I have dark brown hair, an oliveish complexion, and my lips are naturally a little more darker red/pink than most people's. But I really like the whole nude lip thing, but everytime I try it, it just looks.. really.. weird. I've tried pale lip glosses, concealor, I don't know, are there any tricks or anything to keep me from looking like a clowN?
aDoRkAbLe_Co0kIe_ answered Saturday January 3 2009, 2:04 am: Try to pick a lip color or a lip gloss closer to your natural skin color. If you are darker complected and you try to use a pink gloss, of course you'll look like a clown! Some light complected girls do it and they look like clowns. lol Having "nude lips" means that your lips kind of blend in with your skin so pick a gloss, not EXACTLY the same, but a few shades lighter than your skin color. If that's not possible...you could always try a little bit of foundation (in your color of course) and a clear lip gloss. Just experiment with it :) [ aDoRkAbLe_Co0kIe_'s advice column | Ask aDoRkAbLe_Co0kIe_ A Question ]

Put it on, wear it around the house, get formiliar with it by looking at your lips in the mirror often.
If that doesnt work, invite a friend over, and ask her for her advice.
Hope I helped!
Goodluck. [ AnonymousAdvisor's advice column | Ask AnonymousAdvisor A Question ]
