Basic in party makeup: the almost obligatory MAC nude lipstick for when you wear smoky eyes

With the calendar of parties, appointments, events, lunches and dinners packed to the brim, there is one thing that cannot be missing from your bag this year. And since we know that you are going to give it your all with makeup, here it goes, mystery unveiled: we have found the exact perfect shade for when you get a good smokey eye.

Hasn't this doubt come to you after making up your eyes in smoky black or midnight blue? Thinking of red lips to make a round makeup is very sweet, but it depends on how you are and how you usually make up, it can also be loaded and excessive, bordering on the artificial without being pretty. The reason: the pigment is already enough in the look, which is the undisputed protagonist when you bet on the smoky look, so relax the rest of the face so that it doesn't end in failure. We like red lips, yes, but there are 1000 more occasions to show them off.

Then which one? Well, if it is not a good lip balm that provides juiciness, hydration and a light shine on the lips, or a transparent and luminous gloss, go for a good nude tone. And in this field we have a sea of ​​possibilities because each person is a world.

There has already been much talk about how to choose the perfect nude lipstick shade based on your nipples (as you read it). But now we have found a subtle, flattering and luminous tone ready to fill the lips with juiciness, to unify the natural tone and to be the perfect ally with that intense smoky look. It's from MAC and if you want the exact reference, look for the shade 'Blankety', a creamy nude shade of the iconic MAC Lipstick that helps to give texture, define and form a nice juicy lip.

It glides very easily on the lips and the collection ranges from matte to shimmer and metallic finishes. This shade will leave lips creamy. It is not transparent, because it offers full coverage, but being such a natural and subtle shade, it will look like your lips are bare.
