2017 might have been the year of some extreme beauty looks (from glitter and gold to rainbow roots and wavy brows), but judging from the stories that got the most interest on our site, the biggest trend of the year was also one of the most basic: nude lips. Whether nude for you means buff, peach, pink, tan or brown—the perfectly matched shade can create the look of fuller lips and make a strong statement that people of all colorings and ages can pull off.
Most nude lip products, however, come in the form of matte tube and liquid lipsticks—which aren’t exactly friendly to chapped and flaky winter lips. The solution? Swap out the flat mattes for comfortable, moisturizing glosses. We turned to seven beauty bloggers to find the best nude options that’ll still get you the look without drying you out.
