Start by looking at your undertone. If your skin leans cool, opt for pink or mauve nudes. Warmer undertones tend to suit peach or caramel shades. Choosing a nude that’s slightly deeper than your natural lip colour can help add dimension.
Nude lipstick pairs best with subtle definition. Use a lip liner that matches your natural lip tone to shape your lips, then apply your lipstick for a soft, polished finish. Pair with a defined eye or glowing skin to balance the look.
