To be completely honest, a naked lip rarely impresses me. In fact, I can’t recall the last time I saw a nude lip and was attracted by it—either it’s a classic red, a high-gloss scenario, or nothing at all. That is, until I was lazily perusing through Instagram today and came across the dreamiest nude lip.

Hung Vanngo, Taylor Hill’s makeup artist, shared her look for Tom Ford’s S/S 2023 New York Fashion Week show. Of course, her head-to-toe cobalt costume is enough to stop traffic, but I couldn’t get enough of her lipstick. It’s the ideal mauvy, soft-matte pinky nude shade.
Fortunately, Vanngo disclosed the exact lip colour he used on Hill, which is the Kind Words Matte Lipstick in Worthy from Selena Gomez’s Rare Beauty collection. This colour is defined as a “muted mauve,” and it looks good on all complexion tones.
