A red lipstick is like the perfect accessory to any outfit especially a black dress. It’s an energizing color that adds to a woman’s confidence, class and sex appeal when she paints her lips. It can be worn day or night. However, finding the perfect color can be tough when it comes to your undertone. I typically mix two red tones to achieve my perfect lip. Below are few tips if you’re searching for what’s right for your complexion. Different shades and undertones call for some mixing and matching, so let’s get started. 

  1. First, know the texture you’re going for. I live for a great matte lipstick. The color tends to be more rich. In regards to texture, you have a choice of cream, matte or gloss. I love a good gloss only when I’m looking for a clean, more natural look. 

  2. Experiment with different shades. Sometimes, I go for the bright reds in the beauty section. Most of the time, you’ll end up with a various shades of red. Don’t be discouraged just be sure to get creative with your pallet by layering and mixing cord to fit your complexion. Some people can find one particular red lipstick to fit their skin tone while others have to deepened or lighten with brown, beige, pink, or wine colors underneath.

  3. Finally, always keep your lips hydrated and exfoliated.  It only enhances the color and consistency when the color can easily be applied.
