This is a deep chocolate brown with reddish undertones that can read a bit more berry-ish than brown in some lighting. I’m wearing the same blush and makeup in all of these since I took the pictures back to back and plan on doing a post on the blush itself.
MAISON NYX LIPSTICK SKIN
I really like this color and if I were to wear it I’d go with a darker, heavier eye and maybe wear Illamasqua Excite blush with it to avoid looking washed out since it’s so close to my skin tone.
This is a chocolate pinky brown matte aka another color to look for in a nude if you’re about my skin tone or deeper. On lighter skin tones this would be a pretty light brown but for deeper skin tones this would be more of a light nude than a brown. I’d need to mix this with something else or use a deeper liner to get it to work better for me because on its own? No girl. This is a pinky-beige matte that had me looking like Tyrone Biggums…lol.
This is a cream with shine and a deep pinky brown aka typically the type of color to look for in a nude if you have brown or deeper skin. It’s the type of shade that would work well on most skin tones-on fair and lighter skin it’s a nice contrast and on deeper skin it can either be a vampy color or on very deep skin it can be a pretty neutral. This is in between a cream and a matte and is a deep chocolate brown. Lighter browns also work great on many skin tones-be careful with some on lighter skin as they can wash you out-and on deeper skin use a darker liner with it to help blend it in with your coloring. I like deep chocolate browns for everyone-on fair and lighter skin it makes a great goth-y contrast and on deeper skin it can either be a nude or an alternative to a nude. Everyone can wear brown and as with any color, there are certain browns that look better on some people. Now brown in general is a color that works on everyone. NYX Cosmetics was kind enough to send over some shades for my little project, too. I also decided to add a few variations on the browns that were lighter in color. No brown metallics, no touch of sparkle, no gloss-not for me at least. So I’ve decided that for me that a brown would need to either be a cream or a matte for me to want to rock it. When I googled for shades the most prevalent shades that came up were Ka’Oir Choco Latte, Lime Crime Salem, and NYX Cosmetics Maison. So first things first, there aren’t a ton of true brown lip colors out there. After some time I then got inspired to find some shades of brown to see if I could get into the chocolatey hue.
Back then brown lip color was pretty common especially amongst the era’s stars like En Vogue, SWV, and Total but in this new millennium? Not so much.īut at my Guerlain event I had at Bergdorfs over the summer, reader Dihan (she’s so fab) told me she’d been on the look out for a chocolate brown lipstick. I haven’t worn brown lipstick since like 1995/1996 when I was a teen and would buy a random $1.99 brown lipstick from Rite Aid. In a nutshell the answer would have to be it depends.
