A slick of color that will make you love your lips. Lipstick has been around for about 5000 years! It’s the easiest and quickest way to give your face a focus and create an instant splash of color. A woman can convey her mood status and personality with her choice of lipstick. Yet there is no perfect shade, brand or formula that each woman must follow! The problem is that one woman’s treasure is another woman’s trash. Your friend’s favorite and most flattering lipstick color often won’t look the same on you (and voice versa!). With that in mind here we offer you some guidelines, a map as it were in your search for your perfect color!
Kind of Lipsticks
Sheer lipsticks allow your own lip color to shine through and are there fore more universal (i.e. flattering) than more opaque lipsticks and less likely to overwhelm your features. Sheer formulas have the added bonus of being very moisturizing and lightweight. The downside is that they are not as long wearing as other formulas. Cream lipsticks are the happy medium when it comes to lipstick - they’re moist, but they wear longer than sheer lipsticks. The downside is that the cream formulations are more opaque, so you need to be more selective about choosing a color.
