Nude lipstick is a beauty essential —
effortless, elevated, and wearable anywhere.

But “nude” doesn’t look the same on everyone.
Your perfect shade depends on the harmony between your natural undertone, lip pigment, and skin depth.

ToneLab Beauty is all about enhancing your tone —
so let’s find the nude that looks like you, but even better. ✨


🔍 Step 1 — Identify Your Undertone

Undertone What You’ll Notice Best Nude Tones
Cool Pink or rosy skin; silver jewelry suits you Pink-beige, mauve nude
Warm Yellow or golden skin; gold jewelry suits you Peach nude, caramel brown
Neutral Mix of both Rose-beige, soft tan nudes

Tip: Look at the veins on your wrist →
Blue/purple = cool, green = warm, both = neutral


👄 Best Nudes for Each Skin Tone

✅ Fair to Light Skin

✔ Pink-based nude
✔ Soft beige with rosy tint
Avoid shades too yellow — they can look flat

Recommended pick:
ToneLab Soft Rose Nude Balm — enhances natural lip flush


✅ Medium Skin (Warm or Olive)

✔ Peachy nude**
✔ Caramel beige
✔ Muted coral

These add warmth + glow without washing you out

Recommended pick:

✅ Tan to Deep Skin

✔ Deep rose-brown shades
✔ Spiced caramel tones

These create stunning natural definition

Recommended pick:

Nude makeup doesn’t mean less glam — just different glam.
