lipstick edition

                                     
Every girl likes wearing their favourite lipsticks on special occasions or just to change up your look,  my personal favourite is a matte lipstick because it doesn't look shinny and they also last longer then shinny lipsticks. 
Too add that the brand is really important too from expensive or cheap the quality is everything.  Trust me You'd rather spend 20$ on a good working lipstick that you really like and that last long  rather then buying an 8$ one and keep having to buy a new one cause the quality is so bad. In my opinion Mac has the best lipstcisks they are expensive but the quality is really good and they last longer then other lipsticks from brands  like sophora or cover girl . 


When i first wearing lipstick  a common  problem I always seemed to have with any kind of lipstick is getting it on my teeth and making a big mess (not cute) so this is what I found worked for me to avoid this from happening and  to keep lipstick off your teeth, simply put your lipstick on, then put your index finger in your mouth and pull it out. Any extra lipstick should get on your finger instead of your teeth. Another tip related to teeth is avoiding any orange or brown shades,  They have the tendency to bring out the yellow shades in your teeth so avoiding these colours will make your teeth look whiter.   


 picking the perfect shade 

Another important thing to remember when picking or even applying a lipstick is making sure you have the perfect shade for your skin tone. So if you have a fair skin tone you'd want a Glossy transparent pink, light peach, honey, beige. If you have a medium skin tone you'd want to get anything in the  Medium pinks, light mocha, caramel, delicate red, medium apricots, tabgy peach. If you have an olive complexion a Strong red, deep rose, berry, toffee, mahogany, dark apricots,or brown red would be suitable. finally  If you have a ebony skin tone you'd want to get Deep brownish red, deep berry, deep fuchsi or golden beige. But these are just suggestions for what would look best with your skin tone doesn't  mean you can only wear those colours .

    Wow O'Shawn another week, another great blog, personally I think that a shade of cherry red would suit me most because I am always in dark spaces so the red can really pop out and the people around me can admire it since it glows.

    I think another mistake some girls make is wearing too much abnormal colors lipstick. I know that dark purple is really in right now but most people don't know what shade of purple to pick. They either go too bright or too dark. I think if you don't know what shade of lipstick to wear then don't wear it at all.
