Best lasting natural looking lipstick

Just that really. Can you recommend a long lasting lip colour in a nude or natural colour?

Lip stain topped up during the day with tinted lip balm. Rimmel used to do a 1000 kisses lip stain but I think it might be discontinued.
Burt's Bees lip balms in a dark tube are good.

This varies too much. One person's 'nude' is another's 'dressed as a corpse for Halloween '.
What's your colouring. What's your budget?

You can either have long lasting or natural looking.
Nars Audacious in Barbara or Anita are brown nude and pink nude: long lasting.
Romand Juicy lasting tint in bare grape, bare fig and nucademia are nude pinks and a brown: not long lasting on me, but do leave a stain and are lovely natural looking colours.

I don't think they're long lasting but I love the Clinique almost lipsticks. I can put them on without a mirror, they're moisturising and give a good natural amount of colour. I prefer the black honey with my colouring.

@ap24, that was my reasoning with the tinted lip balm. I have one of the clinique chubby stick ones and I found it just didn't last. Also I loved the packaging but it didn't have enough content. Looked nice though.

Get a pigment lipstick in a shade that suits you then mute it by blotting and then apply Lipcote and it will last ages.

Natural looking, and have lasted decades so far :).

I love the colour of "Thanks it's MAC" by MAC but it's not very long lasting.

BusterGonad · 30/01/2024 15:39

Probably a good all rounder is Clinique either black honey or pink honey depending on your skin tone.

PaulCostinRIP · 30/01/2024 15:41

Another idea is to use a lip pencil all over your lips for a lasting natural look.

Maybelline lip vinyls are amazing. Last all day on me. There's a few nude shades.

Are these the new gloss ones? I keep looking at these wondering if they'll the same as the L'Oréal ones from about 10 years ago. I had a beautiful one in a purple fushia type shade called Milady. It was very long lasting and glossy.

Unfortunately, I can't find my MAC lipstick so can't advise name but it's something like Cream in my Coffee. Suits all skin tones. I use it (obviously been ages since I've been out!) with MAC Spice lipliner. I use that as a sort of lip 'crayon' before adding lipstick, tissue business and final coat. Never need to reapply which is probably the reason I can't find it!

I'm not sure how new they are. I discovered them in September last year. The thing I love most about them (over and above their longevity) is they don't bleed. I keep an eye on Amazon and they're usually quite a bit cheaper.

Mine woukd be fine if you fancy looking like a corpse. Sadly my once plump, pink lips are looking very pale and thin these days.
