I think Purple can look amazing on everyone as long as you go for a shade that suits your skin tone and your overall colouring. It's a nice change from those nudes, reds and pinks that we all go for and it can really make you stand out from the crowd.
My first tip to wearing ANY colour is feeling comfortable, you need to feel good in what you wear, whether that be clothing or make up wise. When your comfortable you elude confidence which makes you look just that much better and of course feel better.
Throughout this week I'll be posting 4 different looks that feature a Purple lip; A subtle purple glossed lip, A Pinky/Purple lip (for those of you not 100 percent confident going all out), A Metallic deep Purple, and finally, A full on Blue toned Purple matte lip.
So keep a look out for those throughout the week.
Here are some quick tips to remember when wearing Purple Lips;
- If your purple lipstick/gloss is more of a blue toned or dark purple it can sometimes make you look a little washed out or dead looking so make sure you liven up your face and add some subtle warmth unless of course your working towards achieving that 'death' look .
- You don't have to wear neutral colours on your eyes, you can rock other colours when wearing a purple lip, it's all about experimentation and seeing what looks good.
- I do recommend wearing a Lip Liner when wearing Purple Lipstick due to the fact that it can bleed around the edges and since it is a statement lip we want to keep it looking nice and neat. (you can wear a nude lip liner if you don't have a purple lip liner)
- Make sure to conceal your under eye circles well as the Purple can really highlight the blue and purple tones under there.
- Have fun experimenting!
