Are you ready to be bold, brave and fearless this winter? Here are some fundamental lipstick colours you need to know about now.
The timeless red lip is the ultimate go-to make-up look. Red lipstick can be the perfect simple pick me up for an extra bold statement for winter lip colours. A well-matched red lipstick can instantly enhance and brighten your face. It can transform any make-up look, whether you go light or dark, there’s a picture-perfect red lip for everyone – a fundamental companion every girl needs to have in their make-up bag.
One style that stands as a catwalk regular is the stained lip. A light dash of colour provides your make-up look with an understated effect. Slightly dab lipstick on the inner part of your lip and carefully blend out with a cotton bud, or your index finger. Top it off with gloss for a high shine result.
A bold lip is the perfect way to transform any make-up look. Start with a flawless over-all base and make the look pop with a dark, enigmatic burgundy red. This colour is ideal for the winter months and the holiday season. Partner with a naked eye for extra vitality.
Want a slice of summer? Instead of a summery light pink lip, try a dark berry coloured lipstick. This shade of lipstick will add a striking feminine effect and will undoubtedly be an eye-catching make-up look you’ll want to wear again.
If you dare to rock an exaggerated and attention-grabbing look, then this one is the look for you. Admittedly, this look will not work for everyone, but experimentation is the key. If you want to slay black lipstick but don’t want to opt for a dark eye-shadow look, then why not tone it down with a lighter eye-shadow shade. You can create that head turning look without committing to the full overstated appearance.
If you’re the type of girl who likes to keep things low key, then an over-all stripped back nude will be the perfect look for you for winter lip colours. Nude lipstick is essential for that laid back and effortless make-up look. It can be worn as a more casual and careless look, and with that comes no worry about smudging or staining. However, you can refine your natural look by adding a defined lip liner and gloss. This will still allow you to achieve a significantly understated look – less is always more.
Be courageous and opt for a prominent hot fuchsia pink. Venture into this striking look and prepare to be noticed. Not only is fuchsia pink fun and flirty, its also bold and brave. Dare to venture and transform any look. Oozing confidence, it is the perfect lip colour for the happy holiday season.
Want to create a low-key and carefree statement with these winter lip colours? Tone it down with a deep, dark nude for them more relaxed wintery nights. Why not add a light, barely-there shimmer for that extra enhancement? An easy, light-hearted and effortless look, keeping it calm and collected for the holiday season – a totally understated look ready for you to slay this holiday season.
