Btw, if you are wondering what those handwritten numbers are on the tube, they are the dates which I opened them. I write them on the lipstick tube so that I will know how old they are. I think it's a good habit to have for all makeup products. :)
1. Buffy Velvetine by Lime Crime
Buffy is my most favourite shade from Lime Crime. It's the perfect nude to me. It is not pink at all. It is a yellowish brown nude on me, with a hint of grey tones in it. I just love this shade. Formula of lime crime velvetines are pretty drying, but nothing too terrible. They smell delicious too.
2. Libra by Black Moon Cosmetics
Another really pretty one. It is a more reddish, slightly orangey nude on me. It looks quite pink in the picture for some reason, but in reality it's not very pink. I absolutely love the formula as well; it's super comfortable and smells so yummy.
3. Celebrity Skin by Jeffree Star Cosmetics
The most pinkish nude lipstick on this list. It's a pinkish, greyish nude on me. Formula is slightly drying but less drying than Lime Crime. Mine is from older batches and does not have the root beer scent, sadly. Kind of smells like chemicals but nothing too overpowering.
4. Bambi by Lonely Planet Co
Lonely Planet co is an etsy shop. They are seriously underrated. They have one of the best liquid lipstick formulas in my opinion. They smell yummy and are sooooo comfortable. They have so many beautiful shades too. I own 8 of their shades. EIGHT!!! I don't own that many shades from any other brand! That's how much I love Lonely Planet.
Anyway, Bambi is a really beautiful slightly orangey brownish nude on me. I think it goes really well with my warm skin tone.
5. Pasadena by Ofra Cosmetics
Ofra is also another company known for their really comfortable liquid lipstick formulas. You won't even feel like there is anything on. Pasadena is my favourite from them. I've tried quite a few shades from them but I never liked any of the others. Pasadena is the only one I like. It is a reddish nude on me. For some reason, it looks pink in the pictures just like the libra picture. My camera seems to like making reds look pink. But it is a beautiful shade either way.
Here is the arm swatch for all of them. Taken by the window under natural sunlight.

So that's it for now. Rest assured there will be a part 2 someday. I love nude lipsticks too much. I already have them part 2 in my collection, I just haven't started using them yet because I don't want to have too many liquid lipsticks opened at once.
Happy lipstick shopping :D
