Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??


what lipsticks do u use exactly?

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

That depends on how sanwali you are…If you are really brown i dont think peachy lips would suit…To me it doesnt and im sanwali!

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

I kinda have to agree with Jolie here. I find nude lipstick makes me look washed out, unless it's accompanied by smokey-type eyes. I find it looks even better if I have some sort of colour on my cheeks as well. I use "Hug me" by Mac, which I absolutely love! I also find that pinkish tones are a little more forgiving than true beiges (at least on me.)

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

Okay I admit that's hwat I was under the impression of...that nude is a beige/brown that's supposed to suit your skin tone...NOT the natural color of your lips...

the only "nude" i have is Mac's velvet teddy and I was looking thru my pics...it looks a little peachy pink on me...but I think it looks nice. If I'm wearing the lipcolor alone, I'll mix it with another lipstick or gloss tho.

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

i totally forgot i had a nude liptsick wich i think would be perfect for desi skin tones, it's called Nude Almond by Estee Lauder (it's a Pure color gloss stick) i wore it yesterday i forgot how pretty it was !

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

In my opinion not many desis suit nude lips. Some white girls look horrible too. I'm fair and I don't think I suit some nude colours. They make me look like a ghost. I'm talking about the beigey nude lipcticks btw.

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

okay all you girls complaining :D if you have yellowish undertones and want a nude lipstick:

Get Josie Maran's argan infused lipstick in "birthday suit" it is very clsoe to a nude and looks great with eyeliner and blush.

it is no longer sold at sephora, but it is on her website. and i love it myself. it is very very nice, but again you need the yellowish undertones. you can couple it with a pinker lipstick underneath and apply this on top or put foundation on your lips (just like your face) and then put it on top.

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

you are so right, I think its harder for ppl with yellow undertones such as desi girls to pull of the nude lipstick...thanks for the lipstick suggestion ill go check it out...

nude lipsticks look soo nice on arab/persian girls though, they usually have yellow undertones too...and they have dark hair like us..??

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

hmm what i like doing sometimes is i take a beigish neutral shade of lipliner but it's not too pale, and i put some lip balm on top, so not only i get the "as if i'm not wearing lipstick effect" and yet it defines my lips

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

ok this pic is tinnyyyy but here are some of the nude lip colours i do on sanwali skin

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

inspiron you would really pull off the birthday suit one!!!! try to get it whenever you want a new lipstick:D(from her website, you dont want a fake)

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

I just checked and she doesnt deliver to the uk :naak:

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

Is it me or do nude colors look the best on fuller lips?

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??

This is a gorgeous look.. I see a lot of Iranian girls with the smokey eyes + nude lips as well (but often plumped right up)..

Re: Nude Lipsticks make you Look Darker??
