The right lipstick can brighten your whole face, while the wrong undertone can make you look tired. This lipstick shade finder uses your undertone, the occasion, and your preferred finish to suggest a shade family that is most likely to flatter you. Choose your undertone first, then how bold you want to go, and whether you prefer matte, cream or gloss. The tool gives you a shade family to test, not a single exact product, so it works with any brand. Undertone picks the colour family, occasion picks the depth, and finish picks the texture. Everyday looks stay close to your natural lip colour, office looks are one step deeper, and party looks go bold. A shade one or two tones deeper than your natural lip colour, in a cream or gloss finish, suits almost everyone for daily wear. Exfoliate, apply lip balm, blot, apply a thin layer of powder through tissue, then reapply lipstick. Match it to your undertone first. A classic red works with most outfits if the undertone is right. Matte formulas can be drying, so moisturize lips first and avoid layering too many coats. Soft rose, peach nude or rose nude shades photograph well and do not overpower the rest of the makeup.
