There are several factors to consider when it comes to choosing a shade of lipstick, including the color of your skin tone and hair, and even the color of your attire.
How to choose a shade of lipstick.
- Always prepare the surface of your lips before applying your lipstick, by exfoliating and applying moisturizing lip balm. This will give your lipstick a better hold and give your lips a more polished appearance.
- When trying to find the perfect shade: we recommend to let a makeup artist choose 3 colors that he finds fit for you, that way you can compare and really pick which one you like best. It is also very important to try it on! The color you see on your hand might change once you apply it on your lips.
- If your are looking for an everyday lip color, let the makeup artist know what your outfit color pattern is on a daily basis. If you are looking for a special occasion, specify what you will be wearing.
- Do you need a liner? If you are applying dark colored lipstick, it is essential! In addition to preventing smudging, the pencil allows for a more precise finish. It also helps create a more neutral look, while also helping to maximize the hold of your lipstick, when the pencil is applied as a base.
- Don’t forget : before applying lipstick, it is very important to neutralize your skin tone with the right complexion products in order to make your lip color pop!
