I LOVE THESE COMBOS! I usually find myself incorporating shades of pink, peach, and brown into my everyday looks.

Why You’ll Love It: This combo creates a soft look that's perfect for everyday wear. The Puffy Nude liner shapes your lips beautifully, while Dirty Talk lipstick adds a creamy texture. I use the Sugar Baby gloss as the final touch for a hint of shine. šŸ’‹

Why You’ll Love It: For a fresh and vibrant look, this peachy nude combo is unbeatable. The pink lip crayon offers a pop of color that's both subtle and lively. MAC’s Half N’ Half lipstick provides a creamy finish that’s both hydrating and long-lasting!

Why You’ll Love It: This combo is ideal for adding some richness to your look. The Kiko liner defines your lips with a warm, earthy tone, while the Bibi lipstick offers a smooth, full-coverage finish. I love Polite Society lip balm for the perfect glossy touch.

How to Use These Shades:

Day Look: Try the pinky nude combo for a soft, everyday look that’s effortlessly chic.

Evening Glam: Choose the peachy nude combo for a fresh, vibrant appearance that lights up your face.

Bold & Sophisticated: Go for the brownie nude combo to create that striking, polished look that’s perfect for evenings out or special events.

  • Frizz Control: Keeps frizz away, ensuring smooth, manageable hair.

  • Thermal Protection: Offers heat protection, making it perfect for styling.

  • Long-Lasting Freshness: Keeps hair feeling soft and manageable for up to 5 days, even after workouts.

  1. Such a playful summer outfit. A polka dot white cami top with high-waisted, distressed jeans. The top has a light, airy feel making it perfect for warm weather. Try and keep the look simple with minimal accessories; a delicate necklace or small hoop earrings can compliment the outfit without overpowering it.
