 Red
lips always bring a touch of uber glam sex appeal to any look
whether they're just teamed with jeans, or paired with a glam dress
for a full-on bombshell look.Picking the right shade, though, is
essential. Here's a quick guide to help you pick the right
colour for you -
Pale Skin - True Classic Red is perfect with pale skin, no
matter what your hair colour is. Avoid dark wine reds, unless
your going for a gothic or vampy look. The paler the skin, the
more of a true red shade you can wear.
 Cool
Skin Tones - Blue-Red will compliment cooler skin tones.
Medium - If you have a very pinky complexion, plummier
shades are better. Avoid the orangey and gold-toned reds.
Warm/Tan/Olive Skin - Bright reds go great with warm skin,
not many other
types can pull it off without looking like a clown. Brown and
orange based reds are great but avoid wine shades.
Black Skin - This skin color can pull-off almost any type
of red, it just depends what type of look you want to go for.
Daring and bold opt of bright, orangey-red; but for a more subtle
look, opt for a plum-based shade.
