The classic red lip is one of the most sexiest looks there is. A lot of people are afraid of its overpowering color, but when worn right, it looks absolutely stunning. For me personally, I believe it looks best with light, natural makeup ( like shown in this picture). Apply a warm brown shadow in the crease and under the eye, followed by a highlight on the brow bone and mascara. Red lips can work for anyone, you just have to find the right shade of red -all shades are not created equal! If you have fair skin, go with a shade that has a hint of blue in it; meaning a true red color, with no orange or pinks in it. For medium skin tones, you happen to be the luckiest because you can get away with about any shade of red; try for a hot fire engine red. Darker skin tones call for a darker red, try shades that have a bit of a plum color to it, then the lip will look sexy and regal. Just remember, no matter what color you choose, the most important part is for you to feel comfortable in the shade you pick.
Anytime I think of red lips I think of Marilyn Monroe. Add a top winged eyeliner to get a pin-up girl look that is simply seductive!
