Always be careful when choosing a lipstick color. With it, you can give your look a natural and sophisticated look, as well as place the right accent in your makeup. But you can make a mistake with the choice, and spoil the whole image that was so diligently created. Having picked up the right shade, you can both "rejuvenate" for several years, and add age.
How to choose the right lipstick color so that it is in harmony with your appearance. It is necessary to take into account all the main factors: age, which plays a large role in the choice and features of the color type.
We take into account the hair color
Cold and warm blondes
Feel free to choose gentle pink tones. The best option would be a peach color, nude, ideal for creating a natural make-up. For a party with friends, choose darker tones, fuchsia, tender salmon, but not very saturated.
Be wary of lipsticks in rich red shades.
For redheads
The best option would be a neutral brown lipstick in nude shades, and you can also take note of orange and plum. Add burgundy notes to evening looks, which will add extravagance to the look.
Black-haired girl
Do not use chocolate and coral colors, otherwise you risk getting a gray skin. Take a closer look at rich dark pink tones, and red will also look good in any version and design.
Brunettes
They will be able to choose any suitable bright color for themselves. Brown-haired women fair skinned people are the most fortunate, as almost any shade of lipstick suits them.
We take into account when choosing age
Here the logic is simple - the older the lady, the lighter the lipstick. Older women are very comfortable with pastel colors, especially since they will make wrinkles less noticeable. As for the red color, then finally find your own shade - and use it with pleasure until a ripe old age!
It is better for very young ladies to choose a lip gloss with a barely noticeable pink or pearly pearl shade. It is better to choose a lipstick by a tone similar to the color of the lips.
We take into account the shape of the lips
If nature has endowed you with large lips, feel free to choose a dark lipstick. And if the lips are small, then most likely you will have to stop at the choice of a light shade, it will visually add volume.
For those who by nature cannot boast of the shape of their lips, it is better to postpone lipstick in pearlescent shades, as it emphasizes all the shortcomings.
There is a little trick that helps to visually enlarge the lips and give them volume. Paint your lips with lipstick of a suitable shade, and then, in the center of the upper and lower lips, add a drop of sheer lip gloss, and a highlighter between the upper lip and nose.
Helpful hints:
- If you want the lipstick to last on your lips all day, try applying it in several layers, blotting each layer thoroughly with a tissue;
- Use lip liner, even if you just put on chapstick or gloss, so it will not run;
- Do not use lipstick in raspberry or lilac tones if you have yellow plaque, as it will further emphasize this deficiency;
- So that lipstick or gloss during wearing does not flow into the cracks of the lips, during application, make a "smile from ear to ear";
- In order to compensate for rather large facial features, you can use matte lipstick, which will favorably emphasize the oval of the face;
- When buying the perfect lipstick for yourself, it will not be superfluous to look at the expiration date, as well as the composition. Lipstick that has passed the expiration date will have an unpleasant odor and the wrong consistency.
As a reminder, the spring / summer 2017 makeup trend is the lack of bright lipstick on the face. Most makeup artists preferred lipsticks - balm, gloss, natural shades, although everything is fleeting in the fashion world.
