This is just OK. Nothing to rave about, and in my opinion, not a great nude, there are better nudes out there... As another reviewer mentioned, this will tend to look chalky, and definitely needs a gloss. For me the color is not that great so i will pair it with darker berry-toned glosses and they will lift the color and make it much more wearable for me.

I was on the hunt for lots of nude lipsticks, and this one is highly rated as a nude lippie. Well, this wasn't exactly what I thought 'nude' would be, this has a lot more pigmentation than I was expecting. I was thinking MAC Myth or Creme d Nude (along those lines) but this is much more pigmented than those. I'd call this more 'neutral' toned than nude IMO. That being said, it's really not a bad lipstick. I have issues finding lipsticks that I can wear by themselves, most lipsticks clash against my skintone (I'm very fair) but I am able to pull this off by toning it down with another pale lippie or lipgloss. I can only wear it with a light hand though. I probably won't buy it again but I'm sure I'll eventually use up the tube I do own.

I like this lipstick is on the nude pink side it looks a little cakey on me but since I wear gloss over it it looks lovely...(for reference I'm an NC40)

I love this lipstick!
I wear it all the time with a clear gloss over it.
I can wear it and it doesnt make me look like a zombie or washed out, and im pale.
I lost my orginal one of this in a corn maze, so i went and bought another. :)

At last I have found my perfect lipstick. I like to darken my eyes and keep my lips neutral... The problem I have is that I have extremely fair skin and very very pigmented lips. When I go out and someone takes my picture, the flash makes me look whiter than white and my lips look deep red which really doesnt look good. This lipstick is perfect. Its not so pale that it looks like I have no lips but its a nice subtle warm beigey pink colour which really compliments my fair skin. Its very creamy and not at all drying, yet It covers my lips totally. It lasts for a good while too! Love it!

Yummy, I love this lipstick. It's the only 1 that I have a multiples of. It's the perfect "nude" shall we say without looking dead. It's a pinky beige with no shimmer or sheen. It's pretty much matte, just more creamy. Super soft, glides on like a dream and does not dry out my lips. I love the smell as well. This color is my favorite by far however it's very close to the same color as VGII on me. I do not mind, I cannot get enough of this color. I will buy this again.

This was my first ever lipstick. It was recommended to me by a MUA who was new there at the time (first day of work). Since then, I've become good friends with her and purchased a few other colors, but Blankety remains my favorite period, not just in the nude family. I love how it's both nude and a soft, dusky-rosy pink. I find that it's flattering on me no matter what kind of look I'm going for. The best thing about the pink part though is that it'll never be mistaken for a foundation on the lips look for me. If I could only have one lipstick, this would be it.

I got this in a swap and so glad I did, its a good nude color at first I thought it washed me out to much buch now I love it with a smokey eye and i love pairing it with other lipsticks and glosses.

I've been on a hunt for a great nude l/s for ages and I mean that. I love nude lips.. I believe it's a great combo for any eye look! I want something I could actually wear everyday that won't make me look all washed out or ill. I have a couple of nude colors already but I wanted something more.. this color is just perfect! Nude with a hint of natural-looking pink to it. Nice on pigmented lips and can be worn alone with or without a base and a gloss! I really recommend this shade I bet it'll flatter any skin color! Would definitely keep on repurchasing! good thing it's part of MAC's permanent line (Happy me!).

Nw30 and extremely pigmented lips, this looked like a cardboard box on me. I went to the store and tried it as lipsticks don't always look the same on everyone. It didn't wash me out, but it made me look dull and idk the color is just not flattering on me maybe if it had more pink or shit, any undertones.

Amazing nude lip colour. With a brown base it doesn't make you look washed out either. I used to use Creme D'Nude but after it melted I invested in a new nude lippy. I bought Myth and Blankety (I also have Hue which I don't mind). Myth was too dry and pale even for a nude lip.. I'm a NW20. Creme D'Nude was amazing but being a Cremesheen it just melted too easily. Blankety gives you a bit of bronze warmth and is also moisturising so you can wear it without a gloss. Will definitely buy again.

Very nice and versatile color—great by itself (I like the shimmery highlight quality a few coats will give your center pout), and wonderful as a base for SO MANY wonderful combinations with glosses and lusters over it—amplify the pink, bring in some peach or even mauve, or bring out the earthy beige, the endless choices are yours...


This really has a nIce nude quality with just a hint of pink—very CLASSY (as opposed to more "girly", or more pink). I started with Myth for a nude look, but Myth is too beige and too corpsey/concealer like. Blankety is still nude-esque, and not for color-riffic girls, but is a unique nude color for those wanting a nude with a hint of pink, saving it from corpse-beige hell. Classy and jazzy, like most, I just adore it with heavy smokey eyes. One reviewer here said it best—"...It's like your lips but better...."


For a similiar classy look, but with decidedly more pink, check out "Angel"

Hmm I'm on the fence with this one. I'm usually so pleased with MAC lipsticks that this was kind of a let down. First off I am NC30 with medium pigmented lips and this is a medium brown-pink on me. I think the reviews are misleading because I see lighter skin tones describing this as a nude. No...these girls have NUDE and NEUTRAL confused. This is probably a NEUTRAL MLBB color for most people as it is for me but the only way I can see this being nude on anyone is if you have a darker skin tone in the NC/NW40 plus range. Anyways, one thing is for sure you definitely need to try before you buy because this is one of those colors that looks different on everyone. Moving on, this oxidizes badly on me and becomes more brown almost with a gray tinge to it. The only way I stop it is by constantly reapplying a new layer. I don't mind because the formula (Amplified) is one of MAC's best...very creamy and pigmented and this doesn't dry my lips at all. Over all this is just an okay color on me, not particularly super flattering but ok for when I just need a grab and go lipstick. This does go well with all different looks but to be honest I'm just trying to use this up and I definitely will NOT be repurchasing. If you are looking for a more wearable NUDE that is not Myth or CdN check out Hue which is my all time HG.

I was searching for a nude lippie I tried Myth cause I heard so many good reviews on how this is perfect nude lippie. Well, I;m a NC43/NC44 and that lipstick made me look like I just ate a powdered donut. While being avidly disgusted with Myth I went back to mac and found Blankety this is the perfect nude lippie for me i simply love the color it gives my lips. i would definately purchase it again. This is in my make up bag.
