The Oiapoque region, located in the extreme north of the state of Amapá, has historically been known for bringing together different indigenous peoples, being characterized as a multilingual and multiethnic area. Thus, this study aims to describe the Portuguese spoken by indigenous people of the Karipuna do Amapá, focusing on the lexical variation of the items calcinha and rouge. The theoretical framework includes studies on dialectology, geolinguistics and lexical variation (CARDOSO, 2010; COMPOY, 1999; CHAMBERS, TRUDGILL, 1984). With regard to the methodology adopted, the model of Pluridimensional and Contactual Dialectology is used (ALTENHOFEN; THUN, 2016), which seeks to control linguistic and extralinguistic variables. For data collection, questionnaires were applied to 36 indigenous collaborators distributed in nine villages of the Karipuna do Amapá. The results showed that for the item calcinha, the respondents answered calcinha, biquíni(biquinho) and anágua, while for the item rouge, the pó compacto, maquiagem, blush and talco variants were registered.
