Classic and elegant look/ How to achieve the perfect red lips

If you don't know which shade of red to choose or how to apply red lipstick perfectly, makeup artists have the solution with their tips below:

Exfoliation and hydration

Just like you take care of your skin before applying makeup, you should also take care of your lips before applying lipstick. Start by exfoliating using a lip scrub or using a washcloth and some lukewarm water to remove dead skin cells and get soft, smooth lips. Follow with a lip balm or lip mask to deeply moisturize them, just make sure it's well absorbed before applying lipstick.

Find the ideal shade of red for you

In this task, you'll need to consider your undertones. According to makeup artist Gucci Westman, if you have warm or pink undertones (meaning skin that blushes easily), try red lipsticks with orange undertones, such as tomato red, brick red, or a more "rusty" red.

Conversely, if you have cool undertones, red lipsticks with blue undertones, a berry red, a ruby ??red, or even a cherry red, will suit you. Finally, if you have neutral undertones, we envy you! You can play around with different shades until you find the red that suits you, as almost everything suits you!

Contour your lips.

Before you apply your red lipstick, start by outlining. Red and brown shades go perfectly with red lipstick, so grab a lip liner in a similar shade and follow the natural contour of your lips, if you feel confident, you can do a little bit of blending to enhance their shape. If you're new to applying lipstick, Gucci Westman suggests using a nude or pink lip liner, as even if you mess up, it won't smudge as much as a darker lip liner.

Apply your red lipstick with a lip brush.

If you want to achieve a flawless finish, apply your red lipstick with a lip brush. Start at the center of your lips and work the color outwards. Once you're done applying, take the red pencil you used to line your lips and swipe it over your lipstick to set the color and perfect your lip shape. Alternatively, press your lips together with your fingers for a more sensual look, as if you've just been kissed or had a glass of red wine.

Set your lipstick with a little foundation.

Take a very thin brush and apply it around the edges of your lips to correct the shape and clean up any smudges that may have formed. Then, dust the edges of your lips with a little translucent powder to set the lipstick and make it last for hours. /CNA
