Hi guys! I need help on how to pick the right shade of red lipstick?
I am blond and have been 'taught' all my life blonds shouldn't wear red lipstick. Is there any shade of red that looks nice on blond women?
Thanks in advance!

Hey bibuska! Smile
Not only blond, but many women believe they can't wear red lipstick. But thins thinking is wrong! The secret in wearing certain lipstick color is not in color (for example red), but in the undertones of specific color. Besides women should pay more attention to their skin tone and adjust the color (*read undertone) of the lipstick to the 'undertone' of their skin. The haircolor is actually not as important as is your skin tone. For example, women that have pinkish skin tone should wear red like cherry red, but if you have darker skin, than choose deeper, fire red.

One more tip when wearing red lipstick: avoid matching (red) outfit with (red) lipstick! It looks too much ... Cool
