Red Lipstick is like your little black dress, every woman must have at least one in their makeup bag, but it seems like a lot of woman shy away from red.
Well I have put together a few tips to help you choose the perfect shade of red (all reds are not created equal). I personally LOVE bold lips and red.. is my first love!, it reminds me of old Hollywood glamour.. pearls, that little black dress, so I hope that I can sway you into this amazing trend that never goes out of style.
Below are a couple of things you must know before purchasing a fantastic red lipstick:
REDS are divided into 2 categories (based on your skin tone)
1.Warm – If you have a golden, peach or tan skin tone try orange based shades ( Try MAC Chili $14)
2.Cool- If your complexion has undertones of pink, violet or blue, you have a cool complexion, try going with a blue or pink undertone red shade (try MAC Russian Red $14)
A few more tips:
-moisturize your lips and line your lips to create a flawless effect.
- Try patting a bit of red eyeshadow on top (just a little) to help the color stay and not bleed.
-Red lipstick is very dramatic so the rest of your look should stay subtle. (try just a black liner and lashes and soft blush)
