How to Choose Your Nipple Cover Shade

Quick answer: pick the shade closest to your skin tone. If you are between two shades, choose the lighter one. NIUD Covers are fully opaque, so the shade only needs to blend with your skin. It does not need to match your nipple colour.

The three NIUD shades

From lightest to deepest: Cream, Caramel and Cinnamon.

How to check your shade

  1. Look at your skin in daylight, not under warm indoor light.
  2. Compare the skin around your chest, which is often lighter than your face and arms.
  3. If two shades look close, choose the lighter one.

What if my nipples are darker than my skin?

That is normal, and it does not change your shade. NIUD Covers are fully opaque, so the shade closest to your skin still hides darker nipples.

Under white and sheer tops

Under white or light-coloured fabric, a shade close to your skin blends best. The ultra-thin edges help the cover disappear under sheer tops.
