Lip Colors You Might Want to Stick With If Your Face Gets Sunburned!

You might not have planned to spend time in the sun, but  it helps to know how to live with that  red complexion once it happens.

If you find yourself landing up with a red face from too much time in the sun or you have a ruddy complexion, you want to avoid using any red shade of lip color that could call more attention to the problem. Instead, you need to rethink your lip color shades with tones that would best distract from that extra redness. 

Soft pinks and nudes will counteract the red color best!

I hope that you don’t get sunburned, but there is always a chance like accidentally falling asleep in the sun or simply forgetting or reapplying the sunscreen that could get you in this predicament.  Therefore, I thought you should be aware of this tip because it really does help to make your beautiful red face more presentable.

A Foolproof Way for Selecting Your Best Lip Colors for Even Whiter Teeth!

IT Cosmetics Vitality Lip Flush Butter Trio

When you pick out lip colors suited for your skin tone, you can make your teeth look whiter as well as compliment your complexion as I explained in an earlier post. Though as wonderfully as that works, I found an even better method of making those selections for the illusion of even whiter teeth.

Before you think of skin tone, you will need to judge the color of your teeth.  The enamel has two distinct shades either of yellow-ivory-browns or a mix of blue-grays. If you’re confused about how to make this determination, here is a simple trick to see where your teeth fall.

Get a white paper and stand in front of a mirror.  Hold that sheet near your mouth and smile.  If your teeth seem more yellow, you probably should consider red and orange shades over pinks or purples that would do the opposite and bring out more yellow in your teeth.  

On the other hand, if you see more of a blue-gray to your teeth, then steer clear of reds and orange shades because they will only work against you.  Better alternatives are pinks, especially bright pink, purple tones, and berries to help brighten up your particular smile.

I am confident that once you try this trick that you'll love the difference.  Try it out and be amazed!

A Beauty Sensation Worth Your Attention! Meet My New Must-Have Lippies! Ellis Faas Cosmetics Creamy Lip Pens Review--Photos + Swatches!

This is L 101 Lip Pen

Based in the Netherlands, Ellis Faas is a cosmetic company started by the highly acclaimed makeup artist in a line that takes color to a new frontier with her talents.  Instead of saddling us with artificial color, Ellis bases her inspirations on colors the body produces naturally.  The result means a more complimentary cosmetic when it comes to best working with your skin tone.  A prime example of such artistry comes shining through with the Creamy Lip Pens that I was privileged to review.

These lip colors come in silver bullet-like tubes that you swivel up for the color to flow to the sponge applicator.  You can control how much of that brilliant color easily enough by how much of the product you want to release. 

The two Creamy Lip Pens sent were L 101 (a deep blood red)  and L 105 (a flattering rusty brown).  The colors look slightly darker on the surface of the sponge until it hits your lips for an amazing impact with an intense shine.  At the same time, these well-pigmented pens left my lips plumped and moisturized.

I never found any tacky stickiness or experience any smearing, flaking, or escaping product over my lip line while wearing them. 

This product has wonderful lasting power.  I put it on in early morning after breakfast and kept it on through lunch without too much damage.  The lip color does come off but does it evenly with grace to leave behind a beautiful stain. 

I thought there was enough color to wear alone.  However, I thought I would do a little retouching.  Since I didn't throw that new tube in my handbag, I took out my clear lip balm and did a little retouching. 

When I was through, my lips still dripped with a slightly paler version of that haunting blood red color.  My mouth looked incredible and so inviting.

I truly love my new lippies.  If you want to discover sexy color that can effortlessly transform ordinary into extraordinary, I highly recommend looking into Ellis Faas Cosmetics and these Creamy Lip Pens.  They retail for $35 each and are now one of my beauty staples!
