Want To Choose Best Lipstick According to Your Skin Tone

 Find Your Perfect Shade

Even if you’ve been a makeup lover for years, this is still an incredibly common (and understandable) experience. Finding the best lipstick for your skintone is no small feat; beauty retailers offer more options than ever before, but only a handful are sure to complement your own unique beauty.

How To Check Your Skin Undertone

Whether your skin is incredibly fair or on the deep side, you should be able to categorize your skin as one of the following: warm, cool, and neutral.

From there, you then determine your shade range, which is generally fair, medium, or deep.

You can learn more tricks to help you determine your skin’s undertone in our blog , but in this article, we’re going to give a rapid-fire strategy so you can determine the best lipstick for your skin tone.

Warm-toned individuals tend to have a hue to their skin that’s either olive, yellow or golden, and you can tell you’re warm if you tend to look best in gold jewelry, and if the veins in your wrist have a greenish color to them.

If you have a cool undertone, this means that your skin has a pink, red, or bluish hue, and you can tell you’re a cool undertone if the veins in your wrist are on the bluer side, if you find you look best in silver jewelry, or if you’re more likely to burn than tan when you’re in the sun.

Then, there’s the neutral undertone. Those with a neutral undertone have a mix of pink and yellow in their skin, and they tend to look great in both silver and gold.

Colors Work Best for Warm Undertones?

The rule of thumb is simple: if your undertone is warm, opt for warm-toned lipsticks.

But if you’re not well-versed in color theory, we’re here to simplify things.

Warm-hued lipsticks tend to have reddish, orange, peachy, or even yellowish undertones like corals, golds, and browns.

For the perfect warm nude, stick with something on the peachy side, and go for pinks with warm-hued corals. If you’re a warm undertone, you can even rock a fiery red or a bold orange, but if you prefer something more subdued, any rosy-pink shade will look stunning on you.

Colors Work Best for Cool Undertones?

Naturally, those with a cool undertone look best in cool-toned lipstick shades.

But what do cool-toned lipsticks look like?

Cool-toned lipsticks can be found in hues like cherry, wine, plum, mauve, crimson, and violets. For instance, your ideal red lipstick will be more toward a deep bluish-red, like crimson or cherry. Berry shades tend to look especially flattering if you’re cool-toned.

Colors Work Best for Neutral Undertones?

So, you’ve tried every one of the tricks to determine your undertone, and you’ve found that you look just as beautiful in your gold necklace as you do in your silver one.

This likely means that you have a neutral undertone, and good news: just about every lipstick shade looks great on you!

As a neutral undertone, you’ll be able to rock warm or cool lipsticks, so feel free to try that berry-magenta shade, or that bold orange gloss. The possibilities are endless when everything suits you!
