After being in the beauty industry for over 15 years, I am consistently asked one very popular question, “Will red lipstick look good on me?”
My answer is always, “YES!”
First, I like to think of makeup as an accessory. Accessories are a great way to explore new looks and bold colors choices without making a full commitment to overhaul your entire wardrobe. This is the same approach you should have toward trying new lipstick. Today, wearing bold lip color sends a sign of confidence, strength, and tenacity.
Red is the perfect compliment to jewel tones like emerald green, purple, and royal blue when creating a fashion forward look from head to toe. It also adds the perfect pop of color to any denim or all white ensemble.
Keep in mind, not all reds are created equal. What that, there are 5 that every woman should own. They are rich in color and have a blue undertone that compliments nearly every complexion.
