The Only 4 Products I Use For Natural, Juicy, Nude Lips
by Audie Metcalf
I am a lip product obsessive. I own 42 lip glosses. I just counted them.
42.
I tell you this because I really, really want to earn your trust when I say that I have found the only four products I will ever use again for that daily, undone, natural, not-lipsticky, not-too-orange, not-too-pink, not-too-brown, nude lip. Which, incidentally, is a dragon I’ve been chasing for roughly, oh, 30 years.
Now, listen. You might have a lighter skin tone than I. You might have a darker skin tone. All of these product colors can be tweaked to achieve your dream, natural, juicy nude lip, too. I used to be a makeup artist in my former life. DM me and I’ll help you pick a color that works for you.
No, really. I will.
Shall we dive in?
And because you need to know what the hell all of this looks like before you just choose to trust me, here you go:
Does it look like some amazing lip color? No. Does this photo even call attention to my lips? No. Does it just look like I have effortlessly natural lips even though it took FOUR products to look almost like nothing? Yes. And that’s what makeup should be.
And now, a handy (PUNS) pic of all four products swatched on my hand so you can get a sense of them separately.
