How to Match Lip Color & Skin Tone

Video Transcript

" Hi! My name is Davina, this is my model Kirsten and we’re here on behalf of expertvillage.com. In this clip I’ll help you choose the best soft lip color for your skin type. For fair skin, you want to use a pale pink or berry. For medium and olive skin, apricot, beiges and bronzy nudes works best. For dark skin, it’s complimented by mauves, sheer reds and berries. With Kirsten here, she’s the more medium olive skin tone, so I’m using a bronzy apricot color, I’m choosing to use a gloss and I’m just going to use this without the lip liner and without the lipstick. Starting in the center, working around her natural arch, I’m going to apply the gloss out to the corners of her mouth. Repeat on the opposite side, starting in the center, working her way out to the corner. Repeat at the bottom. And that’s how you chose the best color for your skin tone."
