The Perfect Shade Of Lipstick And Lip Gloss For Your Lips

Picking the right shade of lipstick or lip gloss that matches your lips color can be pretty tricky, but it isn't so complicated after all. In this age of fashion, style demands that you put into consideration every single detail in your outfit and that includes your lipstick.

 The Easy Way to Picking the Right Lipstick Color

 If you ask me, the best way to test a lipstick color to see if it matches your face is by wearing it with no makeup on your face.

 To test shades, apply lipstick or lip gloss to either the upper lip or lower lip. If the color is just a shade or two darker than the bare lip which you have not applied lipstick, then that's definitely your perfect shade. 

When you visit department stores you will find all sorts of very attractive lipsticks but not all of them will come out great on your lip.

 Make up artists have come to the conclusion that the best lip tones will be one or two shades deeper than your natural lip color. That's the secret to picking the right lipstick. But often times you might be buying your lipsticks or lip gloss from grocery stores or department stores where you can't test your lipsticks before you buying them. One way to test it will be by checking in a mirror the color printed on the lipstick box if it matches your lips.

 How to Wear Red Lipstick

 The one color of lipstick that come out great on virtually every woman is red lipstick, but unfortunately a hand full of women still believe they can't wear red lipstick.

 The one secret to picking the perfect red lip color is in the undertones. Girls with dark skin look gorgeous with deep red lip color. Fire- engine red go well with olive skinned girls. Pink skinned girls look great with cherry red.

 However, I would advice that you don't match your lips with your outfit. Like for instance, you are wearing red lipstick, a red skirt and are a blouse with red on it. That won't only make you look generic but ridiculous. In an outfit, it is best that your dress complement each other (your skirt and your blouse or what ever kind of outfit you are wearing) and at the same time contrast your skin.

 Color is the basic secret of fashion, if you get the color right you will definitely look fabulous.

 More Options for Picking the Right Lipstick Color

 Picking the right shade is as simple as choosing a lipstick that's a couple of shades darker than your natural lip color, lets consider a more detailed way of picking the right lipstick color by looking at the shades and skin.

 Shades such as nudes in a slightly apricot shade, pinks and light corals look exceptionally great in girls with fair skin.

 Girls with medium skin tone can go a bit darker. They look fabulous in berries, mauves and roses. It is advised that you don't use bright reds, you can consider a dark burgundy instead.

 Chocolate, deep plum or red is great with dark or black skinned girls. It is advised that girls with dark skin go with caramel or walnut during the day, and plum or wine at evening.
