So, if your skin is that green-toned kind, it’s time to unlearn everything about nude lipstick science, and figure out which ones work best for you. Since it’s a totally different undertone category, the kind of makeup that suits olive skin is also different, and this includes nude lipsticks.
Common in Italy, India, and Latin America, olive skin is a type of undertone which can exist in pretty much every skin colour, from dark to light. In case you’re confused, here’s what olive skin is: usually neutral, which means your veins are both green and blue, olive skin is somewhat golden with a greenish-grey tinge. These lipsticks might work for a range of skin tones, but for olive skin, it’s a whole different ball-game. When it comes to picking a nude lipstick, most people just talk about brown-toned nudes, pinky-nudes, and true nudes.
