Whether it's at the Met Gala or on our TikTok For You Page, pale lips are making a comeback. No longer are celebrities rocking a red lip; instead, many of them are opting for a nude, pale, or even no lip color.
With sheer lip oils trending for years, it's no wonder this is the next best thing in beauty. Let's just hope the dreaded concealer lips aren't returning, too.
Even in our everyday lives, many of us forget to put on a lip product, or we leave it until we're already on the go. So, while you could go completely bare, sometimes we need a little something to cushion our lips and give them that even tone and glossy look.
But what shades are best for you? We broke it down by undertone and skin tones, and recommended our favorites to make it easier for you.
When it comes to choosing the right shade of pale nude for you, the traditional makeup advice still holds. Figure out your understone.
Are you warm, cool, or neutral? If you're warm-toned, look for shades that have a little bit of yellow, gold, orange, or peach in the pigment. If you're cool-toned, your perfect shade will be those with a base of blue, purple, or pink pigment. For neutral tones, all shades and undertones work for you.
In lipsticks, undertones are easiest to detect in red shades. Nudes, on the other hand, are trickier. Still, it's not impossible. It's just a matter of training your eyes to detect the cool or warm tone under the pigment. If you're struggling, many shade names include a description with their specific undertone.
For those with a fair to light skin tone, most pink and nude shades work perfectly for you. It all depends on your taste! For those with a warm tone, a nude shade that has a bit of pink is recommended. For a cool-tone vibe, look for beige shades instead. Still, if all up to your preference. Just remember, for you, the lighter the better.
For those with a darker skin tone, it's a bit trickier. The undertone rules still apply, but you have to keep in mind how the color will translate on your lips.
Keep in mind pigmentation. Is the lip product bold or is it sheer? A light, pale color might be perfect if it's pigmented and you want a frosty look. But if it's not as pigmented, it might disappear completely on you. It depends on the look you're going for. In general, light brown beiges and pale mauves are highly recommended!
