Re: Which Shades of Red Lipstick Make Your Teeth Appear White?

Blue based red makes your teeth appear white - too bad most of them are too harsh on my skin =( I prefer orange/tomato reds in general, love the brightness of them and they don't seem to change the color of my teeth

So is pink-red lipstick closer to orange-red or blue-red? Thanks!

i suppose a pink can be blue tinted or have a warmer undertone such as yellow or orange, i noticed that poise in the new mattene range says yellow tinted pink x

I'm probably imagining things as I'm always paranoid about how white my teeth are for some reason and people always comment on how white they are and I never see it! Thanks for the imforation everyone!

Now, if only I could work up the courage to wear Seriously Rich out! It's a gorgeous colour, but I'm so used to wearing pinks and nudes only on my lips and it certainly stands out against my fair skin, blue eyes, and blonde hair.

If you're looking for a red from the Mattene collection try Classic Dame. It's vibrant blood red and the color's deep so the whites of your teeth really pop out (for me anyway).

Red Lipstick for NC35

I've been having a hard time looking for a red lipstick. Some either look more fuschia or too orange. I use NC35 in MAC, I have medium skin with gold/yellow undertones. Doesn't have to be MAC. I appreciate your feedback. Thanks!

Mac Russian Red, a classic blue red.

Try Classic dame or dubonnet. I find a lot of other MAC reds tend to turn fuchsia/hot pink on me, like russian red or ruby woo

Re: Red Lipstick for NC35

You MUST check out Rimmel Lipstick in Scream. other than that, I'd suggest Russian Red

Re: Red Lipstick for NC35

im dead scared of red lipsticks, so i opted for a red lipgloss and picked up NARs lipgloss in Bad education, and its a great red - not orange or magenta-y.

Re: Red Lipstick for NC35

2nd, Rimmel Scream. Or Rimmel Screamer, which a touch darker. Also, Revlon Certainly Red. I'm NC42 and have a fotd with Certainly Red on the "FOTD Board." Feel free to check it out, if that helps.

Astarte Cosmetics Bad Girl Red Lacquer or Climax Lipgloss would be gorgeous against your complexion.
