Ever struggled with choosing lipstick shades for your skin tone? Here's how I would choose lipstick shades based on my skin tone and dominant traits!
Lipstick shades used in the video (I tried my best to remember but they may not be the exact shades!):
1. MAC Viva Glam Gaga I (light cool pink)
2. MAC Nippon (brighter coral)
3. MAC Lovelorn (medium pink)
4. darker pink - I really can't remember this one but it's quite similar to MAC Fanfare or MAC Brave
5. Anna Sui Lip Rouge G400 (glossy light red)
6. MAC Ruby Woo (matte bright red)
7. MAC Dare You (darker brick red)
8. Anna Sui Lip Crayon 700 (beige nude)
9. Evanna Grace Cosmetics Lipstick P030 Tranquil (warm medium nude)
10. Maybelline Color Sensational 925 Maple Kiss (darkest nude)

These videos aren't long enough for me. I can never get enough of your thoughts/ideas! 😉

You're so sweet! I'm glad you're enjoying my content ❤

@sussie9895 3 дня назад

This is perfect! I have bought so many lipsticks that didn’t work on me, looking forward to finding a better match! I think your tip to go a shade darker will fix it! So helpful as I’m also fairly neutral and strong colors don’t look good on me.

@mimimimz6719 3 дня назад

Great advice. Thank you for putting your lips through this for us 😂 It is quite a process finding the right shade of lipstick. I've spent more money that I needed to in trying to find the right shade, so now I do what you said at the end of the video; I mix and match lipsticks. That truly works.

@user00616 3 дня назад

Yes!!!!! Plzzzz more on olive skintones!!! Being a muted desaturated olive is sooo tricky 😢

100% share your experience with needing to go a bit darker than is "perfect" - seasonal palette does play into contrast as well, and that really shows

@tallisinwonderland4724 2 дня назад

This was great thank you. I often find my lipstick needs some type of grounding so I play with lip liner to do this, it lasts better on me too.

@AlexandraGamma 3 дня назад

Your videos are magic! I can relate to them so often! ❤ Choosing darker shade than you'd initially think for the olive is so true! I'm a very fair olive, but it has always been the case for me. I donated a number of nice mac lipsticks to my sister because of how many times I used to buy them only to discover the shade was too pale on me. Same colors on my bestie (fair but non olive) look dramatic and even too dark. I wish I realized this thing earlier and only purchased deep colors. Aslo, red shades tend to look more cool on me than expected. Probably because my lips are kinda blue-ish. Basically true red turns into raspberry so I have to opt into brick red to balance out this effect. Once I ordered Maybelline 'pioneer' and it looked almost magenta on my lips xd Maybe I shoud try to apply a foundation first to conceal the natural lips color? And the closest to 'nude' that works for me is Mac's 'over the taupe', which is decently dark.

@gabrielafonseca4034 3 дня назад

As weird as this may sound, that "match the shade to your nipple color" trick worked wonders for me, so I don't keep buying lip colors that look bad on me.

@VanCrane 3 дня назад

It’s an interesting idea, but for me it’s not working 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m very light, almost fair but THIS color is too pale for me 😅

@gabrielafonseca4034 3 дня назад

@@VanCrane same thing happened to me, because THAT color looks much darker than you'd expect looking at my super fair complexion. What I did was try pumped up and muted versions of IT 🙃. Here's a tip, I know it's weird. Take a photo of it and blow it up and see what colors it's composed of, like brown, pink and red (in my case) and try those. For lip colors I know a shade it's right when it blends into the shade of the inside of my lip.

This is great! I have to say it's not easy finding shades that work for my Indian olive skin tone. Going to use these tricks. I could empathize with your raw feeling lips and was wincing along!

@MillieMaa 3 дня назад

This is SO helpful. Love seeing all the examples! I am very fair with neutral/warm, kind of desaturated skin. Not olive but I really relate to the need for softer (and in my case more desaturated) lipsticks, as well as neutral warm/neutral/cool lips. I often adjust the color with a lipliner. I also cannot with light beige lips - they look like a bandaid on me…for folks who need a softer lip, merit satin lipsticks have a great shade range and can be blotted down for a more desaturated look.

@em945 3 дня назад

I am giggling at your 'look like a bandaid on me comment'.. V amusing.

@RachaelTheRed 3 дня назад

Nude lips are so tricky! I feel like everything is too warm and beigey. I've pretty much given up on nude and use a dusty rose as my "nude" instead (I guess that would be my MLBB shade🤷‍♀️). Although, red is still my go to color.

@stylemejenn 3 дня назад

I agree! I think the last color I landed on as my go-to nude is technically a rose-y color as well 😝

@pajamamama5965 2 дня назад

Same! I think that is a common issue for winter seasons. I'm a bright winter, so the rose can't be too dusty. I wear a midtone rosy pink and it looks like MLBB shade on me.

@lynsphildav7987 3 дня назад

This is brilliant and so helpful, I have learnt lots. It’s so tricky to fine tune but I like the idea of choosing these 3 looks to concentrate on first and I now know what to look for 🤩Thankyou

@Nidhi-ll3yq 20 часов назад

I agree with everything you've said on this video. I've hated how crazy late 2000s were with washed out nude/concealer lips and then the phase from 2012-2016, with chunky bold lips. Thank you so much for your tips Jenn :) Your tips makes one look elegant & timeless.

my forehead is yellow and lighter and my cheeks are pink and then darker yellow/beige near my jawline, it's the worst lol. I just make my cheeks more nude, cause I don't wanna put blush on my forehead 😂 but my forehead remains lighter and I hate it. I don't feel comfortable putting bronzer or whatever on my forehead, I don't know what shade to buy and I don't have the time before work. I also don't want to put something very light on lower 2/3 of my face. I look better with tan. 😐

When I started looking at lip stick colors in Thailand, I noticed that practically all of them were some kind of shade of red. Very different lineup to back home in Scandinavia. So I think the marketing people at Boots (where I checked first) had determined those colors would sell the best.

@melodytar9706 2 дня назад

Oh i love this video, the next time i buy myself a lipstick again i will try to remember to take a shade darker than i think i need. I have very nice mauve colored one which almost fits the mlbb but it is a little to cold for my lips, as i have more of a warm complexion than the cool undertone of it

@taradeedleedoo 2 дня назад

Your skin tone and lip pigmentation are so similar to mine! The ones you picked as best for you were pretty much what i would choose too! In fact today I had the same thought process regarding the bold red lip today 😂

@HaHaHaLMFAOtv 2 дня назад

Thank you for going through all that pain! I noticed that pinks do look more bright on me. I look at them closely in store before settling in, come home, try it and be disappointed on how bright and usually very cool they look on me. Im looking for MLBB shade too. The perfect pink. Maybe it's because I have naturally very pigmented lips. But I noticed that putting a very beige lip liner helps with blanking the color so lipstick looks better on me. And I also love layering different shades!

@elineermens1 День назад

Another tip I have is to have a few muted/brownish and/or mauvey lipliners at hand. I have a few lipsticks that on their own are too bright or light and it really makes a difference to create contrast between the outer parts of your lips vs skin. I would still never wear those lighter nudes but you can manipulate the appearance or a color well so you get more use out of your lipsticks that seem to look on top of your lips.

@YumeraChauque 3 дня назад

In the light lipstick is very,very easy to see that makes you look sickly,pale,lifeless, well,the coral is a little better than the light cool pink. Waw,6:02 the diference between a "ok" vs "great" lip color is big!! In the ok volor,nothing is happening,but in the great color,gives a similar brows effect,like is framing your face better and you look more healthy and more yourself 😮. 6:54 that first red that you pick,is my favorite texture/formula is fresh and light, while matte is very hard on me,I just use matte for dramatic makeup 😅. 8:35 the red fits u soo much better than the bright red❤ The last tip is very usefull but where I live most lipstick are cool toned,I never seen a an orange lipstick color,the closest was an warm red😢.
