The Rules for Red Lipstick 2013


Check the Undertone

"Each red has one of three: yellow-orange, blue, or a bit of both (a neutral red). You'll get the best brightening with a blue-based lipstick, because it detracts from the yellow in your teeth." How to tell the difference? Swipe three different red lipsticks on the inside of your wrist: "By having a point of comparison, you'll be able to see the varying undertones in all three." Testing on this part of your arm is ideal; the blue of your veins will help you pick out a lipstick's blue tones.
Try: MAC Cosmetics Lipstick in Russian Red ($15,



Consider Your Skin Tone

"A red that's too blue can make dark skin look ashy, so women with darker or more olive-toned complexions should look for a red with a neutral base."
Try: L'Oréal Paris Colour Riche Lipcolour in British Red ($9, drugstores).


Sample Berries

A bright red lip is definitely a look, so if you're hesitant about committing to full-force scarlet, try a berry hue: "One with blue undertones will have the same smile-whitening effect as a classic red would."
Try: CoverGirl Lip Perfection Lipstick in Euphoria ($7, drugstores).


Avoid Gloss

"A red gloss won't have the same coverage or intensity of pigment as a lipstick. It may appear red on your lips, but it won't change the look of your teeth."


Use Liner

Choose a shade of red that matches your lipstick. "It'll emphasize the color, prevent it from bleeding into lip lines, and help the color last."


so, hope it helped you.
