Have you ever had trouble finding a “nude” shade that matches your skin tone? I have, in nail polish, foundation, lipstick, and lingerie. I have a delicious Hershey brown skin, and most “nudes” are made for my lighter colored sisters, i.e. pinky beige, ivory, olive, tan, fair, etc. Now that I have time on my hands, I’ve been looking for nudes that match my nude. I’ve found a few. Here are some of the companies I’ve found that specialize in colors that match a full range of colors, from cream to blackberry.
- Anya Lust which carries many, many lingerie brands in many, many colors and styles
- Sensai carries nude lip color which is amazing
- Love, Vera which carries delicious lingerie for all kinds of body types, including women like me who’ve left youthful slimness behind, but not the desire to look good in those special moments.
- Bobbi Brown Crushed Liquid Lipstick in Haute Cocoa is another shade that works as a nude for melanin favored sisters.
