No matter what you are wearing and how shabby you are feeling, all you need are red lips to perk your mood and, eventually, day up. Nothing can change one’s appearance like the red lipstick, in an instant. Here are a few tips to keep in mind to rock the look: - There are a lot of shades available in red ranging from scarlet to coral to the shocking.
Choose the colour that goes best with your complexion. There is no rule that forbids someone with a dark complexion from wearing a red lipstick; the perfect shade is all you need.
- The red lipstick looks good mostly with a matte finish and it lasts long too, not to mention it adds to the classic look. So don’t hesitate to shell out a little more than usual and opt for a good brand that guarantees you both.
- When you choose to go with a red lipstick, keep the rest of the makeup subtle. The highlight should be on your lips, hence let the attention not drift away from by indulging in drama in other areas.
- When applying red lipstick, first use a lip-liner and fill in the lips to avoid the lipstick from bleeding out. Occasionally, check your lips and do a touch up as and when required without getting too conscious.
- Last but not the least, if you have a killer attitude then you can carry off pretty much anything. Just think of Audrey Hepburn and Gwen Stefani for inspiration.
