Orange lips are now ‘a thing’. Yes, we said orange. While it isn’t most girls’ choice when it comes to statement lips, orange actually brightens the complexion.
As with red lipstick, no matter what your skin colour or tone, there is an orange to suit you.
Here’s an easy guideline:
– Warm skin tones should look for yellow-orange. Gold shimmer will add to the effect.
– Cool skin tones will do best in coral hues with lighter, almost sliver shimmer.
If you have a light complexion…
You can get away with pastel shades, leaning towards true orange, oranges.
If you have an olive complexion…
You will rock bright tangerine shades best.
If you have a dark complexion…
You are able to wear any shade from pale peach all the way through to brick orange.
