Spring Lips- Bare, but not naked

It's time to get nude...

Nude lips are a spring makeup must. You've probably already noticed the nude lip gaining popularity with fashion circles- in magazines, on the runway- it's the talk of the town.

When shopping for neutral shades, it's a good idea to try on. It's normal to assume the lack of color will naturally look natural on anyone. But the truth is, more natural toned lipsticks can be just as big a challenge as finding that perfect red, or hot pink.

The trick is to consider the natural color of your skin, like cheeks and chin. Look for complimenting undertones in your lip shade. For instance, if you have olive undertones it may be more difficult if you manage to select nudes with red undertones.

If you're not sure about settling on a lipstick, consider a nude gloss. It's more sophisticated than a clear shine and can highlight a fresh, foundation- free face. Perfect for the beach.
