FINDING THE PERFECT NUDE LIPSTICK

Finding the perfect nude lipstick isn't an easy task. After many late nights reading one too many ''the ultimate guide'' to finding your perfect nude lipstick, I have found mine (doing a little happy dance). Rimmel have some of the best drugstore lipsticks and they have come through for me on this occasion. The Rimmel Only 1 Matte Lipstick in the shade 'look who is talking' is the perfect nude lipstick for me.

I made it my personal mission to find the perfect nude lipstick, anyone would tell you it's an absolute essential. I picked up this lipstick early this year and I have been wearing it ever since, yes even throughout summer. I have the weirdest colouring. I have a quite dark olive-toned complexion, with super pigmented lips. Normal nude lipsticks, the paler ones just look terrible on me, I end up looking like I am ill.

This shade even though it wouldn't be considered your typical nude, I find that it works for me. That's the most important thing to remember when looking for your perfect nude lipstick. What works for me, might not work for you. Nude lipsticks are very a personal business. I have seen girls with darker skin tones pull off paler pinker toned nudes and look incredible but on me, it just doesn't work. No matter how much I may like Victoria's (from Inthefrow) nude lipstick I just can't make it work for me.

On to the good stuff, this shade is a really pretty 90s brown, don't be scared. It's super wearable, and
of course, it will look different on you than it does on me but it's still a very very pretty colour. These lipsticks are described as a high coverage matte lipsticks. I don't find it drying at all, in fact, the complete opposite it's incredibly comfortable to wear. It's so easy to apply, one of the main reasons that it's become a staple is that I don't need a mirror to apply 1 swipe and that's it. Because it's not super matte, I find that it doesn't last as long (but lipsticks generally just don't last long on my lips, so I wouldn't hold this against it) despite that it does wear really nice and leaves you with that my lips but better tint.

I love Rimmel lipsticks and I am always banging on about the Kate for Rimmel lipsticks, especially the 107 (I have a post on it here). This post is not in any way sponsored by Rimmel and they haven't sent me the products, but Rimmel if you are reading, it's my birthday this month and I would be more than happy to receive all the lipsticks thank you in advance.

Let me know what your perfect nude lipstick is.
