Reds, berries, plums, coppers -- they're the colours on everyone's lips (especially for fall) and are extremely flattering on a variety of skintones, yet they can sometimes look a tad outdated or passe. With one little secret of an added touch, you can take this defunct look and make it current.
Ways you can avoid this dilemma is two-fold (and quite simple):
1. Choose a lipstick with a subtle hint of gold shimmer already in it;
2. Play scientist and create a pre-mixed product: mix in a gold pigment to the lipstick, or layer your lips with a gold gloss to get the same effect with a little more dimension.
The flecks and sparkles of light in the pigments give a youthful and modern finish to an otherwise old-fashioned shade.
Beauty Muse Tip: even if your lipstick isn't part of the red colour family as listed, adding a hint of gold can still take your pout no matter the colour, to the next level (and beyond!)
