Tips for Finding a Dark Lip Color
Hi! My name is Davina, this is my model Kirsten and we’re here on behalf of expertvillage.com. In this clip I’ll explain how to pick a nice dark sultry lip color for your skin tone. For fair skin, it looks warmer and more inviting if you use a deep berry and rich wine. Medium and olive skin tones, they glow best when assented by browns and raisin tones. A dark skin tone, looks great with burgundies and plums. With Kirsten she’s more medium and olive tone, so I’m using a more bronzy brown color. I’m using the lip gloss to give a nice glow and it gives it that wet sultry look. Starting from the center, work your way out to the corner, repeat on the opposite side. Staying inside the lines of your lip, on the bottom. And that’s how you choose the best dark shade for your skin tone.
