Video: The Struggle - Finding the Perfect Nude (Lip Swatches)



I have always struggled to find the perfect nude lipstick for my particular colouring so I thought about making a video on the topic in the hopes of helping others with a similar problem. I addressed the topic initially in my Marina and the Diamonds Forget makeup tutorial, and a lot of people seemed to have the same problem, which finally spurred me on to make this video.


This blog post is intended as a place to share my lip swatch photos so you can take a look in your own time. The video is here as well for you to get the full review on the performance of the products I mention. 

I discovered this information just after filming: Lolita has had three different formulations so far, and I appear to have the second version. So please bear in mind that if you order it now it will probably look quite different to mine. I think this is why swatches are so inconsistent!
