5/15/2023 0 Comments Red frost lipstick![]() This is needed to stop the lipstick bleeding which is a common occurance with reds, and also because pencils are precise, meaning you don't have to be so careful with the lipstick later. Powder round your lips to form a dry base for the lip colour (Apply eye make up last, see later for why).Ģ) Apply a lipliner that is similar to your lipstick allover your lips. Just try as much as you can in and check it in both natural and artificial light, take a photo, see how you feel.ġ) It is best to apply any foundation or powder first. Sometimes it just shouldn't work, but it does. Having said that, sometimes sticking to these guidelines means you may be missing out on that perfect red. My redhead friend who is not bright red, but a more subtle ginger used Bourjois' Rouge Allie #17 (from the discontinued Perfect Rouge range, still available from ebay) and it was perfect on her so it's worth a shot as it's a bargain! MAC's Chili is nice and again, Dubonnet or Viva Glam would also possibly work here. Redheads/ginger haired girls should try more rustic or brick reds. I know Collection 2000 in the UK do a red called Red Red which is tomatoey, Barry M also do one called Pillarbox Red, and MAC's Lady Bug and Lady Danger may also work. I'm afraid I don't know much about these as I don't use them often, but think postbox red or tomato red. ![]() Warm/peach toned girls should try warmer reds. Rimmel's Diva Red and GOSH's Lambada are also really good as bright reds. As a yellow toned girl myself, I would recommend MAC's Russian Red and Ruby Woo for bright red lips, then Dubonnet and Viva Glam for darker vampy lips. To get a balance is quite difficult as I find a lot of blue toned lipsticks in drugstores far too pink, but keep searching. The general rule is that cool/yellow toned girls should stick to blue toned reds. Everyone has an idea of what their perfect red looks like, it's just finding it thats the problem. I have heard of girls searching for years and years for that perfect red and still not getting there. The universally popular Russian Red, by MAC I don't want this to be a tutorial as I'm not an expert at all, there are so many good guides on the internet these days so think of this as tips, rather than an expert opinion.
