Red lip color for a super-pale redhead
Red lip color for a super-pale redhead
I've been poking around the red lip colors, trying to figure out if there is one that would work for me. I'm super-super-pale (and warm toned), with red hair. And I don't like anything very dramatic. I have Nectar and Genuine. Is there anything else that might work for me?
Re: Red lip color for a super-pale redhead
have you considered tease? according to its description it is specifically targeted at "pale girls with yellow undertones - Irish, Scottish, Scandinavian, Eastern European" and on me (pale and yellow) it comes off as a really nice light, sheer red.
i also love strawberry fields, which (on me) is very similar to tease. like the name suggests, it looks super juicy and fresh, like you just ate strawberries. it was my wedding lippie, too

How about Symphony in the Black Label line? It's classified as "Cool" but on my lips it was warmer than I expected. It's very, very sheer. The Black Label formula is my favorite because it's so moisturizing. (I always apply a coat of the clear Black Label Smooth and Full under every lippie.)

Great ideas! Thank you!
I do actually have Tease. Some days it looks "kapow" on my lips...and other days it is great. I will play around with it a bit more!
And Symphony--I had forgotten about that one! I had it a long time ago, loved it for a while, and then fell out of love and swapped it. But I think I better try it again. It was a glamorous color on me, I think.
Thank you ladies!

Strawberry Fields looks the most flattering me out of all the red shades I've tried. I think part of it is because it is so sheer, so you can control the brightness of it.
