Your Perfect Lipstick Shade by Skin Tone

Saw this inside a magazine, and just HAD to scan! 🙂



 

 If the magazine scan is hard to read, it says:
If you’re fair: Fuschia
A cool pink warms up on fair skin and “gives such a pop of color to the face,” says celebrity makeup artist Kim Baker. Bonus: It also electrifies light eyes.
Your best lipstick: Illamasqua lipstick in Eurydice, $24
If you’re medium: Bubblegum Pink
You can really wear anything, but golden skin is particularly complemented by this girly shade. Feeling edgy? Try it with black eyeliner.
Your best lipstick: L’Oreal Paris Colour Caresse by Colour Riche Luminous Lipcolour in Pink Vinyl, $10
If you’re olive-skined: True Red
The saturated hue balances your slightly green undertones and adds just the right amount of vibrancy. For impact, try lip liner underneath.
Your best lipstick: Tom Ford Lip Color in Wild Ginger, $48
If you’re darker skinned: Purple
Deep violent jumps on dark skin. “The more intense your complexion, the more intense the color needs to be”, says makeup artist Sam Fine.
Your best lipstick: MAC Pro lipstick in Violetta, $15
