Help! Makeup advice for bright (fake) Redheads!!!

I recently dyed my hair bright (fake) red and now I feel like all my makeup clashes with my hair. What color lipstick, blush and eyeliner would go well with my hair color and my medium skin? Thank you! :}

Hi hellokiwi,

 

I know exactly what your going through, I to once dyed my hair a different color and realized all my makeup clashed.

 

Here are a few things to keep in mind when selecting new shades.

 

In general try choosing colors that lend themselves more to the richer, warmer side like bronze, gold, reddish, coral.

 

For eyes try a rich bronze with golden flecks. Clinique makes a fabulous cream liner called "Chocolate luster" 

 

For your cheeks opt for warm, rich plums, bronzers and deep rose.

 

Here is a great blush that I find works well with Red heads. :smileyhappy:

Nars Oasis 

A sparkling pinky/rose champagne.

 

A great everyday blush that gives just the right amount of color which complements the red tones in the hair.

 

For your lips depending on your skin tone the idea is the more fair you are the more red you can hold. 

 

Now I don't mean the actual pure color red, try finding shades that have a subtle red undertone lying beneath them.

 

Hope all this info helps.

 

Happy Holidays,

 

Gilbert
