Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

Hi all I’m looking for recommendations for lipsticks and lip glosses I  have purple hair & blue eyes (I’ll post a pic shortly to go by) so far i only own neutral pinks that are really subtle such as Charlotte tilbury pillow talk and etc.  but I  want to get more brave  and gain more confidence in a range of more shades and colors. I’m skittish of red and bright pinks berries, browns and nudes and it’s time to change that. I any colors you might know or think would go good with purple hair and blue eyes combo would be greatly appreciated . It can but doesn’t have to necessarily have to be from Sephora I also shop at ulta.

Piink!

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

Basically go for cool tones.... otherwise any colour should match!

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

@Nicolletiti thank you I'll keep an eye out for cool toned lipsticks. 🙂

@WhereYouStand 

With cool toned hair, I just avoid warm shades. In reality, I don’t often think about my hair + lip combo often (ever) but in color theory warm wouldn’t go great with my hair color. I would avoid oranges myself. 

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

Honestly, most any shade but some reds will go well with purple hair. Do you have a preferred formula or brand, @WhereYouStand

Spoiler
I wish I could remember these shades, but they were from years ago and are mostly mattes, but there's a range you can see here.

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

Thank you, @lmaster!! 😊

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

OMG @haleyvvvv !!!!  Absolutely gorgeous 🤩

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

Thank you, @ShanShanMa85!!

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

@haleyvvvv jumping in solely to say your haircut is adorable and I love all your colors.

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

Thank you, @sprocketta!! I haven't gotten a haircut in about a year and I miss my shorter hair and having it coloured. Hopefully by the end of this year I can see a salon again!!

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

@haleyvvvv there's a lot of love missing from people's hair this year due to the pandemic. I look forward to seeing a fun new 'do when you get to.

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

@haleyvvvv thanks so much for posting this all those shades look great especially the bright pink one on the top left  As brands go I haven’t tried very many I do like Mac that brand  So far has been promising. When it comes to formulas I’m not picky in exploring different types. Though I own mostly mattes 

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

That shade is the Buxom Shimmer Shock Lipstick Atomic Allure over a creamy pink Buxom lip crayon...I believe. I tried to find some dupes on Temptalia, but unfortunately there wasn't any.

 

I love a matte!! The  Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Stunna Lip Paint Longwear Fluid Lip Color Unlocked  is gorgeous. Another formula, which is a very wearable matte is the Sephora Collection Lip Stain Liquid Matte, and if you can get a set, they're a steal. Another good option would be to wait for either a Sephora Favorites or Ulta kit to try a bunch!! Also, I really like the PMG lippies, and a lot are on sale, and Pink Ultraness may be similar pink wise. @WhereYouStand. There are so many amazing lip formulas though!! 

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

@haleyvvvv thank you! i will definitely be checking out all these recommendations. and thanks for linking the Fenty lip color below. I will definitely keep my eyes peeled for good lip kits as well.

hopefully this reflects the purple shade I have currently in my hair

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

Hi,

 

I like how you used yellow and green for your eyeshadow! Do you have recommendations for eyeshadow looks for tan skin and brown eyes by the way?

 

Your purple is pretty warm while I don't know what your skin undertone is, but you can do something warm based for your bright lip too to match the hair. Or you could do something totally unnatural like a metallic blue or warm green. I personally didn't like the shades Pat Mcgrath makes, but she makes pretty unique lip colors by combining brown and purple as an undertone with an overt red or pink. It could be worth looking into (just beware, I didn't think the lip model colors were accurate). Colourpop is affordable for reds.

 

I think it's hard to go wrong with lip gloss, I really love Tower 28's everything. The berry gloss would look good with the hair.

Re: Lipstick recommendations for purple hair?

Hi @persinammon unfortunately I am unsure of what eye shadows to pair with brown eyes and tan skin.  for eye shadow looks i typically watch YouTube tutorials and experiment that way. sorry I wish i could be of more help in this area. I am unsure of my undertone I want to say its cool ive been told that but I've also  been told I've warm at other times so am confused in that regard. I am unfamiliar with pat McGrath products. as for Color pop I just bought my first eyeshadow palettes from them recently and  I am open to exploring their lip products. tower 28 sounds interesting as well.
