Why ‘NUDE’ isn’t just one color

I was once asked what my favorite shade of lipstick is, and I remember immediately answering, “nude”, because that is all I ever wear. Then it occurred to me to ask, “is nude a color”? The person I was talking to couldn’t answer the question as well, so we Googled it. We then found out that nude isn’t necessarily limited to a specific color, as it is totally dependent on the wearer’s skin tone.

This totally made sense, but funnily, I don’t think I have ever discussed what nude meant to me as a color. Suddenly, it wasn’t just one color anymore, and the definition of the word nude became different depending on the color of your complexion. I mean, how mind-boggling is it that there is actually a full spectrum of nude tones out there and yet the word nude seems to suggest only one tone or color.

Well, not anymore. Lately, there has been a global effort to provide as many shades of nudes as possible to cater to all skin tones. I have been extra happy about this, as I’ve been seeing a wide range of nude tones in my go-to lipstick, nail polish, clothing, and shoe brands. Most especially in my favorite underwear brand, Avon. Yes, the brand we all know and love recently launched Nude Possibilities which offers us eight amazing nude tones bras, to suit every skin color.

I didn’t fully appreciate how good this campaign was until I saw the deliciously nude colors for myself. From an ivory shade (Light Skintone) to a pinkish white tone (Pink Champagne), a light mauve color (Rose Gold), a buff shade (Dark Skintone), a very naked nude tone (Nude), and darker coffee brown options (Mocha, Coffee and Dark Brown), Avon offers us variety like never before. And that is pretty amazing. If you think about it, this line can match every skin tone and every nude outfit you have, which means these are super versatile and wearable!

Of course, I immediately got myself three different shades of nude bras which I found has allowed me to seamlessly wear every color imaginable in my closet. From crisp whites, to warm blush and pink shades, beiges and nut-colored outfits to browns and blacks, and yes, even color! This line allows me to wear my entire closet with confidence, thanks to its gorgeous designs and incredible fit. Seriously, wearing Avon bras feels like second skin–they are so comfortable.

So okay, of course there is more than just one kind of Avon nude bra (there’s more variety for us ladies). Let me introduce the different kinds of bras available and so you know which ones go best with that specific outfit you plan to wear.

T-SHIRT BRA. These are seamless, contoured bras that are designed to give a smooth and invisible look under tight and lightweight tops. Usually these have minimal designs as they are meant to lend shape and support while looking like second skin. This is perfect for tank tops and t-shirts and all kinds of tight tops and dresses.

INNOVATION BRA. Bras that give you additional benefit compared to your normal bras. These bras are actually so well-designed they offer breathability and a lightweight feel to give you that maximum comfort to wear them all day. These are perfect for our hot weather as it is made with breathable material.

LACED. These are sensuous-looking intimates that have intricate lace designs that allows you to feel sexy under any outfit. If you haven’t worn lace underwear then you wont know how sexy it makes you feel wearing it. Oh, and of course, its an added bonus for the person who sees you wearing it. Lace underwear is so luxurious and sexy!

DEMI UNDERWIRE. For a more natural look, the demi underwire bra cuts low across the whole cup. It usually plunges low enough to show off some cleavage, which makes this perfect for low cut, scoop neck and wide neckline tops.

NON-WIRE BRAS. These are extremely comfortable wireless brassiere that is perfect for everyday wear. The bra has cups that are slightly padded with soft foam but still has support without the extra weight. They are perfect to wear under light and airy clothes.

EXTRA SUPPORT. These bras are designed for women who need extra support (yup, well-endowed ladies, these are for you). From minimizer to shaping and back smoothing bras, Avon offers fashion-forward designs that make you feel confident and sexy.
