It is only after you have decided on what colour to use, try it on your lips and test the color in natural light, it might suit you and if it does not, try another colour.
1. Pink: This colour emphasizes facial features. If you have thin lips or sharp nose avoid such colours. It also emphasizes all red skin tones. Pink lipstick suits blonde women.
2. Orange: Looks great on warm skin tones, but if the skin is very pale and fair, orange will emphasize this feature. Too much of orange can make skin look gray and aging. Depending on their colour shade, redheads can use this colour. If the red color is very bright, try not to use a bright orange shade for your lips as it will contrast with the hair.
3. Red: This colour has similar characteristics as the pink lipstick, but this is a much warmer color and it has a more effect, adding shine. Using red lipstick needs confidence and it matches all hair colours. If you are a blonde, use dark red lipstick and use light shades of red if you are brunette.
4. Brown and gold shades of lipstick: It gives a dramatic look. You have to be aware that dark lipstick colors thickens the lips and can add some more years to your age, making you look older than usual. Also, a brown or gold lipstick matches any hair color.
