In case you have a deep warm complexion and keep asking yourself, ‘which lipstick color suits me,’ we are more than happy to help you out. Makeup artists recommend going for sheer gloss. If you are an African American, then when it comes to makeup, your aim is to play with shadows and highlights in order to develop definition. This strategy will ensure that your makeup flatters you the most. For instance, a shade of nude that is lighter than the complexion you have will make your face appear brighter, which will have quite a refreshing effect. Just stick to the glossy formula to look more natural.

When it comes to the olive complexion, we can differentiate several tones, and they are light olive, cool olive, and medium olive. Now let us talk about the ideal natural lip color enhancer for each of these complexions.

  • If your complexion is light olive, professional makeup artists advise you to go for lipstick in caramel-beige that is a bit darker, comparing to your complexion. And bear in mind that glossier formulae are more likely to play up that natural warmth of your skin tone.
  • Babes whose complexion is cool olive have much versatility available when choosing natural looking lipstick shades. However, there is one thing you need to ensure: the hue you pick shouldn’t make the lips disappear. So, it’s better to opt for either a lighter or a darker hue of nude, but not the one that matches your skin tone completely.
  • What about babes with a medium olive complexion? You should probably find a shade of nude with pinkish undertones, but it should be lighter, comparing to your complexion. Thus, the lipstick will kind of add some separation between your skin and your lips.

FAQ: Nude Lipstick

Is nude pink or brown?

Nude was termed after the skin of Western-European focused Caucasians because of its brownish-white tone. Due to the similarities in the blend of brown and white, it is often mistaken for beige. Nude is a popular color in beauty and fashion because of its discreet neutral tone.

What color lipstick makes yellow teeth look whiter?

Any blue- or purple-hued lipstick can assist to balance out the warmer, yellow tones in your teeth, making your smile whiter.

What to apply on lips before kissing?

Soft and flexible lips are ideal for kissing, so, the dead skin cells on your lips may need to be exfoliated. Rub your lips lightly with an old toothbrush after applying lip balm or even simply water. Consider your makeup as well.
