The red lip is a way to get an all grown up look right now, says Nicky Kinnaird, the beauty maven behind Space NK apothecaries, located throughout the U.S. and Britain. Weve endured several seasons of glosses, and now a more matte red lip is coming back. Kinnaird likes True Red no. 201 from the make-up line By Terry. Its quite elegant and it speaks of confidence.
On its Website, makeup emporium Sephora recommends achieving a siren-esque smile with Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture in no. 20.
Makeup artist and founder of Faces Beautiful, Gail Sagel, reminds women that, when choosing lip shades, you should be mindful of your skin tone. Red can be blue-based or yellow-based, explains Sagel. If you look good in cooler tones, Sagel recommends a blue-based red. For ladies with warmer complexions, she suggests reds with organge or yellow bases.
To hear this triumvirate of beauty tell it, theres definitely a red that works for everyone.
Pair a red lip with a very neutral eye and the result is quite gorgeous, says Kinnaird.
