How to Choose the Right Lipstick for Your Skin Tone?

Although fair skin has been considered to be the prettiest in Indian culture for several years, and there have been many biases in Indian society about fair-skinned women, it is important to note that women with fair complexion can experiment with a very limited range of shades when it comes to makeup, especially lipsticks. This is because most shades that are very bright or very dark tend to look very dramatic and jazzy on fair skin. In fact, certain browns, deep reds, and dark purples tend to make fair-skinned women look much older than they actually are!

 

Among the Barva Skin Therapie lipsticks, we recommend the following shades for fair skin:

In case of medium/wheatish skin, which is the most common skin color found in India, most colors go very well without looking dressy. Women with this skin color can experiment with a wide range of shades when it comes to makeup. Most colors don't look jazzy or gaudy, hence, if your color is medium, you need not hesitate to choose any shade of lipstick, apart from neutrals such as very light pink or brown and very very bright orange, red, and pink.

Gone are the days when people looked down upon dark skin. Now, dark skin is considered among the most appealing and attractive skin colors around the world.

In case of dark skin, most medium to dark shades of pinks, reds, and even browns suit dark skins well. The key is not to go overboard with very bright and light colors, especially those with orange or blue undertones. However, those with warm undertones, such as copper, chocolate, terra cotta, etc. look really flattering on dark skin.
