Why Are These The Best Lipsticks For Medium Skin?

Medium skin tones have a wide range of undertones and depth. Natalie, pictured here, has neutral undertones and is closer to the middle of the spectrum for medium skin tones. If your skin tone (and hair color) are similar to Natalie’s, keep reading to learn the best lipsticks for your medium skin!

Those with a medium neutral skin tone can easily wear a variety of colors. So for your makeup bag you’ll be focusing on hair, eye, and base lip color.

When choosing lipsticks for someone with a similar look to Natalie, we’re really focused on enhancing features. The great thing about these colors is she’ll likely be able to still wear them as her features change over time. Maybe with only slight adjustments to how bold the colors are worn.  

Now, let’s talk base lip color, which is the color your lips are with nothing on them.  This is important because our lipsticks are designed to blend WITH your natural lip color not completely cover it up. So, these lipsticks will look different on someone who has a brown or purple base lip color, and may not be our first choices. 

Natalie’s base lip color is a medium purple so any lipstick she chooses will have a slight purple tint to them. Knowing your base lip color allows you to find lipstick shades that are just a shade deeper (like Ooh La La) for a “my-lips-but-better” look – the perfect everyday lipstick for looking pulled together without any effort.  It will be your timeless, classic, everyday shade. 

If your overall look, is anywhere similar to Natalie’s these lipsticks will all be good choices for you.

You might be wondering what other makeup will look amazing on your medium skin. Below, you’ll find lip pencils that will pair perfectly with the best lipsticks for you, that we talked about above. We also included some glosses that would look AMAZING with those lipsticks but also beautiful worn alone. Blush is one of our favorite products, because it brings your face to life – and the shade M’Lady, is by far the best blush for medium skin! You could also get away with Gotta Glow (peachy pink universally flattering blush) or Tango (true matte peach – if you lean more toward an olive skin tone). Either way, your makeup bag will not be complete without blush – and we highly recommend a matte muted mauve blush shade, M’Lady.
