For so long when it came time to shop for a nude lipstick shade, makeup lovers with dark skin found it difficult finding one suitable for themselves. Across makeup aisles, the nude options that were available were only fit for people with light skin.
But as the beauty industry continues making strides to be inclusive of all consumers, an increasing number of brands are recognizing that beige isn't the only nude that exists and creating nude products that cover the diverse spectrum of human skin. After all, nude is supposed to be flesh-toned, so it's nonsensical to have beige serve as the de facto nude color in cosmetics when beauty lovers with darker complexions exist.
From the velvety, high performance matte formula to the sleek gold bullet, every swipe of this luxe nude from Chanel is sure to make you feel like the fancy woman you are.
