[...] AfroBella.com: The perfect nude should match your skin tone almost perfectly, covering over any slight discoloration your lips may have. A touch of shimmer or gloss amps up the look, but subtle beauty is the watchword. How can you tell that you’ve found your perfect nude? If you try it on the back of your hand, it should almost completely disappear, leaving only slight, pretty shine to let you know where it is. The perfect “nude” lippie for a brown skinned bella might be a warm rose pink, it might be bronze, it might even be a plum or berry, or a deep, fabulous brown. [...]

I swear by Revlon Colorstay Overtime Lipcolor in True Chocolate, topped by Rimmel Stay Glossy Lipgloss in Nonstop Glamour….very natural.

Bourjois 3D Effet Lipgloss in 03 works perfectly for me, not too pink and just the right amount of shimmer. Took me ages to find it but was worth it.

My favorite nude lip color that works for me is Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Mink then Top it off The Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Nude Lustre. Also I find that MAC’s Viva Glam 2 lipstick with Victoria’s Secret Lip Pencil in Foxy Brown and The Body Shop’s Honey Bronze lip gloss in Honey Beige (the lipgloss was limited edition)on top after I blended the lipstick and pencil together.

haven’t found one yet I’m still looking. my lips have a habit of bringing out red dyes and makin any lipstick with red in it extra red. I would love if someone would be a cooler brown tone that’s blue based instead of red!!

I couldn’t agree more with Dale’s comment. Their skin tone and their lip colour are almost the wrong way round. Or they’ve gone for nude lips that match their natural skin tone but forgotten to take into account the fact that they’ve turned themselves mahogany with fake tan!

i hate (and i mean with a passion) the girls who show up to clubs with lips lighter than their (natural or not) tanning colour. it actually puts me off. there is no way to look around the fact that they look wrong, every time i look at their faces i see failure to look ‘naked’ or ‘natural’ and instead i see the makeup and nothing but. i know it was raining tonight, but i dont think anyone was cold enough for their lips to lose all colour! what happened to the good kind of lip colour, or natural with lipgloss. i dont want my girlfriend to look like she is dying/dead!
