High end to affordable- these are my top
picks for nude lipsticks!
$18
This nude lipstick is one of the lightest of my favorites. If you have a darker completion this lipstick may look like foundation lips or make you look ashy BUT if you have a fair to light skin tone this will work out great!
If you want to add some dimension to your nude lip you can also add this a little in the center to enhance your lips.

I actually got this one at TJ MAXX for $7.99, its a pretty common shade to find! This again is one of the lighter nudes so for darker skin tones, this aint' it! However, it is another color to pop right in the center to enhance the shape and size of your lips or pair with a darker liner for that 90's look!

This pinky mauve nude is perfect for both lighter skin tones and medium skin tones. For deeper skin tones this color would look really good popped right in the center, however because its on the lighter end it could look a little weird just by itself.

This is the perfect orange undertone nude for spring and summer. It looks good on all skin tones depending on your preference. If you have deep to deep dark skin and you are not a fan of a lighter nude then this isn't the color for you. BUT more are coming!

This shade is the perfect nude for just about anyone. On lighter skin tones such as myself it's a nice brick nude with hints of orange and red and on deeper skin tones it gives a little bit of a pinky nude vibe!

This is also a pretty common shade to find at TJ MAXX for $7.99, that's where I found mine! Why pay full price when you can get it for more than half off!? This nude is a pure nude meaning it doesn't have more red or orange undertones, it's more like a dark taupe. It's a little darker for light skin tones but still looks good, and its a true nude for deep skin tones, while being a pinky nude for deep dark skin tones.

Now the product picture is no where NEAR what this color actually looks like on the skin. Although it is a little more on the pink side of nude this color is a taupe/pink, meaning it's taupe with some pink undertones. It's a nice fall/winter nude on lighter skin tones because it will be a little darker, however on medium to deep skin tones this shade will be a flush toned nude for you.

This is one of those colors where if you have very fair skin like me it's going to wash you out a little but paired with the right makeup look- it will look amazing! For medium to deep skin tones this would be a great nude tone for you and for deep dark skin tones this color would be about a shade lighter than a true nude for you!

This is more on the purple side of nudes. On fair skin it's going to be semi-dark so if that's not your style in a nude then I would skip this one. On medium skin tones it's going to give you a purplish pink nude hue to your lips that looks really good for fall and winter and for deep to deep dark skin tones this shade might look like a light pink/purple mix. If you like that look then I would say go for it but for deep dark skin tones I would probably suggest to skip this shade or pair it with a darker lip liner.

Now this shade is a true taupe with grey slate undertones. Personally for me I love that look with a bold smokey eye but if you have fair skin it could wash you out. Medium skin tones shouldn't have a problem with this color, although it may look very similar to your own skin tone and deep to deep dark skin tones this shade would look very ashy grey.

Now this one is a nude gloss. I suggest wearing this over a lipstick although you can wear it by itself, I personally don't like to. Over top of your lipstick it's a semi sticky gloss but it does slightly plump your lips making them look fuller. I got mine at TJ MAXX for $5.99 so for sure keep a look out at your local TJ MAXX to get those deals!

This BY FAR has to be one of the most comfortable glosses I have ever worn in my life! It's not sticky, it hydrates your lips and is long lasting. Wear it by itself for a little sheen and shine or wear over a lipstick to give that liquid matte lip the
hydration that it desperately needs!
