Lipstick is the first thing that comes to mind when we think about makeup. Lipstick can make you look better in a second, but only if you choose the right one. So, how do you pick the perfect lipstick? Based on your skin, hair, and eyes color and lip shape!

Cool, Warm or Neutral?

Figuring out your skin undertone is important if you want your lipstick to be flattering. Girls with cool undertone should go with cool lipstick shades (blueish, purplish, etc.) Avoid corals and oranges. On the contrary, girls with warm undertone look best with warm-colored lipsticks that have orange and yellow tones. Neutral undertone should be able to pull off both.

Lip Shape

If one of your lips is slightly bigger than the other, you can make them look more symmetrical by playing with light and shadow.

Hair Color

When you change your hair color, it’s possible that the old lipsticks won’t work for you anymore. Have that in mind.

Eye Color

The matching undertone works with eye color, too, so if they are warm (like brown and green) pick the warmer lipstick shades and with cool eyes (blue, gray), go with cooler lips.
