I was skeptical when I opened the tube - most nude browns appear sad and washed out on my melanated lips. I swiped on the Kinu Care Glow Up and was blown away by how beautiful this gloss goes on! The nude brown doesn’t include the chalky undertones I’ve come to expect from most pale browns. The color is subtle and almost matte, with enough pearlescence to give my lips a gorgeous glow. The formula is creamy, so my lips feel hydrated. This is my new favorite!
