Quick Experiment: Creating nude lips using concealer & gloss
By retail_therapy · December 30, 2009 · 10 Comments · 102 Views
Hi!
One reader was asking me if nude lips can be created using a foundation/concealer followed by a lipgloss… and I thought that would make a rather fun and useful blog post. I tried on two conealer shades in this experiment, and I will explain everything along the way!
Step One: This is my natural lip color without any products.
First I used NYX Concealer in a Jar (Porcelene) which is frankly too pale for me as a concealer. As you can see, this color erases my lip color completely, too pale and ghastly for my liking. It also looks drying, especially on the lower lip.
Then, I applied MAC’s Underage lipglass over, for some definition and texture.
Still very pale, but I will show you the whole face to put things into perspective.
Then I tried another concealer, which is the peachy shades in the Ben Nye concealer wheel. These are darker in tone. Again, very drying on the lips. I don’t think the difference is very obvious in the pictures.
The verdict?? I think if you like really nude lips, you can certainly try this out! Kind of drying on the lips though, and also, I guess you can do this as a last resort, if you want to explore the whole pale/ nude lips thingy, but not sure if you want to pay for a nude lipstick at MAC or something, because we know it is hard to find a nice nude lipstick at drugstore price range – though I highly recommmend NYX round lipsticks for cheap alternatives.
That’s all, and happy holidays!
I am thinking my first entry for 2010 will be a product rave….and I guess you have a pretty good idea what that will be.

We absolutely love your blog and find almost all of your post’s to be what precisely I’m looking for. Does one offer guest writers to write content for yourself? I wouldn’t mind creating a post or elaborating on many of the subjects you write about here. Again, awesome web site!

I was curious if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
