DIY The Best Nude Lipstick to Suit Your Skin Tone
Finding the best nude lipstick shade for your skin tone can be a mammoth task at times. From matching your undertone to making sure the colour doesn’t make you look sallow and washed out, finding a nice natural coloured lipstick can be exhausting. But don’t worry, we got your back! Here is how you can quickly DIY the best nude lipstick for your skin tone and save yourself some time.
Things to consider before creating DIY nude lipstick
Before you even start to make your own personal nude lipstick for your dusky skin or fair skin, you will need a base lipstick colour that you will work with. For that, you need to first understand your undertone.
• Depending on whether you have a warm, cool, or neutral undertone, the base colour of your lipstick can change.
• Another thing to keep in mind is your skin tone. A nude lipstick for a very pale or fair person will definitely not be the best nude lipstick for someone with a deep or dark skin tone. z
Once you have determined the perfect base lipstick shade, here is how you transform it to a
natural-coloured lipstick and make it into the perfect nude lipstick for your skin tone.
Step-by-step guide on DIY nude lipstick
Here’s how you can make the best nude lipstick shades for fair skin, dusky skin, and deep skin tones.
Step 1: Prep and prime your lips by exfoliating the dead skin and applying a nourishing lip balm. Try a moisturising lip balm on your lips and leave them feeling baby-soft.
Step 2: Apply a thin layer of liquid concealer or foundation on your lips to create a blank canvas for your nude lipstick. Blend it out using a brush or your fingers till you evenly coat your lips.
Step 3: Dot on your base lipstick colour and blend in. This will add a light wash of colour to your lips. Do not put on too many layers as you don’t want an intensely pigmented lip. Your aim is to create a natural colour lipstick that enhances your lip colour. The best nude lipstick shade is the one that gives you a “your lips but better” look and does not look heavily made up.
Step 4: This step is optional but you can add one more swipe of lip balm on top to keep your lips hydrated and voila! You just DIYed the best nude lipstick to suit your skin tone.
