Everyone needs a few nude lipsticks in their makeup arsenal. It's an absolute necessity for an everyday look. And while some of the best nude lipsticks can be pretty costly (looking at you, Tom Ford), there are some amazing drugstore shades, too. Here, seven celebrity makeup artists tell us their favorites.

Burt's Bees Suede Splash Lipstick. "It's that perfect shade that enhances your natural lip color and takes it up just a notch without looking lipstick-y. I attribute that to the color balance of just the right amount of nude to look chic and understated, combined with a rosiness that won't wash you out." —Suzy Gerstein, who works with Christy Turlington Burns

Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick-Kate Moss Collection in #014. "It has a semimatte finish, but it's still hydrating. It also has a great undertone—nudes can be tricky because they're usually either too orange or too pink, but this one, especially for the price, is the most universally flattering." —Tonya Crooks, who works with Megan Fox

Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lip Color in Seduction. "It's an excellent formula because it can be worn opaque or sheer. It's a long-wear lipstick that stains the lips with a soft and healthy tone. There's also no need to keep reapplying." —Edward Cruz, who works with Priyanka Chopra

NYX Simply Nude Lip Cream in Sable. "It's a beautiful matte nude that complements most skin tones without being too harsh or washing out your lips completely." —Robert Greene, who works with Tinashe

Wet n Wild MegaLast Lip Color in Bare It All. "Anybody can wear this shade as a nude. It has the perfect amount of peach and mauve to give the lips a little color while still looking natural." —Daniel Chinchilla, who works with Ariana Grande

Rimmel Lasting Finish By Kate Nude Collection in #45. "It smells sweet, it's hydrating, and it has a little pink in it so I don't look washed out when I wear it." —Jamie Greenberg, who works with Tracee Ellis Ross

L'Oréal Colour Riche Lipcolour in Fairest Nude. "The creamy consistency makes it easy to apply, since it has omega 3, vitamin E, and argan oil. Nude lip tones tend to be either on the pink or peachy side, and I find that this color is a happy medium for light to dark complexions." —Kristine Cruz, a makeup artist with Antonio Prieto Salon in New York City who works with Mary-Louise Parker
