For <strong>fair skin with a cool, rosy undertone, dark and very dark shades with a cool, bluish undertone are perfect.<\/strong> For those with <strong>medium skin and an olive complexion, a dark red lipstick with a yellow or brick-red undertone will be ideal. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also a selection based on texture. In terms of finish, it&#8217;s recommended to choose <strong>matte lipsticks if you have full and well-hydrated lips.<\/strong> Those with <strong>very thin and\/or marked lips are better off with luminous and plumping finishes. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Simple, right? Well, feel free to set aside these &#8216;rules&#8217; if you don&#8217;t think they&#8217;re right for you. In our opinion, <strong>the best color (and finish) is often a matter of mood, <\/strong>and\u00a0it&#8217;s much more<strong> important to apply the lipstick well<\/strong> <strong>to enhance the contours of the lips and, ultimately, the face.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignfull-width wp-image-84583 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/n6ZyeWPP-10.jpg\" alt=\"dark-red-lipstick-makeup-style\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" \/><\/p>\n<h1>How to apply dark red lipstick<\/h1>\n<p>Applying dark lipstick perfectly may seem complicated. Spoiler: <strong>it&#8217;s not,<\/strong> especially after a few attempts.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, just follow some tips (well known to makeup artists) to be on the safe side. For long-lasting makeup, <strong>the lips must be soft and hydrated to ensure accurate application.<\/strong> The &#8216;weak point&#8217; of dark lipsticks, in fact, lies in smudges, which are much more evident than with a light shade or a lip gloss.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some simple steps on how to apply dark red lipstick.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Exfoliate<\/strong>: For dark lipsticks, the base is fundamental. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s good to exfoliate the lips periodically with a specific scrub.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hydrate:<\/strong> Moisturize your lips daily with a product like lip balm. Always remember to blot your lips before applying lipstick.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Apply the base:<\/strong> Lip primer is strongly recommended for those with even slightly dry or chapped lips. It allows you to &#8216;smooth&#8217; the base on which the lipstick will be applied.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Color the base with lip liner:<\/strong> Choose a liner which matches the color of your lips \u2013 or neutral \u2013 and apply it to all the lips before the lipstick to increase its hold.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use the brush:<\/strong> Applying lipstick directly to the lips can create the risk of leaving small areas without makeup, which are visible if the chosen color is, indeed, dark.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Set:<\/strong> For an evening-proof hold, have a translucent powder to apply on the lips.<br \/>\nIf you&#8217;re ready to try a dark red lipstick look, choose the one that suits you best from these proposals (below is a gallery with some lip looks to inspire you).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1>Dark Red Lipstick: Products to Try<\/h1>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hermes.com\/fr\/fr\/product\/rouge-hermes-rouge-a-levres-brillant-edition-limitee-rouge-abysse-V60517TV084\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rouge Herm\u00e8s Limited Edition Autumn Winter 2023 Rouge Abysse 84<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>An elegant Bordeaux with a touch of cobalt, authentic sun in the night.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignfull-width wp-image-84584 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2023\/12\/xoHeFYE4-7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.revlon.it\/lips\/liquid-lipstick\/colorstay-satin-ink?shade=partner-in-wine\" target=\"_blank\">Revlon Colorstay Satin Ink in Partner in Wine<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Surprisingly comfortable and shiny liquid lipstick with a 16-hour duration.
