Charlotte Tilbury's Pillow Talk is the iconic reference point for every nude lipstick ever. Being a universally flattering nude-pink shade is one of the many reasons it is beloved by so many. It's believed that there is one Pillow Talk lipstick being sold every 10 seconds, and that shows the brand is definitely doing something right. The shade is a perfect balance between pink and nude, a transition shade if you will, that adds a beautiful flush to your face.

While the brand has evolved its iconic Pillow Talk to several other verticals now, with lip pencils, gloss, and more, we cannot help but still covet the OG lipstick. Sure, saving up for it can be tricky, but until then, these are the other nude lipstick alternatives to Charlotte Tilbury's Pillow Talk that we are giving a space in our vanity bag.

Maybelline's Super Stay Crayon Lipstick in the shade Lead The Way is a close pink-ish nude to Pillow Talk. Since it's a crayon, it lasts super long and is great for daily wear. It gives up to eight hours of colour payoff. It also comes with a cool inbuilt sharpener, which is much appreciated, since crayons become blunt faster compared to other bullet lipsticks.

A tried-and-tested product, the Kay Beauty Matte Drama lipstick is great when it comes to a lightweight, creamy matte lipstick. Though the formula is a bit lip-balm-y, we still love it for its extensive range of colours. The care ingredients in it contain grapeseed oil and red raspberry that moisturise while also protecting your lips from sun damage or any blue light. Though on the slightly higher price point compared to the rest, we still love it for being an affordable luxe product.
