Wearing Red Lips

Pulling off a red lip can be a bit of a challenge but it can work for everyone. 

Which Hue Are you?

You first have to figure out if you have a warm or cool skin tone. 

• Cool complexions are usually lighter with pink undertone. 
• Warm complexions have yellow, olive and darker undertones. 

If you have a cool complexion, 

choose a true red, pinkish red, Berry reds, plum tones.

If you have a warm complexion 

chose a warmer red with a brown base, like a brick or rusty red, orangey reds, golden reds.

How to Apply?

Line and fill your lips with a lip liner then apply the lipstick.  Next, blot with a tissue and lightly dust your lips with a powder (translucent powder) to give it extra staying powder. Because red rip stick is very dramatic you should keep the rest of the makeup simple. Go for a flawless look. 

Tips:

If you have yellow teeth wear a red shade with blue undertones this will make your teeth whiter because it will not bring out the yellow. 

Until next time,
