Lipstick to combine with a purple or violet dress
Not all purple or lilac dresses are the same: there are straight-cut and strapless ones for special occasions, A-line skirts for everyday wear, soft tones, and other more powerful ones. For this reason, not all lipsticks stick, you have to choose the depending on what your dress is like, the occasion, and, your tastes. Let’s see this in detail to clear doubts.
Red lipstick to wear with a purple dress, it is possible!
- Can I paint my lips if I have decided on a purple dress? Yes of course. And, in addition, you can also do it if your dress is purple, lilac, mauve, or lavender, any shade is fine! Of course, you should keep in mind that it is not convenient to overcharge your outfit or the rest of your makeup, right?
- For this, we recommend that the colors that go in the rest of your clothes be neutral or nude and that your makeup follows the ‘no makeup’ rule. That is to say, it almost does not seem that you are wearing makeup. Follow these instructions and you will have a winning mix to wear both day and night.
Purple lips for a purple dress?
- There are times when you can paint your lips in the same color that you wear on your dress; however, there are others when it is not advisable at all… But don’t worry! If you like these tones to also wear on your lips, the best option is to choose matte burgundy.
- It is a color that looks very good and gives a lot of play to mix with these very modern dresses. Soft or intense pink is another option to consider, even more so if you have opted for eye shadows in purple or lilac tones.
Choose nude lipstick and you will not regret it
- How about betting on nude lipstick? We’d better see this with an example. You wear a lilac floor-length party dress, and evening make-up marked by intense black, pink, and grayish gradient eye shadow, and a little blush on your cheeks. To complete, you add a black line under the eye for a feline look that will not leave anyone indifferent.
- And to finish this beautiful look, there is nothing better than just a bit of gloss to give volume and texture to your lips. You do not need anything else, because the attention is focused on your dress and your look. Your lips only give the note of balance that each self-respecting ensemble needs so much.
Take care of your lips so that they look perfect
Once you have chosen the most suitable lipstick for this type of ensemble, all that remains is to remember that to have a safe and complete success you have to take care of your lips. But how can you do it? Pay close attention to these steps!
- Always remove your make-up when you get home, and never go to bed with make-up on as it will damage your skin.
- Use a moisturizing balm whenever you want. We recommend that you always carry neutral Vaseline with you to put on top of your makeup several times a day.
- Lips from time to time, whenever necessary. If you paint your lips well but do not take care of them as they need, it will be of little use to you.
