Not something I would recommend you use without a lip base/primer to blot out the color of your lips and fill in cracks. It's not as richly pigmented as Pink Pout, so if you have pigmented lips, this may look streaky even with multiple layers. Smoky Peach is a peachy nude that's oddly not that matte it has a bit of satin finish.
22 terra.don’t exactly have words to describe the colour, but i will use it and send you an appropriate mail soon. haven’t tried matte, but i have the super lustrous one.
Black or purple eyeshadow and pink blushes will make it appear pinker, more alive. and i told you revlon’s lipsticks are amazing totally comparable to mac at a much lesser price. It's a dupe of the Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Supreme Matte Lipstick in M PK 335! They're almost the same except Shu has a better texture (it's silicone-based) and lasting power, but hey, I suppose that's where the extra ~P800 went.Īs with Shu's PK 335, Pink Pout is better worn with dark eye makeup so that it won't wash out morena skin. I have Pink Pout, a blue-based baby pink that looks lavender on my medium yellow skintone. They're also not for lips with darker rims because they might not adhere properly. It looks nice when layered but if you have flaky lips, well, you should skip it. They just roll off in fine flakes.Īnyway, I like the smooth texture and pigmentation of the Revlon mattes. It didn't knock my socks off, but it might be because I've been hounded by flaky lips these past few weeks! It's weird because my lips aren't dry to begin with. I also recently got to try the Revlon Super Lustrous Matte Lipstick (P575). I would call it a prettifying lipstick - we all need one in our kit. I wont say it's an MLBB because it doesn't have a lot of brown in it it's just a great pink that doesn't clash with skin, whether it's fair or dark. It's a creamy warm-toned pink that can be worn with literally anything. It's got a 4.2/5 rating at Makeupalleyafter 159 reviews! That's quite an achievement. Pink in the Afternoon is one of those shades that are universally loved. This is in the same cult level as Fire & Ice. Dorian Leigh, one of the world's first supermodels, wore it in an iconic ad. From what I understand, Cherries is a classic Revlon lipstick that was launched in 1953. It's a bright blue-based red that looks like fuchsia on me in certain lighting. On to the swatches! Cherries in the Snow is a fantastic, complex color.
Just remember to wear lip balm beforehand because they dry up pretty quickly (2 hours) although the color stays on. They have a rich, moisturizing texture, a full-bodied cream finish, and awesome pigmentation to top it off! I'll say it - they can rival high-end lipsticks from MAC, Makeup Forever, and other expensive brands. If you're ready to glam up and want to cut down on browsing time, here are the 20 best nude lipsticks for dark skin.Revlon Super Lustrous Creme Lipsticks (P450) never let me down.
"Nude is going to look barely there or slightly lighter than your skin tone," says Crimson, whereas a neutral tone might be a deep color, like purple, but works well with your skin tone without being too bright or bold. He recommends going for shades of medium brown or chocolate.īefore you start shopping for nudes, Crimson also says it's important to determine whether you really want a nude or neutral lip, as the two get confused often. Crimson says it can help define the shape of the lip and warm up the edges of the lips to make the nude liner more wearable. But a little liner doesn't hurt if you're up for it. "You don’t necessarily need liner if you just saturate the color in the center of your lip and press to disperse and use your natural lip line," says Crimson. To prevent the washed out look, avoid going too pale or cool, since that can be a a recipe for a chalky-looking effect that no one will be excited about, says Crimson.Īlso, remember that lip liner is optional. "Hues that have a touch of yellow or red in their undertone will make for an easier time finding the right shade of nude to match your skins undertone."
So, to save you from making the same mistake, here are a few tips for shopping for nude lipsticks for dark skin.įirst, you should reach for warmer shades of nude, says AJ Crimson, celebrity makeup artist and founder of AJ Crimson Beauty. I've ordered way too many lipsticks that gave me a washed out–even chapped–lip look, and not the natural glam I was hoping for. Nude lipsticks play up your best facial features without requiring the maintenance a bold lip does (eeek, all that smudging).īut, if your skin is darker like mine, finding the perfect nude lipstick can be a pain. Bold lips are known for stealing the show, but the perfect nude lipstick can do the same.
