Which lipstick is right for you?

So, usually I come across dolls wearing some odd-coloured lipstick, like fluro green, bright yellow or even white. Unless it's part of a costume, it always looks odd and stands out like a sore thumb. So, which colours should you wear?
There are so many different types of reds, pinks, browns and light whites/neutral peaches that go with almost anything and everything. I myself always use a neutral colour no matter what outfit.

A trend right now is red lipstick - but you have to wear it with the right makeup, not too overdone or underdone. What make-up should you use? Well, the safest choice is smokey eyes - it's easy to do and it matches just right with reds. You should also, if you have it, add a Luxe lipgloss/free Maybelline lipgloss over the top, so you can outline your lips and give it that extra style. As you can see to the right, the lipgloss helps make it so it doesn't look overdone. I would suggest only adding a light blush, if any, because the bright red blush will be just a bit too over-the-top.


Something else that is trending right now is the brown lipstick. Now, it also goes with smokey eyes, and just about every colour. Wearing it with yellows and greens is probably your best bet, but it also looks good with blended colours. Your worst choice, would probably be pinks & purples like on the left - it may look okay to some but, depending on the outfit, there's just something slightly odd about the way it looks.. in my opinion, anyway.






So, I hope this helps you to find the right lipstick for your outfit, make-up & medoll! (:
