Nude Lips!


Hello everyone! 
So today I had a play around with some of my nude lipsticks 
that I got from Maybelline.  
Just a disclaimer before I begin – I don’t wear nude lipsticks. I just can’t get it to look nice on my skin tone. But if you do want to try nude lipsticks check out Jackie Aina's video and BeautybyJJ who explain nude lipsticks for WOC (Women of Colour) so well.

So the first lippy I tried on was Maybelline’s Color Sensational 
in the shade Honey Beige. 
This lipstick was the ‘brownest’ of the batch. 
The colour does look okay but because of my darker lips, 
it throws the colour off a little bit.

Maybelline ColorSensation - Honey Beige 


'Lust for Blush' looks very similar to 'Honey Beige'. This lipstick has a great formula and smells really nice. I’m still not to sure if the colour looks good on me though.


Maybelline Color Whisper - Lust for Blush


When (WOC) wear nude lipstick a lip liner is a must! I’ve got this lip liner from Ofra in one of my Lip Monthly bags. And this Maybelline Elixir lip-gloss 
paired together = a wearable colour.

Ofra Lipliner - Silk


‘Warm me up’ was the last colour I tried on and it was by far the ‘pinkist’ in terms of colour however, it didn’t compliment me skin tone. The lipstick to me seemed like it dulled my makeup. 
I also used the lipliner with this lipstick as well, to try and (sort of) prevent it looking like a hot mess.

Which lippy do you think looked the best?
What do you guys think of nude lipsticks? It is a very hot trend right now.
Have a blessed week ahead. 

Until next time xx
