, meaning naked would indicate that a nude lip is the natural color of your lips, sans product. No one’s natural lip color is pale tan. My theory on nude lips might be a little different but I’ve just seen the “mouth-erasing” tans go off course too many times.
So, I set out to find out why those nudes were going so wrong. What I concluded is this: you almost always need your nude to be either a hint peachy or pink to be flattering and un-corpse-like. If you are a darker-skinned babe, you can actually rock out those chocolate shades that so many can’t!

Since I’m a definite yellow undertone, when I wear a color that is too cool-toned pink, it clashes with my warm undertone and looks garish rather than subtle. If you have a pink undertone, a peachy nude will read orange or even brownish on you. Can y’all dig it? WE CAN DIG IT!
