As soon as we hear the word “makeup,” our minds immediately go to lipstick. The features of your face can be dramatically altered by applying lip colour. Choosing a colour that complements your skin tone and personality is essential.
Choosing a new lipstick can be a frustrating experience, especially if you can’t seem to find the right shade, like is it too dull, bright, red, peach, shiny, or too obnoxious. In addition, there are so many colours and brands, making it difficult to find exactly what you want. How are you supposed to know what’s best for you?
Don’t worry, we have put together this colour palette and quick guide to help you in selecting the lipstick shade that will suit you the best based on your skin tones and personality.
If you are also interested in more advanced version of “general rule of thumb” in finding the best lipstick shade for you? There are three more ways you can try: Skin Undertone, Skin Tone and Personality. Our team at Lips Carpenter believes the more important thing is you feel good and confident in the lipstick shade you wear, it doesn’t matter what general rules say or what people say! #BeYourself
One way to find your go-to lipstick is to know the undertone of your skin. This makes it easy to find a shade of lipstick that brings out the best in your skin. There are three types of undertone: warm, cool, and neutral. You can figure it out in a few really simple ways.
Cool undertones:
Lipsticks with blue or purple undertones are considered cool-toned. Plum, cherry, mauve, crimson, and purple shades are all good options.
Warm undertones:
Warm lipsticks have reddish to orange undertones and tend to be more orangey, with shades ranging from coral and gold to brown and sienna. The best colours for your skin tone are peachy pinks, orange-toned reds, and rosy pinks.
Neutral undertones:
Neutral undertones can choose almost any colour. Rose gold shades flatter almost every skin tone. Subtle pinks, deep berries, nudes and mauves will look best on your lips!.
Knowing your skin tone is the next step in finding your perfect red lipstick. Skin tones are divided into three categories: fair, medium, and deep.
Fair skin tones:
Lipstick really pops on fair skin, so once you find the perfect colour for your lips, you can have a lot of fun with it. If you want to look your best, stick to pinks and reds, but avoid anything too light or yellow.
Medium skin tones:
Because of your skin’s neutral undertones, you can get away with wearing almost any colour without looking silly. Choose from nude, pink, red, or even orange lipsticks based on your outfit.
Deep skin tones:
The use of dark reds and berry tones brings out the best in darker skin tones. Unless you want a bright, statement lipstick, avoid anything too light. Deeper shades will be more flattering for a delicate, everyday look.
