6 Make up tips for fair skinned redheads

Fair skinned redheads

Makeup shades need to be chosen according to the skin complexion and the hair color. For a red head, it becomes all the more essential to pick a shade in accordance with hair color. The color should match up with red and the fair skinned complexion. While vibrant pink can suit a fair skinned person, it would look disastrous with a red head and thus is a color that redheads should always avoid. Here is a makeup color guide for fair skinned redheads. Read on and select your colors wisely.

1. Makeup/ Foundation

Select a shade of foundation which is a maximum of one or two shades lighter than your skin tone. Shades lighter than or darker than your complexion should be avoided. Many red heads tend to have cute freckles on their face. If you want to cover them up for an occasion, select a good concealer by following the above mentioned ‘shade’ rule. You have fair skin and you have every right to flaunt it !

2. Eye shadow

Here is your chance to creative. If you want your eyes to stand out, choose a color of eye shadow that contrasts with your red hair. A palette of greens will go well with you. If you want to play the look down a little, go with warm shades of brown and add a little of cream, gold or beige under the outer edge of the brow to add lift to your eyes.

3. Eye liner

Eye liner defines your eyes and beautifies it. Choose an eye liner with golden tones to bring out the gold in your hair. Leave the lines bold for a dramatic effect. Smudge it a little to look less played up.

4. Lips

If you are interested in a monochromatic look go for a red with gold or brown undertones lipstick. Nude lip colors are hot and they can give you a glam but more natural look. Don’t forget your lip gloss !

5. Mascara

As most red heads tend to have brown lashes, accentuate them with brown mascara. Black is not recommended as they tend to look too harsh on redheads.

6. Blush

A light brown or soft apricot blush will transform most red heads into pretty blushing beauties.
