Red lip colour has been a popular choice for many girls. They are said to be the statement lips. Red is a favourite shade of females with bright colour complexion. Picking us a ruby pout or wine colour lips and pairing them with loose curls is a style statement. But unfortunately picking up a perfect red is not at all easy. Here are some tips to resolve this problem. Find your red: Figure out if your skin has warm or cool undertones. Rule: If you have a yellow-ish skin tone, you are warm, pink-ish skin tone means you’re cool. An orange-based red suits the former, while a blue or pink-based red is for the latter. Apply in natural, bright lighting: Good lighting makes sure that the colour is in line. If you spot any uneven lines, use a clean, stiff concealer brush to fix it. Make sure your teeth aren’t stained. Say no to gloss: Opt for matte or cream reds, as gloss lipsticks tend to smear. Try the blotting trick: Dip a big make-up brush in clear powder and hold a tissue up to your lips. Brush it over the tissue to make your lip colour stay longer without looking cakey. Break some rules: Create a balanced look. If you’re pairing red lips with smokey eyes or a bold dress, leave your hair simple and your accessories understated. *Note: When wearing red lipstick, go easy on the make-up. Let your lips be the only statement
