Bold Eyes & Nude Lips
Wednesday, August 12, 2009
I'm totally loving nude lip colors with bold smokey eyes. Nude lips are awesome because they look good on any complexion and go with absolutely everything! The contrast of the lips and the eyes just look amazing...

This has always been my go-to look, although I'm dying to find THE perfect nude lip. Will investigate these further!

i need to find a nude lipstick!
loving the look!

I love this look too but I have a hard time pulling it off for some reason...nude lips make me look kind of sick but maybe I'm using the wrong color?

This is one of my favorite looks!

You're right, I absolutely adore this look. Lily looks stunning.
And nobody does it better than M.A.C, Clinique and Smashbox.

I agree nude lips are very sexy if done right.

I agree!! I am always sporting nude lips... because I can't manage much else and I am scared of bright lipstick (I just don't wear makeup), but I also love how they look!

i love nude lips, they are very in right now! i have a paul and joe lipstick that is very nude, it's like a light brown, and with some clear gloss, and i'm all set to go! :)

so sexy , it's my choice for sexy night make up!!
August 12, 2009 at 2:07 PM
I do nude lips when a particular outfit DEMANDS it but other than that I stick to my red!
August 12, 2009 at 2:39 PM
Okay, I really must get some NARS, I think I have missed out on this product!!! It is quite stunning with the nude lips and dramatic eyes!
August 12, 2009 at 2:57 PM
I SOOOO love this look!!! It can be tricky to find the right nude shade for your lips, b/c I love all those baby pink shades but they look too light for my skin tone. Right now, I'm using Benefit Lip plumper lip pencil in Love Ya, for anyone who has light Asian skin.

Love this look! It's actually my party look haha!

I'm always looking for the perfet nude lip and I always look washed out. Any idea which one would be best for pale skin?
August 12, 2009 at 7:49 PM
I meant perfect. Ah ha
August 12, 2009 at 9:03 PM
Love these looks, Lily! Finding the perfect nude can be sooo hard!
August 12, 2009 at 10:14 PM
i love this look! super chic :)
August 12, 2009 at 11:04 PM
a lot of these are really similar to my complexion - i need to try some of these colors!
August 12, 2009 at 11:39 PM
Love this look. Although I have yet to master the dark lid - I just end up looking like I fell into a coal mine..lol!
XOXO

I've always been a fan of this look, nude lips and smoky eyes are fantastic and perfect for a special night out.
August 13, 2009 at 12:56 AM
FINALLY, the nude lips are back! I've missed them so and thanks for the product tips! Striptease looks to be the perfect one for me!
August 13, 2009 at 1:04 AM
Love that look so much! I have to try one of nude lip glosses you recommended! xxoxoxo

I love this look! Thanks for the gloss suggestions!
August 13, 2009 at 8:16 AM
thanks lovely. wow i love the makeup here. lily looks gorgeous as always. x
August 13, 2009 at 9:39 AM
Gorgeous pics...love this look! And love that Nars lipgloss too.
August 13, 2009 at 9:59 AM
This is one of my favorite looks, which I am sooo bad at replicating! I can't seem to manage doing the smoky eye thing myself -- I have made lots of attempts, and it has yet to turn out quite right :(
August 13, 2009 at 10:52 AM
That has always been one of my favorite looks. It manages to remain casual and natural, yet downright fierce at the same time. Nude lips are simply divine - especially on Lily Donaldson. She's amazingly gorgeous! :)
August 13, 2009 at 12:47 PM
I love this look too! Thx for your sweet comment :)
August 13, 2009 at 1:43 PM
Can you believe I haven't tried a true nude color on my lips? I do clear, a sheer pink, etc. but I worry that nude will make me look dead...although I do love the dramatic look of bold eyes & nude lips. Will definitely have to give this a try!
August 13, 2009 at 2:26 PM
love this look, think you need impeccable skin though
August 13, 2009 at 5:09 PM
simply gorgeous. I love a nude lip..I like to add a bit of clear gloss too just for some extra shine.
August 13, 2009 at 5:46 PM
P.S. Are you still doing the shred? How is it going?

Nude lips look great but I think you've got to be careful and find the right shade...otherwise if it's too pale it looks silly!
August 13, 2009 at 5:53 PM
I have the Nars one! LOVE IT
August 13, 2009 at 7:23 PM
I love a nude - so simple.
xx
August 13, 2009 at 7:31 PM
i LOVE that look but for some reason i cannot pull off the nude lip. i mean besides adding lip gloss to my own lip color but that's not the same. i bought a pretty nude from MAC a long time ago, wore it all night and then when i saw the pictures i looked like i was on my death bed. so yea basically i need lessons. lol.
August 13, 2009 at 8:02 PM
I am SO a fan of this trend too! Now to figure out how to do the bold eye..... I'm not very good with eye makeup! I have these little tiny beady Asian eyes. I have no idea what to do with them!! clothedmuch.blogspot.com
August 13, 2009 at 8:49 PM
Great post, love the nude lips.
August 13, 2009 at 9:45 PM
I love this look. Thanks for sharing.
August 13, 2009 at 10:19 PM
nice examples, and i really like this look as well (not that i can wear anything but nude lip color!)
August 13, 2009 at 10:20 PM
I love the dramatic eyes and nude lips for evening out.
August 13, 2009 at 10:24 PM
Great photos. All of them look fantastic. It's definitely a wonderful look. Have an awesome Friday and weekend. Cheers!
August 13, 2009 at 10:27 PM
i LOVE nude lips! which reminds me....i have nude lipstick somewhere...hmmm...i need to find that.
August 13, 2009 at 11:32 PM
Ohhh I love my striptease <33
and as for my nose, it's healing up fast.. I'm tempted to peel off the scab because it's itchy :X But I'm trying to resist! haha, and he's a cranky sleeper plus he was probably having a nightmare :(
August 14, 2009 at 11:10 AM
Oh I love this look! That last girls makeup is AMAZING!
