Are you looking to glam it up for a night on the town? Try adding a dash of red to your face for a red carpet-ready look with brassy yet classy lipsticks.
Although there are countless cosmetic companies peddling products to make women look and feel beautiful, there's nothing quite like red lipstick. And, these days, the more red the lips, the better!
If you're used to neutral shades, your first attempt at wearing red can be intimidating. How do you know which red lipstick is right for you?
Unfortunately, it all boils down to two words: trial and error. Grab a friend and hit the makeup counter at the nearest department store to start looking. The makeup experts there can help you find something that you like that will make your lips pop without being overpowering.
Pay attention to the different lipstick hues that are offered. Some cosmetic companies offer lipsticks with orange hues. Other lipsticks hues are darker shades of burgundy. Some may appear to look too bright, like the candy apple red shades that only look appropriate at Halloween. Additionally, you'll have to choose between a gloss, shimmer or matte look. Each will make the red appear slightly different, and either more -- or less -- appropriate for your face.
