How to Choose the Right Lipstick Undertone
Share
Finding a beautiful lipstick is about more than choosing a color you like.
Undertone can influence how that color appears against your skin.
Understanding Warm Undertones
Warm undertones often have golden, peach, or yellow qualities.
Warm lipstick shades may include:
- Terracotta
- Coral
- Warm brown
- Peach
- Cinnamon
- Golden nude
Understanding Cool Undertones
Cool undertones often have pink, red, or bluish qualities.
Cool shades may include:
- Blue-based pink
- Berry
- Plum
- Cool brown
- Rose
Understanding Neutral Undertones
Neutral undertones sit between warm and cool.
This can give you flexibility to experiment with both categories.
Don’t Be Afraid to Break the Rules
Undertone guides are helpful, but they are not laws.
If you love a shade, wear it.
The best lipstick is ultimately the one that makes you feel confident.
