I like the concept of nude tones but there never really is anything on the market that matches my skin tone to class as "nude" on me - its either pink or pale beige and I would have to subject it to soaking in cold tea to get it the right colour!Veshoeviushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435514642440232185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8327217397152414129.post-47371040822124299142011-07-19T09:32:13.147-07:002011-07-19T09:32:13.147-07:00You look fantastic!
