Lipstick..

[princessno1]

Hey everybody!

i know you girls are all sooo trained in the beauty stuff so...

i need some help!
i cantt seem to decide which lipstick colour i look good in..
could you girlz help me?

Im asian, have black hair, hazel eyes, and my skin if not too dark and not too light either, so what type of lipstick do you lot think i should wear?

by the way..please dont say red, it doesnt suit me lol

I think plum might suit you well. If you feel that's too dark for you, you might want to try a wash of color with a plum gloss.

Yes Plum would look great, another one that would be nice is a Rosewood color Pink with brozne undertones or a brickred, again red with a brown undertone not a blue or orange undertone.
Some Light pinks but you would probably need a primer for those to show nicely.

erm i know this is a stupid question (but i know nothing about makeup really)

but what do you mean by undertone judi?

Thanks for helping

[Judi]

Undertones are in all makeup swipe some on your hand and in good light you can pick up yellow, blue, orange undertones in almost all makeup
So lets say you were someone with yellow undertone in your skin, you would not want a yellow undertone in your foundation.
I hope that helps.

Browns and Wine Color would look great for night makeup for parties etc. For day time, I think plums and toned-down pinks would go well.

The best way to determine would be to go to a cosmetics counter and use their testers and find out for yourself.

They're right. Plum shades would work well for you.

If you think the color's too much, use gloss instead. Maybelline and L'Oreal both have fine selections of lipstick and lip glosses.
