We tested a batch of nude lipsticks on fair, medium and deep Asian skin tones. “Those with fair skin tones can look incredible in pink or rose based nudes, whereas medium to olive complexions can pull off warmer tones of beige or peach and rich chocolate hues can beautifully flatter deeper skin tones,” advises Martin.
Some lips are pale, while others are heavily pigmented – applying a nude that is too light can clash with your complexion. Pay attention to your natural lip shade too. “Most Asians tend to have a warm, olive or golden undertone to their skin, so picking a nude that is too light can make the complexion look washed out.”
