Between cherry, wine, scarlet, and ruby, how can you know which red lip is best for your beautiful complexion for the new fall-winter season?
By: Ashley Tiara Lilly & Julie Queiruga
We’ve put together a list of different tints, shades, and hues for each lovely skin tone so that you can rock your best red lip with your fall wardrobe.
FAIR: For a complexion such as fair, while a classic red lip would never hurt, cool and pink undertone reds look best for their skin tone for fall.
BEIGE: While Beige is the second skin tone on the color wheel, it is very close to fair skin tones and works best with classic true reds as well and even berry reds bring out their golden undertones.
OLIVE: First to get a tan the quickest, it is no doubt that with a complexion as beautiful as olive; brown shades of red compliment olive tone skin best.
CARAMEL: Even though you can get away with a classic red lip from time to time, orange and brown undertone lipsticks also work really well with this skin tone giving off the best combination.
ALMOND: With a skin tone as beautiful as Almond, they, of course, have the best red shades. Dark reds, wines, burgundy’s, and even deep cranberry’s are a match made in heaven for Almond skin tones. Needless to say, they’re always Fall ready.

I love these shades of red
Smash box lipsticks are amazing !!!! It’s always hard to find the right shade with my skin color, thanks for the article big help.
Very helpful article makes it 10x easier when I’m at a drugstore and can’t decide on a shade 🙂
I must say being very fair I have always gone with Classic Red however after seeing so many options for my skin tone I will try the red with the pink undertones just in time for the holidays!
