What lipstick shade would suit me?

Uh, so basically, I wanna try a lipstick, just not sure what shade. (:


Background information..


I have darkish olive toned skin, light brown eyes, kinda hazel in the sun, and my hair is dark brown (looks black in artificial light, looks like it has a red undertone in the sun).


Plus, I'm 15. My style is kinda retro.. Oh and I always wear liquid eyeliner with little flicks at the end, if that helps at all.. Any suggestions? (:What lipstick shade would suit me?

I think Pink lipstick or gloss is better for you.





Estee Lauder pink gloss is very beautiful^_^....
Try lipstick from MAC it called MOCA


it will be very nice on you
i would go with burts bee. lipstick is OUT especially when your 15.
definity a red or a dark marron would match ur skin tone
pink lipstick or gloss will suit you
red mauve
Your olive skintone can either be warm or cool since blue (cool color) and yellow (warm color) make green. Look at the veins under your arms like on your wrists. Do they look more greenish or blueish? If they look blue, you have blue undertones %26amp; if they look green, you have green undertones.





Blue undertones: you can pick a lipstick that also has blue undertones. Pink and red shades of lipsticks with blue undertones can be more of a purpleish-pink looking color like fuscia or a berry looking pink. They might seem ';deeper';. Try to see if you can find a purple tone in the shade of pink or red color you're looking at %26amp; it'll most likely have blue undertones.





Green undertones: pick a lipstick that has warm tones. It can be like a coral pinkish color, or a reddish-orangeish color, or neutral red/pink etc. They might look more vibrant than deep. (But that doesn't mean lighter or darker)...








If you don't pick up right away what has cool undertones vs. warm undertones, it's ok because you kind of have to train your eye. If you don't understand, you can go to a makeup counter at the mall and ask the ladies to show you the warm toned lipsticks (or the cool lipsticks if you have cool undertones). The makeup at the mall is better anyways because the products usually have better looking colors %26amp; they're better quality overall. Hope this helped
