Fair
The soft, rosy beige-leaning tone of Charlotte Tilbury K.I.S.S.I.N.G Lipstick in Penelope Pink is so flattering on skin with warmer undertones—it gives the lips the perfect flush of color while blending seamlessly into the complexion. Le Metier de Beauté Hydra Crème Lipstick in Sahara has a slightly more coral hue that’s ideal for no-makeup days, as it really brightens up the complexion without imparting too much color.

Described as a “pink beige,” NARS Audacious Lipstick in Raquel has a subtly peachy undertone that’s gorgeous on medium and olive-toned skin, especially with a tan. Nude lip colors don’t get much more classic than Clé de Peau Extra Rich Lipstick in 101, a slightly lighter, less pink-leaning nude.
