Are you looking for the perfect nude lipsticks from MAC, but you are confused about which ones would suit your skintone the best? We are here to your rescue with the post about the best 15 nude MAC lipsticks and their affordable drugstore dupes.
After a killer bold-and-bright crimson red lipstick, a nude lipstick has to be the #2 must-have shade in every makeup lover’s lipstick stash. On the days when you want to keep things toned down with your makeup look, a nude lipstick comes to your rescue and gives a soft, natural looking tint to your pout! Well of course, nude lipsticks also go well with smokey eye makeup looks or colourful looks!
However, I know.. Finding the right MLBB (my lips but better) kind of nude lipstick shade that suits your skintone is such a difficult task especially if you are shopping for it online. Some nude lipsticks end up looking extremely ashy and jaded against certain skintones while the rest appear too stark to be referred as a MLBB lipstick.
The good news is, everyone’s favourite professional makeup brand, MAC, has a shade of nude lipstick for all skintones out there. As far as I know, they probably have over 40 shades (and counting!) of MAC nude lipsticks! So all you have to do is just explore their collection – until you find the perfect MAC nude lipstick shade for yourself according to your skintone.
I am making your hunt for that perfect trendy nude lip shade a bit easier for you by compiling this list of 15 nude lipsticks from MAC and their affordable dupes from the drugstore. So in case you are a broke makeup junkie like me and you want to own a nude lipstick shade that is similar to the MAC nude lipstick that you have got your eyes on, you will have your affordable nude lipsticks options sorted out with this post!
Keep on scrolling to check out the top 15 MAC nude lipsticks and their affordable drugstore dupes that would save you some bucks.
