The Nude Lip: Create the Look Yourself!

Sure, ladies, we love our red, pink, and purple lip colors, but there's a time for a festive and fun fuschia and a time for a classic and chic nude.

A nude lip is a timeless and elegant addition to any girl's makeup routine. It provides a touch of effortless charm, with a youthful allure.
Perfect for a smokey eye, to provide a balance,
or just as cute with simply blush and mascara.

However you wear it, you can't go wrong!



Of course, you may be wondering where to start to figure out which shade should you pick up from the MAC counter or the drug store. Here's a guide, just for you, courtesy of  styleblazer.com. Thank me later :)





If your complexion is close to Nia Long’s, try MAC Lipstick in Siss, $15.







If your complexion is close to Keke Palmer’s, try Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Hazelnut, $7.19.






If your complexion is close to Estelle’s, try Maybelline
ColorSensational in 380 Bean There, $7.49.




If your complexion is close to Camille Winbush’s, try Lancome Rouge in Love Lipstick in Sultry Simplicity, $25.








You don't have to wait until tomorrow to try your shade, Khisses! Until you get to the stores, you can do a natural nude lip in 3 simple steps with what you have RIGHT NOW !


 
 All you need is your
shade of foundation and
a clear/shear lip gloss.
  
  
1. After applying foundation to the face, apply a small amount of foundation to the lips.







2. Apply the rest of your makeup as usual.
(blush, mascara, ect.)









3.Apply the desired amount of lipgloss on top & VOILA!
You've got a nude lip!

*For that exta umph, I like to dab a little blush on top of the gloss with my finger.

*This picture doesn't give it enough justice by the way! :)









I will be purchasing Revlon Hazelnut, MAC Spirit, and MAC Fresh Brew in the near future and will do reviews for ya, khisses! Stay Tuned !
