Hi, All of us are very familiar with bold lip colors. Definitely we have some bold colors in our lip ware collection. We see people /friends/celebrities wearing awesome lip shades, but on trying those shades ourselves, it may be a complete failure. And of course we have to wear some bold colors on some occasions even if we are not a big fan of bold colors. The greatest dilemma comes from selecting the perfect shade that enhance your overall look and appearance. Here I am providing some tips to select the perfect bold lip color for you.
1. Select based on your Undertone
This is the basic step you have to follow. Find whether you have a warm/neutral/cool skin undertone. Check the veins of your wrist: If they appear green, you have a warm skin tone. If they are blue, you are cool-toned. If you have a difficulty in identifying the color of veins, you have a neutral skin tone.
Warm Tone: Select a shade with Orange undertone. The shades like Orange red, Coral, Peach are look flattering on you.
Cool Tone: Pick a shade with blue or purple undertone. The shades best suits for cool undertone are Red with blue tinge, Magenta,Rosy pinks.
Neutral Tone: If you are neutral-toned, you can select any shades comes under both this categories
2. Know your skin tone
Fair Skin:
Fair and very fair skins are always complemented with bold shades. Red or raspberry lips enhance your overall look. If you are cool toned, Pick a bluish red and if warm toned, select an orange red.
My suggestions for fair skin,
Cool undertone: MAC Russian Red
Revlon Showy
MAC Diva
Warm undertone: Loreal pure vermeil
Revlon Dahlia
MAC Lady Danger
Medium Skin:
Pink and Berry shades best suits for Medium skin. For cool-undertones, try a magenta or cranberry, coffee brown shade. For warm-undertones, select a bronze or tangerine shade.
