Perfectly done red lips like the ones sported by Taylor Swift, Dita von Teese, Rihanna and Cameron Diaz are a rage once again. More and more women these days are seen opting for shades of red to add a bold look to their ensemble.
While selecting the shade of red one has to make sure that it suits the skin tone. All shades of red come with different undertones of yellow-orange, blue, or a bit of both, which decides whether the lip color is a bright red or a darker shade.
Choosing the right shade is not enough. When going for the daring look, the eye makeup should be subtle and the foucs should be the lips. It is also important to learn the right technique to apply the lip color, which includes the use of a lip liner so that the color doesn’t bleed ( a bleeding red color is big put-off).
Applying the color perfectly takes some time and effort but the results are worth it. Xsparkage shows a great way of applying the lip color and how to prevent it from bleeding.
