The Best Nude Lipsticks - Summer 2022 Edition

We are just about a month into summer, but being that it is mid-July and just past my daughter’s birthday, I count this as the midway point through summer.

The makeup and beauty brands are launching their fall collections - ack! I am still into summer and summer makeup with the high temperatures soaring across the US as of late. For me, that is minimal makeup and almost always, nude lipstick.

Nude lipstick is great to complement your no-makeup summer look or a beached bronzed summer look, too. Whether you have a summer wedding or weekend away, you won’t go wrong with a summer nude lipstick.

Here are my picks for the best nude lipsticks for this summer of 2022.

Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Kind Words Matte Lipstick in Creative
Creative is a muted peach, which equals a nude peach lipstick when it glides onto lips. This is a creamy matte lipstick that is very pigmented. I love the buttery look and feel. $20

tarte Marcuja Juicy Lip Balm in Grapefruit
Grapefruit is a peachy nude shade that comes through in this all-in-on treatment, balm, gloss, and color. It delivers a high shine as it nourishes lips with its vegan formula. This feels very hydrating and looks super glossy; it’s great for a light summer look at the beach. $21

PAT McGRATH LABS Bridgerton SatinAllure™ Lipstick in Negligee
Negligee is a beautiful neutral, pink beige shade that comes in limited edition packaging. The lipstick features a satin formula with a somewhat dewy finish. $28

Urban Decay Vice Lip Bond Glossy Liquid Lipstick in Safe Word
This is a brand new product and one that I can’t wait to try. It boasts itself as a long-lasting liquid lipstick that provides instant shine and has highly pigmented color that stays on. The formula sounds like others that need to be shaken to activate. Safe Word is a light neutral nude and the swatches look gorgeous and great for summer. $25

Too Faced Cocoa Bold Cream Lipstick in Buttercream
Too Faced makes some of my favorite nude lipstick; they always make very flattering nude lipstick shades. Buttercream is just one of the few nude lipstick shades in the Cocoa Bold Cream Lipstick lineup. It is a warm apricot nude and it is perfect on all complexions, especially with a little golden glow and bronzer in the summer. $28

Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Very Victoria
Very Victoria is a pretty, matte taupe nude color from Charlotte Tilbury’s bestselling lipstick collection. I am a big fan of these lipsticks; they are long-lasting and hydrating. $34
