Nude Awakening

May 23rd, 2008

There’s something about nude lips that’s undeniably sexy. For so long, a painted red mouth was the epitome of glamorous, and now the tables have turned. Charlize Theron’s lightly glossed lips not only make them look fuller, but they also shift the focus to her eyes. Mac’s Lipglass, in Underage, strikes the perfect balance between an ultra-shiny gloss in a barely-there, pale pink shade.  I’m a huge fan of the convenient bottle and sponge tip applicator and it also has the most amazingly subtle scent that makes this nude gloss feel even more au naturel.

    love the color, but I’ve always found MAC lipglass too sticky.

    I’ve been doing a nude lip for a long, long time. I first apply a coat of Vaseline, then put a nude paint on the lips… blend in a little concealer, then top with some beige gloss… and there you have it.
