Nude lips

[#1]

I'm looking for a nude lipstick, something to go with dark, smokey eyes that I can wear on stage that won't rub off on my microphone.

Kat Von D's Painted Love Lipsticks are pretty long lasting.  One of her reds lasted through an Italian meal! lol.  Celebutard is a beautiful light nude that works well with many eye looks.  If you decide on one of her lipsticks, you may want to wear a lip balm beneath it since they can be slightly drying at times.  I guess that's the price to pay for long lasting color lol.

I bought a really cute nude by Too Faced, its called the Lip of Luxury, in Toyally Nude. Cute tube and stays on well enought, I more like it for the shade of nude. It's different than my color but still nude so y Los don't disappear.

I love those suggestions. I will have to check out the YSL stain gloss. I don't think I've swatched that before.

The personally love the Bobbi Brown lip color for a pigmented lip color that is semi matte. The shade Beige (shown below) is a true nude, but she also has a shade called nude (slightly more pink) or sandwashed pink for a "your lips only better" shade. The staying power is very good for a lipstick but not a stain.
