I was surfing the web looking for style tips and I came across a gorgeous photo of Jennifer Lopez. She had this perfect made up face with a nude lip. I’ve gone to many cosmetic stores and drug stores but I can never seem to find that particular lip color nor anything close to it. I want that look for winter. Can you tell me where to find nude lip colors. Lillian - Forestville, MD.

Most people wreck their brain and waste money trying to achieve the perfect nude lip look. Sometimes the nude lip that you see isn’t a lip stick at all. Most of the time it’s concealer. Many talented makeup artist, myself included use a concealer stick to achieve the perfect nude lip. Although many makeup giants have nude lip colors they sometime can look too shear or too chalky and that‘s why concealer sticks are perfect. Since concealer sticks are used to cover things up it provides great coverage for a flawless look. You can also add lip gloss or leave it as is for a great matte look.

TIPS: 1.Concealer on the lips are also used to cancel out your actual lip color to enhance (show the actual color of) a color lip stick. 2.If you take the route of using a concealer stick, buy the color closest to your skin tone. 3.Go to a makeup counter in your local department store and sit down with a makeup expert to find the right nude lip color.

For more beauty advice feel free to contact me or your local beauty expert.

Until next time,

Live Well . Live Fabulous!
