Finding the best red lipstick for your complexion

FAIR COMPLEXION

CHERRY

 

According to makeup artiste, Susie Sobol, cherry reds contrast with pink undertones in fair skin to make lips pop. Enhance by adding a little pink blush, crisp black liner, and black mascara.

FAIR COMPLEXION

CRANBERRY

If you are looking for something more grown-up, rich cranberry warms up fair skin tones and makes you look sophisticated and not vampire-ish

 

FAIR COMPLEXION

WINE

The effect of wine red lipstick against porcelain skin is striking. Make up artist Sobol suggests those with lighter skin stay away from brown and brick reds.

 

MEDIUM COMPLEXION

ORANGE-RED

This fiery orangey shade is great against warm or medium complexions.

 

MEDIUM COMPLEXION

BLACKBERRY

The blackberry - red lipstick is sophisticated on medium complexions, especially when blended with a creamy berry blush over the apples of your cheeks.

DARK COMPLEXION

TANGERINE

This orange punch shade really stands out against darker skin tones. To make it last, first fill in lips with a lip-liner in the same shade as the lipstick.

 

DARK COMPLEXION

MAROON

This deep, deep red is elegant and flattering against dark skin. Stronger shades look best with little makeup elsewhere.

 

DARK COMPLEXION

RASPBERRY

This bright raspberry lipstick complements dark complexions. Top it with clear lip gloss for a juicy finish.
