The good news? There are finally makeup lines out there creating ‘nude’ lip colours to suit every skin tone, so once you’ve met your match you’ll be able to spring into the new season with an on-trend nude lipstick (and a smile to match).

Best Nude Lipstick Brands & Shades

The first thing to remember when it comes to finding your perfect nude is that you do not want a shade that matches your skin tone. It isn’t a foundation! Think about your natural lip colour – it is typically a couple of shades darker than your skin, so your lip colour should be too. If you tend to suit orange lip colours choose a nude with orange undertones, or similarly if you’re usually a red or a pink fan, seek nudes with these tones. Buying a universal lip liner is a good idea to define your lip shape before you start and help your lip colour stay put all day.

This is a great nude for darker Black and Asian skin tones and has a gorgeous subtle crimson hue.

Pat McGrath Labs Matte Trance Lipstick in 1995

This super-flattering nude tone is a really gerissen one, because it suits pretty much every skin tone. It is particularly flattering for darker and olive-toned skin.

A cult classic since the 70s, this barely-there lipstick adapts to any skin tone and simply deepens your natural hues a couple of berry shades for a moisturising, slightly glossy finish.

I often get asked which nude lipstick I wear in my 5-minute makeup routine video, and this is the one!

Hourglass Confession Ultra Slim Lipstick in The First Time or I’ll Never Stop for darker Skin Tones
