Nude Lipgloss?

Post by Oxana124 » Wed Sep 30, 2009 9:21 pm

I was just wondering if someone could recommend a nude lipgloss(a solid one, not the liquid kind) for me. Something that is on the lighter side, maybe slightly lighter than my lips, but not so light that it will make me look like I have no lips, lol. Maybe something sheer... preferably brownish tones rather than pink. I am very fair, and have golden undertones if that helps.
I have English Muffin from EDM, in case anyone knows that that looks like, and that seems to work for me, so maybe something similar?
Thanks so much for the help! :D

Hmm... Given that you'd prefer brown tones over pink, I'd suggest Centerfold or Nude Beach (if you want some shimmer). Maiden is a fantastic MLBB nude, but is probably pinker than what you are looking for...

How about Polished Pink? It's brownish with a little bit of gold...really pretty. We also have a ton of new colors coming out very very soon, and there are quite a few nudes. Bloom is good too, but it's more of a pure pink.

You always get lots of recommendations....... :mrgreen:

For a light nude wash with no pink, I'd get Centerfold or Mirage.

They are sheerer and a more pale 'lip color' brown than EM English Muffin.

Thank you for all the suggestions they were all very helpful!
I didn't realise Centerfold and Mirage were paler than English Muffin, because they look a little dark to me in skin swatches and English Muffin is like my skin color but sheer. But the little circular photo of Centerfold does look like it is the exact color I am looking for, so it was just the swatch throwing me off.
And that's exciting about more colors coming out! Can't wait! :)

I love nudes as well. For me the new vegan Mirage is the best nude. Centerfold looks very pink on me. Mirage is pale, but doesnt make you look washed out and very creamy! Love it! :D Can't wait to see the new nudes as well.

I'm the opposite--I'm looking for pink nude shade...But I want to wait and check out these new colors!

ETA: Ooh, just looked. Cultured may be exactly what I'm looking for!

I wondered if Oxana would like Rhapsody BL? It's so sheer that I'd almost get away with it, but not quite. It's got a hint of caramel-tan. (Not good on me, but if you like sheer with a hint of nude, it could work).

A *good* nude pink that really surprised me and is easy to wear is Aria Black Label. Double bonus that it's a black label. It's a MLBB. Hope that helps, Moon. :)

Thanks, Cupcake! That one's on my wish list, good to know that it might be what I'm looking for!

I love both Mirage and Polished Pink for brownish nudes. They are amazing!
