Beauty Tip: Holiday Red Lips


During the holiday's red lips seem to be a favorite among everybody. Wearing the red lipstick can be a hit or miss for some people, it all depends on how you wear it. Below are some tips and more pics of celebs rocking red lips.


1. Wear soft eyeshadow and subtle so your red lips are not competing with the rest of your face. 

2. When you have a darker skin tone, you should go with a more orange base lipstick. So go with a warmer base tone, you can even do a brown/burgundy base. 
3. Red heads (even if its not natural) can wear red lips too. Just don't go overboard because you will look ridiculous. Don't try to match your hair with your lipstick. 
4. A smokey eye looks good with red lips when going out after 6pm. The smokey eye should also be subtle not to overpower the lips. *NIGHT*
5. Don't be afraid to add a little gloss to your red lips. This is a great makeup idea to copy. *DAY* 

6. A matte look during the day works as well to. 
7. Always use a lip liner when wearing red. 
8. Before you leave the house ALWAYS check your teeth. Red lipstick on teeth is not cute! 

Don't be afraid to experiment when looking for the right shade for you!
