Hi everyone! I'm so sorry if this is stupid, but I need help! I have brown eyes, auburn hair, tan skin (nc 35). Whenever I try purple lipstick, I think I look like an alien or something. Maybe I'm trying the wrong ones on? Is it impossible for me to wear? Most of my lipsticks are pinks, peaches, corals, and oranges; I want to expand! I've read that I should try a purple with yellow undertones, but do not know how to do that. I want to wear fun purple lippies too! Thank you!

I think what you want is a purple with more red in it as opposed to blue (purple = red + blue). I think most of the ones like that are darker colours -- MAC Rebel, MAC Media, Urban Decay Venom, UD Jilted.

You could try wet n wild - Sugar Plum Fairy. It's similar to MAC Rebel but much, much cheaper.
It'd be a great colour to experiment with :) And if you figure it's not quite it - at least you didn't spend much money on it.
