Top five fave nude lipsticks (of the moment):
1. MAC: Myth (cliché, I know)
Many people find this lipstick too pale and it gives them a zombie look. However, if you are super pasty white like me, this is the lipstick for you! Note: This formula (Satin) can be drying, I recommend wearing a balm underneath, a gloss over top, or both.
I would say this is Myth's darker skinned cousin. Again, a Satin finish peachy-nude. However, I feel like it is more "work-appropriate" and less "stripper-pole-appropriate".
Similar to Myth, more pinky than peachy though. I find for some reason, this tends to give me the stripper/zombie look if I don't wear a gloss to tone it down.
4. Revlon Color Burst Lipstick: Soft Nude - This is a surprisingly awesome lipstick. It hydrates well, and has decent color payoff. I would compare the consistency to that of a MAC Lustre formula. The best part is the price! I think I got a two pack at Target for around $6. My one complaint is that it doesn't last as long as I would like it too.
5. MAC: Close To Real - Unfortunately, this was a limited edition shade that I got from CCO. It is basically the same color as Fleshpot, but since it is a Lustre rather than Satin finish, it is more moisturizing and sheer (thereby avoiding dead face).
