Whenever I find a good nude lipstick I rejoice! It’s hard to find something that looks good and feels decent that doesn’t break the bank. I am not a huge fan of L’oreal lipsticks traditionally but this one is the exception. Nature’s Blush is a great nude on my Mac NC 50 skin tone. The thing that turns me off about L’oreal lipsticks is the smell. It’s a small thing but thats why I don’t have many of them. They smell like baby powder to me which is a killer.
I found Nature’s Blush during my hunt for great nude drugstore lip glosses. I did a series on those a while ago and came upon this lipstick shade. It lasts for several hours and despite the smell that I try to avoid I appreciate that there is no taste to this lipstick. It’s under $10 so take a look and maybe you’ll love it too!
I use all the great nude drugstore glosses I found in that series I did with this lipstick. I also wear it alone. It looks beautiful all on it’s own. I have dressed it up a bit with a chocolate liner from Milani also. Basically everything I’ve tried has worked so it’s not a fussy shade.
Check out Nature’s Blush on your next visit to the drugstore. Or look into Revlon Mink Lipstick that’s another drugstore favorite of mine. Even if those two aren’t the nude for you maybe you’ll find the one that is!

It’s definitely hard to find nude for dark skin that doesn’t look unflattering, but this shade looks perfect! It reminds me of NYX Cocoa 558 lipstick.

It’s sooo hard!

This looks perfect on you! I’m going to look for this. I don’t like L’oreal lipsticks either but I like this color.

This color is beautiful. We have similar skintones so I need to try it. Is it in the permanent line?
Crystal says
Yes it’s permanent.

This is one of my most worn lipsticks! I bought it on impulse last year for a steep discount and love it. I don’t mind the L’Oreal lipstick smell, I just hate that stores don’t have testers because these always look different from the tube to my lips! Another good L’Oreal lippie that’s very pinky/neutral is 114 Tender Pink.
Crystal says
I really wish all the stores had testers. I think they’d sell more product and have less returns!

The color looks great on you Crystal! Nature’s Blush is such a sure safe nude – not too beige, not too orange, truly flesh looking on my NC45 coloring. This is what I call, my “natural but even better color”! A wonderful drugstore treasure.
Crystal says
Thanks! Thats a great way to describe it!

Oh oh ohhhhh! I like this! I’m over lipsticks I have to baby which means a lot of “nudes” I had in my stash. Luckily most of the were from the drugstore. So I didn’t pay a lot but still I’m like grrrrrrr! I have a $5 off CVS coupon burning a hole in my wallet. I may go and check this out. Or see if Ulta has a buy one, get one going one.
Crystal says
This is a great nude that doesn’t need much work which is nice and getting it at a discount is a huge bonus!

I get so stuck on the shade names that I never would have thought it would look this fabolous. Did you ever try Mink from Revlon Super Lustrous? I am so mad i’ve just discovered it. I can only find it at one Rite-Aid that I go to which is strange. I may have to grab this one. You are my downfall I tell ya.
Crystal says
I mentioned Revlon Mink at the bottom of this post and included the link to my post on it. It’s a great shade.
