I’d say that I am somewhere in the middle when I am tanned, I am more on the darker side of the spectrum (around an NC40 for those familiar with the Mac foundation spectrum) and when I’m pale I’m somewhere between light to medium (NC25-NC30). You only have to line up myself and my 3 sisters to see that we are varying degrees of Asian skin tone. Yes, I am aware that there isn’t one kind of south-east Asian skin tone either. I didn’t imagine how hard it would be to actually find the perfect nude to match my warm toned, yellow-based, Asian skin, and by Asian, I mean of south-east Asia (I’m of Vietnamese ethnicity). I remember not too long ago when nude lips were everywhere magazines, TV, celebrities, billboards… you get the gist, and me being such a sucker for celebrities and marketing, I, too, wanted to be with the ‘in’ crowd and rock a pale, nude lip.
