CHOOSE THE BEST SHADE OF LIPSTICK FOR YOUR SKIN TONE

There’s nothing worse than buying a new shade of lipstick only to find that it just doesn’t work with your skin tone. Maybe it washes you out. Maybe it makes your skin look pale. Being able to try on a shade of lipstick before you buy it can be nice, but it isn’t always possible to do that. Here are a few tips from Amber Dazzle on how to match your lipstick to your skin tone when you can’t try before you buy. 

Do You Have Fair Skin?

If you have fair skin like Margot Robbie and you like to go bold, you’re in luck. Bold reds and deep colors can pair very well with fair skin – as long as you don’t do burgundy (it can make you look washed out). Nudes and corals can also work, provided that you don’t go too light or with too much of a yellow undertone. For pale skin with pink undertones, stay with your natural palette. Think pinks, corals, and orangey-reds. Avoid any blue-based reds as they’ll clash with your skin tone and end up looking out of balance.
