Why Are These The Best Lipstick Shades For Neutral Light Skin?
If you have light skin with a warm undertone these three lipstick shades are going to be the perfect place for you to start. Your makeup bag won’t be complete without a deep rosy pink, berry, and mauve. We’ve gone into detail about each shade below, but for now let’s talk WHY.
When choosing lipsticks for someone with a similar look as Melissa pictured here, we’re really focused on enhancing features. The great thing about these colors is she’ll likely be able to still wear them as her features change over time. Maybe with only slight adjustments to how bold the colors are worn.
Let’s talk base lip color, the color your lips are with nothing on them. This is important because our lipsticks are designed to blend WITH your natural lip color not completely cover it up. So, these lipsticks would look different on someone who started off with a brown or purple base lip color, and may not be our first choices.
Melissa’s base lip color is a light nude and is slightly different than the color in her complexion. Knowing your base lip color allows you to find lipstick shades that are just a shade deeper for a “my-lips-but-better” look – the perfect everyday lipstick for looking pulled together without any effort. It’ll be your go-to, everyday lipstick.
If your base lip color is anywhere in the nude range these are good choices for you.
Unpinkable – Bold Power Color
This fuchsia-y pink is a great choice for a bolder lip color. Just be careful to not overpower your complexion by applying it too heavily. Our recommendation would be to apply it in layers using a lip brush. This way you have complete control over how bold you’d like to go. Melissa is pictured wearing this lovely pink lipstick above.
Unpinkable is a very pigmented smooth and creamy lipstick with no shimmer. It’s a that has an ever so slight, teeny bit of red in it. This lipstick is a warm color with cool undertones. It’ll look great on a variety of skin tones.
Berry Blast – Flattering Everyday Shade
Berry Blast is a super flattering color that looks dark in the tube but goes on as a light berry stain. It has a slight shimmer, can be applied dark or light, and has an amazing sweet smell. It is stunning on any skin tone!
Mayberry – Soft and Gorgeous
Mayberry is a dusty rose mauve with medium depth. It isn’t too dark or too bright…with an undertone is that of a cool toned berry. It has a slight micro shimmer to it that’s not noticeable when applied. Mayberry applies smooth and moisturizing and is highly pigmented (doesn’t apply sheer). It provides you lasting color that won’t dry out your lips.
