How to Select Lipstick That

Complements Asian Coloring

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Lip color can vary by season and occasion. You may opt for more dramatic lips to ring in
the new year and stick to a softer shade for a weekend afternoon. Your options are
endless, so pucker up and play with that pout.

Instructions

• STEP 1: Let a bluish-red lend glamour to a porcelain complexion. Add drama to
yellow-toned skin with a raisin or plum shade.
• STEP 2: Get a touch of color with a tinted gloss. Consider ruby or coffee shades
for evening, and mauves, taupes and caramels for day.
• STEP 3: Choose a lip liner that's a shade or two darker than your lipstick. Lining
your lips will add definition and help keep your lip color from bleeding.
• STEP 4: Balance heavy eye makeup with a more subdued lip color. Pair a bold
lip color with softer eye makeup.
• STEP 5: Skip pastel and frosted shades, which can leave Asian complexions
washed out or flat. Do look for soft colors that have a delicate shimmer or subtle
shine.

Tips & Warnings

• Check out the new color sticks that can go from cheek to eyes to lips. This is a
great option for busy, on-the-go gals, or those who prefer a simpler beauty
regime.
• If you fill in your lips with liner before applying lipstick, your lip color will last a
lot longer.
• Apply lip balm once a day or choose moisture-rich lip color formulas to
counteract dry or chapped lips.
