CURRENT FAVOURITE NUDE LIPS COMBO

From left to right - Ben Nye mocha rose lipstick & Revlon colorburst Sunbaked lipgloss

Hey there! As most of you might know, I love love love nude lips.A nude lip is hands down my daily go-to colour. As I have so many nude lip products in my collection; I try and switch it up as often as I can. I'm the type that sticks to what she likes, so as soon as I discover an amazing lipstick, I could wear it for a whole year and ignore everything else. Not good! So I try and mix it up a bit. I started using this revlon colorburst lip gloss last week and I am loving it. These 2 products give a slightly deep nude; so this combo might not be the best for those with fair skin, but it will work a treat on women of colour or if you ever get a tan. Both the lipstick and gloss are quite pigmented; I only swatched each product once in the picture above and as you see; great colour pay off. Also, this combination lasts for about 2 - 3 hours on me. I eat a lot, so most lip products don't last that long on my lips lol.

What is your favourite go to lip colour? Would love to know!

Ben Nye - mocha rose

Revlon colorburst lipgloss - sunbaked 044

CURRENT FAVOURITE DRUGSTORE NUDE LIPSTICKS (WOC FRIENDLY)

From left to right - Milani Teddy Bare 29, L'oreal Taffeta 233, Ben Nye Mocha Rose, Rimmel kate 08, Wet n Wild bare it all E902C

I am a HUGE fan of nude lipsticks. I tend to wear a nude lip on a daily basis and don't really reach for my pink lippies as much. These 5 are my current favourites and I love how creamy and moisturising they all are; with the exception of the Wet n wild Bare it all. This particular lipstick is very matte and pigmented but not that drying to that's a plus. Also, did I mention how affordable they all are?
I have been told by a few women of colour that they find it difficult to choose a suitable nude lipstick for their skin tone; these 5 are a great pick and also, I find lining my lips with a dark brown lipliner is the perfect way to get any lipstick to work on your skin tone. Please don't opt for a light nude lipstick without a brown lip liner, I'M BEGGING YOU lol.

Both the Milani Teddy Bare and Wet n wild Bare it all are mainly sold in the states, but you can easily buy them from online outlets and ebay sellers.
