How do you find the right shade of lipstick?

im semi-pale and have red hair... i was just wondering if there are any guide lines to choosing a lip color? im kind of dense when it comes to the whole make-up thing.How do you find the right shade of lipstick?
That's a good question. Since you don't have too much experience with the whole makeup thing, I recommend you go to a Department Store counter to get help choosing the right lipstick if it's your first time. The beauty advisors can be helpful. But from what you're telling me about your skin and hair I would recommend warm shades for you, more bronze corals, peaches, and neutrals.How do you find the right shade of lipstick?
The best way to find a color that suites you is to know what your undertone is. There is warm/cool and so, different shades look different. I suggest going to a MAC counter (them being the most expert makeup artists I've seen) and ask them to help you determine what your undertone is.
Go to a makeup counter, like MAC and have them tell you what undertones you have and whether you are cool, warm, or neutral. They will give you an idea of what colors look great on you. I have bought some wonderful lipstick colors at that store. Good Luck!
Me too. But the advice I always hear is it should match close to the color of the inside of your lips. If you pull down gently on your bottom lip that's the color you should go for.
im pale with red hair and i use a rose colour, like a nicer enhancement of my natural lip colour.
u just gotta go to a cosmetics counter and try them on b/c we all have a different shade of lip color.
i think i natural pink would look really pretty on you.
