Why does red lipstick make my face look more red?

When I was in Middle school, I used to pick my face a lot. I was really made fun of. So I used to pick them all the time to make them go away. I tired every skin product at that time, but nothing worked. So I just gave up. 9th grade I still didn't care about even my appearance. But now I'm a juinior and I want to wear like red lipstick but it makes my face look way red.


how do i prevent this?Why does red lipstick make my face look more red?
Put blush on???Why does red lipstick make my face look more red?
A concealer or foundation primer with a green base will neutralize any redness in your skin tone. Also you will need a red lipstick with a cool undertone rather than a warm one. There are many many reds out there you will have to do some exploring. My personal fav is Nars ';fire down below';.
go to the make up store and pick up some foundation that is the color of ur skin! then but it on ur face and neck area!! the red or pinkish color of ur skin probly brings out the color when u wear red lipstick but if u use some bush or foundtion it sholud work really well!!
um, if you suffer from redness, the red lipstick will make you look to flush. maybe neutralise the redness with a certain blush? try different shades to see which one can work the best.

Probably because if your cheeks are natural pink or red, the lipstick would bring it out. To prevent it? I guess put blush on to hide the redness.

What can i use to make my lips red without lipstick?

i feel lipstick disortes the shape of my lips or then i just dont know how to put it on, but i also hate how its shiny and i really really hate lipgloss ... what do i do? im not saying naturally but by putting something on what could i use? any product like that MAC makes or something? or any other brand of make up... i want red lips cause im going for the psychobilly lookWhat can i use to make my lips red without lipstick?
If your interested in MAC products then try their lipsticks in either a Matte or Satin finish sense you don't shine. Use a lip brush to apply the red lipstick plus sense it's a bold Color use a lip liner pencil to prevent feathering and give you a nice shaped lip and clean looking lip. If you have a MAC store or counter, you should go and let them know you're interested in a lip product, they help you find a shade of red that flatters you and even show you how to apply it the way you want it to look in the end. If the lipsticks aren't for you try their new c-thru lip color, but that's limited edition though. If that isn't what you're looking for try a lip stain that red. It's alot more lighter, more gel/liquid like product that's suppose to give you that just bitten lip look/effect. Many brands from high end to drugstore brands have stains that are for lips and/or cheeks.What can i use to make my lips red without lipstick?
revlon makes a lip stain called ';just bitten'; and covergirl outlast makes a lip stain. those 12 hour lipsticks have a stain and then a gloss, just use it without the gloss. or just a little. they are more like paint than gummy lipstick.





and red popsicles and slushies and stuff stain your lips for ever. i've been asked if im wearing lipstick after eating a red snow cone.
you can put blush on your lips, and then just put chapstick on over it to hold it on. it sounds wierd, but it works.
Benefit Benetint is able to colour your lips without the heavy look of lipstick . Could be used as a blush as well .
Yeah matte should work, you could probably also ask around at the store you intend to buy from and get the info you need.
You could use a red matte lipstick, tinted lip balm, or lip stain.
i know it sound gross but if you lick your lips they go heaps red. why dont you just use lip gloss? geezz.
Try a lip stain or tinted chapstick.

How do I choose a red lipstick that doesn't make my teeth look yellow?

Look for a (cool) red shade that is more pinkish in hue. Avoid (warm) golden reds that tend to appear closer in color to orange as these will make teeth appear more yellow.How do I choose a red lipstick that doesn't make my teeth look yellow?
the red lipstick does not make your teeth yellow.Use crest white toothpaste to brush your teeth and than you will have white teeth if you keep brushing your teeth every day!!!!How do I choose a red lipstick that doesn't make my teeth look yellow?
The lipsticks obviously aren't the problem.Try using crest white strips for a while after that then try finding a lipstick that works for you.
Get your teeth cleaned
chose a blue based red. Ask the sales girl, she will help you find one.
Use Crest Whitestrips so you don't have to worry about it.
Choose one with a blue undertone. Yellow undertones just highlight yellow teeth...
get the lipstick that comes with white out
Yes, pick a cool shade or blue based red.
Red makes any yellow tooth color stand out. Stick with pastels, or if you really want red, take a trip to the dentist and get your teeth professionally whitened.





You'll notice how a red-lipstick-wearer like Gwen Stefani has totally white teeth, and that's the only way to wear red lipstick.
You can use red lipstick and add brown shade to the lower lip's midtop part.
If your teeth look yellow, wear a brown shirt.

What color eyeshadow would you wear with red lipstick?

I have no idea what color eyeshadow works best with red lipstick...any ideas? Thanks! :)What color eyeshadow would you wear with red lipstick?
I wear red lipstick a lot and apply a very light gold eyeshadow most of the time. A nude eye looks best with red lipstick but that also depends on what kind of red lipstick you are wearing.





If it's a matte red - light copper or gold eye shadow


Satin finish - a matte nude eye shadow with a hint of shimmer


Glossy finish - a slightly smudged black/browneyeliner is more than enough!





If you want to look more dramatic, combine a medium red lipstick with brown/gold eyeshadow and black liquid eyeliner!What color eyeshadow would you wear with red lipstick?
I would wear something neutral, like a shade tan, beige, brown, bone, or even none. Generally, the shade I wear is Tapestry Taupe by CoverGirl. If I'm wearing red lipstick, I apply it VERY lightly. If I'm wearing nude gloss or lipstick, I apply it a little darker.
You can wear a smoky black color, pick, or a light brown color. You can compare colors on what looks good with you lipstick, good luck.
Don't wear any eye shadow with red lipstick.





As a general rule: When wearing heavy eye makeup, go very light on the lips, when wearing heavy color on the lips, go light on the eyes.





If you have both heavily done, you'll end up looking like a clown. That's not good, unless of course, you're a clown.
why would you wear red lipstick?? hopefully for halloween right? Go with a color that compliments your eyes, what color eye do you have? That might help/.
Go with something less dramatic like a neutral color so the attention will be focused on your lips.
go with something that matches your eyes !
Don't worry about matching your lipstick with your eye shadow. In all honesty they aren't really supposed to match. Pick colours that go with your face, your own colouring. If red lipstick suits you then you can probably get away with a lot of bright shades, pick out a colour from your outfit and go with that.
Very pale. If you are going dramatic with the lips, don't go heavy on the eyes.
I like MAC colors. But i suggest any color will do! ilike smokey black.
None. Either have dramatic eyes OR lips-not both. Plus, Red is pretty hard to pull off.
nude and bare... nothing or beige... Your lips beg for all the attention. maybe some mascara. the point of red lipstick is to bring ALL the attention to your kisser... Play up one, never both...
Nothing dramatic. Maybe a beige or a gold, any bright color of eyeshadow plus red lipstick will make you look like you're in the circus.
i use pink!

Thanks!Red lipstick for blonde with blue eyes and medium skin?
go to a store and knock yourself outRed lipstick for blonde with blue eyes and medium skin?
I heard that red lips go great with fair skin and light colored hair!


I think revlon lip stick works teh best and it isnt too expensive.


i've used sephora brand lipstick and it sucks! its more expensive than revlon and its not worth it at ALL!!


Milani listicks are really reasonable yet really great so you could try that.





you could also try lipliners, since they are more pigmented...
