Undertone + depth analysis

NYX London is a medium brown lip liner with neutral undertones. Its color profile is moderately saturated, so it tends to read as balanced rather than flat on most lip bases. London sits toward the medium end of the brown spectrum and reads more balanced.

What the golden-brown base does

The warm brown undertone can brighten a lip look and make London feel more lively than neutral or cool brown liners.

How the depth wears

The medium depth gives shape without the strong contrast of deeper browns like Espresso or Coffee.

Why undertone matters

On some undertones, London's warmth can be flattering and dimensional; on others, it may pull too orange.
