Description
Medium pink brown lip liner with jojoba and shea butter
The pink brown shade has established itself in the lip range as one of the most sophisticated everyday nudes — not fully brown, not fully pink, but exactly that refined interplay that combines character with daily wearability. A lip liner in this medium pink brown shade works both as a contour for pronounced nude lipsticks and as a base layer for the timeless '90s nude' aesthetic. The Jane Iredale Lip Pencil Nutmeg translates that refined complexity into a nourishing, mineral-based formula.
Nutmeg is a medium pink brown with a saturated pink-brown undertone that defines the lips and serves as the base for pink brown and warm nude lipstick and gloss looks. The soft, no-tug formula glides smoothly over the delicate lip skin without pulling, and is based on mineral pigments with nourishing jojoba oil, shea butter, meadowfoam, and macadamia oil. The Jane Iredale lip liner Nutmeg works both as a classic lip liner for definition and as a full base layer to significantly extend the color intensity and wear of pink brown lipsticks.
Color: a medium pink brown with a saturated pink-brown undertone that gives the lips a refined, sophisticated '90s nude' definition.

Active ingredients
Hydrogenated Jojoba Oil: Hydrogenated jojoba oil gives the Jane Iredale lip liner Nutmeg its characteristic smooth glide and prevents the pencil from pulling on the delicate lip barrier. This oil is compositionally similar to the skin’s own sebum, allowing it to be exceptionally well absorbed by the lip skin during wear.
Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter): Shea butter nourishes and protects the lips intensively thanks to its rich composition of fatty acids and vitamins. This butter makes the Jane Iredale lip pencil Nutmeg exceptionally comfortable for long wear — unlike traditional lip liners that often dry out.
Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil: Meadowfoam oil forms a light film on the lips that locks in moisture and helps the color adhere evenly. This is important for a medium pink brown shade like Nutmeg — it prevents pigmentation from settling unevenly on dry spots.
Macadamia Integrifolia Seed Oil: Macadamia oil soothes the lip barrier and has a mild anti-inflammatory effect. Combined with shea butter, this oil creates the characteristic smooth texture of the Jane Iredale lip liner Nutmeg.
Tocopherol (Vitamin E) & Ascorbyl Palmitate (Vitamin C): These two antioxidants protect the lip barrier against free radicals from UV and air pollution during wear. They form a nourishing shield on top of the pencil’s decorative function.
How to use
- Ensure hydrated lips as a base — optionally prepared with a lip balm

- If desired, fill in the entire lips as a base layer for extra color intensity and longevity
- Finish with a pink brown, warm nude, or berry lipstick from the ColorLuxe Cream Lipstick line, or a gloss from the HydroPure or ColorLuxe lines
Suitable for

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the Jane Iredale lip pencil Nutmeg as a solo lip color?
Absolutely. The soothing oils and butters in the formula make Nutmeg exceptionally comfortable to wear as a full lip base. For a matte pink brown look, you can apply the pencil solo — for extra shine, finish with a sheer gloss like HydroPure Summer Peach or Sangria.
Which lipsticks does Nutmeg best suit as a base layer?
The Jane Iredale lip liner Nutmeg works excellently under all pink brown and warm nude lipsticks — especially the ColorLuxe Cream Lipstick in Rosebud, Toffee, and Copper Dune look extra beautiful on this saturated base. Also, under HydroPure Sangria or Mocha Latte, the pencil adds extra color depth.
Why do you specifically recommend a Jane Iredale sharpener?
The wooden casings of the Jane Iredale lip liner Nutmeg and other pencils are soft to prevent splintering during use. Standard sharpeners are often too harsh and can cause the wood to splinter or crush the soft formula. The Jane Iredale sharpener is specially designed to maintain an even, rounded point.
Does the pencil pull on my lips during application?
No. The formula is deliberately developed with soothing jojoba oil, shea butter, and meadowfoam to prevent the Jane Iredale lip liner Nutmeg from pulling on the delicate lip barrier. The smooth glide is one of the distinctive features of this mineral-based pencil line.
