Bloggers, Actors & Creators Pick 10 Nude Lipsticks To Count On In 2022!

Saniya, a content creator from Bangalore, has been using Disguise Cosmetics' Nude Poet (available on LBB Shop) for sometime now. Apart from the fact that it's natural and cruelty-free, she loves that it does not dry her lips at all (although it gives off a very matte look). The colour pay off is super rich. This shade of nude has got burnt orange and pink undertones, which makes it a good choice for warmer skin tones.

Nayantara loves buying makeup. She is that someone her friends go to when they want sound advice on what makeup to invest in. Her pick? Primer + Matte from Lakme’s 9 to 5 range. Why? It’s long-lasting (upto 12 hours!) and perfect for those effortless ‘no make-up’ days. Not just that, it also goes perfectly with bold eye makeup. It’s a warm toned peachy nude color, with a hint of brown that’s best suited for medium and fair skin tones.

India Woods, a fashion model from Mumbai does not leave home without her favourite Rimmel London Moisture Renew lipstick in shade Notting Hill. It's the perfect shade of nude for day or night and it’s long lasting! If you have dry lips, this one is your best bet. It’s super moisturising and provides buildable coverage. This tint works well on lighter skin tones.

Zareen Khan is a Social Media Manager from Delhi, who does not like using makeup too much. When I asked her about her favourite nude shade, she jumped at the opportunity because that’s pretty much all she uses on her face. She carries around a peachy nude from Sonaturals. Mostly because it’s vegan and adds to her no-makeup look. She insists it’s mostly for her zoom calls now.

Tamanna Manan, an actor from Mumbai, has found her perfect MLBB (my lips but better) shade and she can’t stop gushing about it. The creamy formula ensures that the hydration is sealed in, and your lips remain moisturised all the time. There’s something about cool-toned lipsticks that bring a certain freshness to the face. This pinkish tint is better suited on lighter skin tones.

Manasi Shah believes when it comes to nude shades there is no one size fits all policy. These days, nude lipsticks can mean anything from taupes with hints of pinks to plummy browns. She is mattely in love with Nykaa’s Nude Pink Lip Crayon. Glides on effortlessly with a rich color pay-off and lasts long. If every lip crayon you have ever bought has ended up giving you a chalky finish, this one will definitely save the day.

Nakiya Fakhri, a beauty blogger from Kolkata uses Maybelline Superstay Ink Crayon in shade 20 as her go-to nude colour. True to its name, this shade stays on your lips no matter what you do! It’s the perfect everyday pink nude that can last you all day. Nakiya suggests you pair it with a transparent gloss to take your lip game up a notch.

Zainab Ilyas is a certified makeup artist from Chennai who believes in the power of minimal when it comes to makeup. Her go-to nude lipstick is from Forever52 (FT007 Tango). It’s a brown nude with a little hint of pink. This velvet matte lipstick is highly pigmented and glides easily on the lips without making it look dry or patchy. Zainab’s pro tip - If you go heavy with eye makeup, use this shade to even out your whole look.

Shaoni Biswas, a mum of two does not care much about makeup on most days but if there is one thing she will not forget to carry in her diaper bag it is the Naked Lipstick from Tinge. She says that's all it takes on most days for her to look like she has got it together. A natural glossy finish that’s flattering and full of rich colour. One glide and it instantly gives a fresher look to the face. Available on LBB Shop too.

Lyvia Wu, a salon owner in Kolkata advocates strongly for clean beauty. She loves good makeup and loves it more if it is planet-friendly. Her absolute favourite is the Feather-Light Matte Liquid Lip Cream (Pretty Nude) from Disguise Cosmetics. Lightweight, comfortable and power-packed with skin superfoods that your lips need! This shade is super versatile and can adapt to all skin types and tones.

How do you choose the best nude shade for your skin tone? Pay close attention to your skin colour and undertones. Avoid shades that are too light if you have fair skin as that will make your lips look like you have applied concealer on it. If your skin is on the darker side, look for shades that are neither too close to your skin colour nor too light. Have olive or medium skin tones? Rejoice! Almost all shades of nude lipsticks will suit you.
