Girls! How do I choose the correct lipstick?


Whats the best way of choosing a fashion lipstick? It does tend to be a tedious task girls, so I've researched a few ideas which may hopefully help you!

How many times have you left the store feeling doubtful about your expensive purchase, hoping its the correct color, then feeling sick at the thought of not being able to take it back because it has been opened!

How many lipsticks do you have lying around your vanity cupboard and only been used once - what a pain! Actually you could try blending two together to create hopefully the color you want, or use it for blush... right! When you arrive home you have made a mistake...what a waste of time and money!

Let me see now, first of all, where do you test the lipstick? If you are rubbing it back and forth on your wrist to try and achieve the correct color - forget it! Is this what you are going to have to do to achieve the correct color on your lips? Your lipstick will be gone in no time!

Apparently the simplest and best way is to use your fingertips, if you can't test the color on your lips...makes sense! The color of your lips is a completely different color to your hand or wrist. Try a soft red tone on the back of your hand, see how bright it is! Now test the same color on your lips and you'll notice its very different. Your fingertips are similar to the color of your lips which means it will be more true - no more wasting money on expensive lipsticks!

Whats in fashion girls? - True lipstick!
