My latest and greatest makeup obsession has been nude lipsticks. They’re so versatile and you can eat burgers and drink coffee without having ridiculously noticeable lipstick marks. They also fade very beautifully, which means reapplication is pushed to the back burner. Almost all of my favorite nudes are drugstore lipsticks, which is perfect for those on a budget (or those who just love a good lipstick).
Here are some of the best nude drugstore lipstick colors for those who want to look glamorous without spending a ton of money to do it!

1. essence long lasting lipstick – 05 cool nude – This is a gorgeous, matte, dusty neutral shade. I’ve mentioned this before in my 5 Minute Wear to Class Makeup post and I still use it often. It’s buildable and has a great wear.
2. Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm – 205 Elusive – This nude is on the pink side and is perfect for those who like something matte but also not drying and creamy. While it’s not the most long-lasting shade, it fades very beautifully. I recommend this for anyone who prefers very light makeup. I mentioned other shades of this line in both my Best Dark Drugstore Lipsticks & Best Drugstore Red Lipsticks Post.
3. Nyx Soft Matte Lip Creme – Cannes – Would it be a lip recommendation post if I didn’t recommend a Nyx Soft Matte Lip Cream? This shade is a gorgeous nude that’s a bit of a dusty pink. It applies very easily and has great lasting power. Typically Nyx is on sale BOGO 50% off at Ulta, so you can get a really great deal on this brand.
4. Cover Girl Katy Kat Matte – Magenta Minx – Even though the name sounds intimidating, this color is a gorgeous pinky nude. It’s demi-matte, very moisturizing and easy to apply. The packaging is also gorgeous and very aesthetically pleasing. The one con of this lipstick is, despite the packaging being beautiful, the packing is also white and it gets very dirty.
5. Nyx Matte Lipstick – Hippie Chic – The formula on the Nyx Matte Lipsticks is one of my favorite matte lipstick formulas of all time! They’re so moisturizing and pigmented, I don’t have enough great things to say about them.
