- Let's talk about lipsticks! How to find the perfect lipstick shade for your skin tone? In this video, I try on 18 different lipstick colors, from gold to red, from brown to pink and purple, from matte to glossy textures. It is easier to find the right lipstick for you by comparison, instead of looking at one color alone.

A tip, if you buy a bold colour that you love but you are not confident to wear full-on colour, you can a apply a little bit of the colour and blend it in, you can work your way up to a full coverage when you get more confident.
Good tip!
I put on a clear lip balm on first and it will cause less friction between your lips and the lipstick making the color look more sheer.
Hope Moskal What I do everyday! I love it, it makes even the darkest colors appear somewhat natural.
How you can talk for 20 minutes wearing old-fashioned lipstick and not eating it all?
Sira Mea Applying it over lip balm also sheers out a color. Or, try patting it on with your finger and then rubbing your lips together back and forth, in and out, to get a stain effect.
It's not a disaster if you buy a colour that doesn't suit you. You can mix it with other lipsticks and end up with something really nice.
Frida Bergholtz or you can recycle it into blush.
I didn't know that. Sounds neat.
I even recycle them into eyeshadows cuz i don’t want to spend so much money on pallettes that look almost identical.
When it looks washed out then mix with somewhat darker shade and if it's too dark then first apply on hand and dab on the lips and slowly mix with lighter shade..
Marilyn Monroe was said to have mixed 5 or so different shades of red to achieve her signature red lip. .
Something I don’t see mentioned often is how the natural colour of your lips affect the shades that you can wear. If you have fairly pigmented lips, even if you are fair in skintone, paler lipsticks will make you look sickly and bloodless, like when people put concealer on their lips to take out the colour.
Diana Dai I totally agree with you. Would be nice, if Justine could do a video about that in future. :)
Diana Dai I have this problem too. I am very fair with grey blue eyes and red lips. I wish they were pink. I have to use full coverage lipstick to hide my natural lip colour.
Bang on!
The standard set of rules are based on ideal (and not real) skin conditions, unfortunately, and cater only to a small subset of the population.
Which is why I do my facial makeup (whatever little I wear) after I wore clothes and basic jewelry. Whether it is eyeshadow or lipstick, if I look in the mirror (with clothes and jewelry in perspective) and it looks decent, I keep it; if not, I tweak it.
We can always mix shades to arrive at the right shade. And this is what normal women do :)
Susan Crawford I have quite dark mauvey lips, and I find that I look best in lip shades that are equal or more intense in tint than my bare lips - the exact colour is less important than the intensity of the pigment and the amount of white in it. Any lipstick with a hint of white in it will look chalky and “painted on”, and because you can usually see my dark lips peeking out through the lipstick.
Jyothirmayi Sharma yep, I usually have to test my makeup against an outfit too. I think that should go for all women - it helps you work out the balance of colours and how much “made-up-ness” you’re going for.
Jewellery is an interesting one. I wear gold, silver and rose gold jewellery, sometimes mixing metals, because I have a mix of cool and warm undertones (though warm is more dominant). It’s interesting how different metals play off against different colours in outfit and makeup!
I hope that beauty companies will come to the point when they‘ll mark their products as C, N or W like some of them finally do with their foundations! Don‘t know why customer orientation is such an issue 😏
Seriously! I just bought a concealer from L'Oreal and it's with WARM on it, so much easier and it's perfect with my skin. :) Hope they are all going to be doing this soon!
In the early 1980s my grandmother sold Avon makeup and all of the products were clearly marked with either a C, W or N depending on whether it was cool, warm or neutral, I have always wondered why other makeup companies didn't do that for their products, good to hear they are beginning to jump into the early 1980s Avon makeup sales tactics hahaha!
Because they want you to buy more colors than you'll actually need! :)
That is such a fantastic idea! I wish!
They would rather you buy lots of their products until you find the right one
How many lipsticks or eye shadows do you own yet not use?
I’m a late bloomer into lipsticks and this video is so clarifying and crisp! I love that you are remarkably so jovial in your videos.
Justine....always so helpful and wonderful! There is a clear difference between her videos and other videos, she actually helps you understand what would work for you and what not, rather than some generic tips.
My perfect shade is a dusty rose. Any lipstick in a medium mauve pink perfectly compliments my skin. I get the most compliments when I wear a red that is only slightly to the purple side.
seattlegrrlie Dusty rose matches my lip color. I have neutral skin, tending toward warm. Most people react best to my look when I'm wearing a coral-pink lipstick, even though a make-up artist thought I was nuts. I'm not sure why she said that; I'm a Warm Spring, and that color is in my range.
Same! Dusty, soft rose colors suit me so well. I used to wear red, but the older I get (and the less I’m in the sun), the less it seems to suit me. I’m fair, a soft summer, blonde, and blue-eyed.
Seattlegrrlie... Same but also I think I m warm toned as gold jewelry suit well on my skin , also I have veins blue & mostly green.. I m confused urghhh
Hi Justine! My I suggest for you to make a video about materials combinations, like does leather goes with wool or some other combo is better, or maybe about textures and what goes well together?
Thank you for the time you share with us followers :)
Yay! I love red lipstick! I always wear a very bright and slightly warm red because my lips are naturally dark and pigmented, it balances it self out and gives me a classic red somehow haha
Very well done Justine. Sometimes it is hard to determine the cool and warm pinks. Also this could be applied to picking blush colours. Love your videos xo
True, and there are also cool and warm shades of mauve and purple.
Wine with everything has been one of my favorites for many years!
I love red lipsticks! And even though I have a warm undertone, I find I can get away with the cool tones (and in fact, prefer them) if I think carefully about the rest of my makeup.
One great tip if you buy something that doesn't quite work is to try it with different lip liners. Something darker to create an ombre, in brown or plum or just a deeper red, can totally change the look, as it's suddenly no longer directly next to the skin of your face, so your eye doesn't notice the mismatch :)
O My Goodness. Wine With Everything. .. that was my mom's shade. 👄💖💖💖
3:08 I love when she say Givenchy
I always end up with a dusty rose gloss for day, maybe a slightly stronger muted pinky berry mauve shade for evening outings. As a pastel leaning Summer (colour me beautiful) person, I don't like bright matt lipsticks - even ones that are in my palette. Winters look best with bright shades, I think.
I just realized from watching this video how much my favorite lip colors lean towards the cool end of the spectrum. I like dark pinks and they are usually a bit on the purplish side. I also really like the texture of tinted chapsticks. They don't feel as thick on my lips as some lipsticks and they are great as I tend to have dry skin.
I've been hoping for this video for SO long! Your lipstick choices are always spot on!
Thank you so much for those videos, they are amazing
The add blue undertone is so true for cool toned skin... teeth look whiter too
I’ve noticed that certain lipstick and blush shades look better with wardrobe items that are also in the warm or cool range.
Justine. Be advice. I ve struggled for years and bought scores of lipstick s over the years that were totally different when I got home!! This is soooo useful. I am a firm fan of your fashion advice thank you so much x
😩 i have pale skin with warm undertone... makes it a little tricky, still on the look for the perfect red
Pamela&Steven En China I have the same problem but was able to find a great red today based on the swatch technique in this video. I bought a color that was too pink yesterday, so I went back to the store and compared other colors to that color until I found one that didn’t look pink at all. It was much more orange than I would usually buy, but when I tried it on at home it was perfect!
MaryAnne Donnovan What did you buy?
Jill Radcliffe I wanted to start with less expensive lipsticks since I knew they might not look good. NYX chic red looked good on my arm but was too pink, but NYX perfect red looked orange on my arm and was perfect on my face!
i'm certainly going to use that advice to my advantage. thanks for the tip :)
Me, too. I find that using a lip brush and applying a thinner layer of red lipstick looks better on me, same with my dark, "aubergine," color.
Bonjour Justine.
Great. ..as usual!
Personnally as I m very picky with ingredients, I use only lipstick pencils, then I put my home made lipbalm with beewax and vegetal oils....So I end up creating my own color and it s very nourrishing.
And the trick is to find the right color of pencil.
This is my favourite video of yours so far Justine! I am a absolute lover of lipsticks, to the point where I have a makeup bag which contains all my lip products, which is as big as my other makeup bag which contains everything else (i.e. foundation, blusher, mascara, highlighters, eyeshadows etc). I have probably every shade of most colours you could think of (except crazy colours like blue or green or something like that). I tend to gravitate towards cool reds as I have a cool undertone, but when the summertime begins I tend to reach for more warmer colours just for fun. Love this video, I would love to see your lipstick collection! Love from the uk 🇬🇧 xxx
I haven't even watched the video yet, but I wanted to say thank you for the regularly-uploaded interesting content! It's become almost a ritual for me: sunday coffee + Justine's video. :) Greetings from Latvia!
thank you so much!
You are right about the part where you said there are other factors that influence the look of a lipstick. Its not just your undertone. It could be your clothes, hair color, the rest of your make up, your personality or even the day of your menstrual cycle. It might sound crazy but holds true for me 😃.
Thank you for a very good video! With all your videos about colour and undertones, you've helped me understand why I'm drawn to certain colours in clothing and makeup. I've unconsciously chosen the colours that fit my skin tone. :) I would love to see another lipstick video about how to choose more nude colours for your lips, because I find that even harder than the red colours.
True, nudes are hard. I wonder how they would show on camera, because the camera makes colors look a bit different from reality... I will have to try...
PS: Lisa Eldridge has a good video on nude lipsticks.
Laidi Kirsta I would love to see a video on nude lipsticks as these are one of the hardest colours to find to match your skin tone.
Thanks for the tip about Lisa Eldridge, will check that out. And yes, the camera colours might make it difficult... It would still be helpful to get to know more about which nude colours goes with which skin tone!
Justine, this is valuable information as usually AND
YOU LOOK STUNNING in this pullover with your beautiful long hair on one side!!! Vraiment très très féminin, chère Justine!!
Tout de bon!!!
This is literally the most helpful video I've ever seen on determining lip color! By far more helpful than any Sephora, Ulta, or beauty brands employee has ever been! Your video on how to identify undertones applied to this definitely makes me feel more confident when choosing now! Thank you!!
This is so informative! Turns out, the day I watched this video, I was wearing a sample red Matte gloss from YSL, beautiful red simply amazing texture & orange based, and completely wrong color for me! And, I had been walking around most of the day probably looking like a clown. Thank you for giving me a direction towards finding my go-to red lip color!
Undertone is so important. I wanted a bright pink and everything I tried made me look ill. Then the girl at the counter gave me a lipstick labeled as 'raspberry' but it looks pink on me! Nice video!
English with french accent is soooo beautiful ❤
In Ireland for a local brand called No 7, they have machine kind of thing in-store which finds your exact shade of foundation you need and based on the foundation they will also give a pallete of lipsticks that will suit you. I found it helpful.
oh I'd like to try that machine!
Dark matte red 😍 a forever favourite. I'm fair with pinkish undertone, dark red looks very bold so I save it for parties for everyday its pink.
You are definitely one of my favorite youtubers. Always very informative, thank you Justine❤
I’m very pale and cold toned but i will never stop wearing orange toned lipsticks,blushes amd eyeshadows! i just love them too much 😫
I really liked the pink/purples when you held them up against that top 💜💚
Dear Justine, discovered you a week ago, you are a joy! Kisses from Belgrade
As an Asian, I always thought I have warm tone. Until last year I saw this, I decided to buy cool green clothes and my friend said I look fabulous. I also swap my lipstick to deep cool red and it suit my looks. Thanks a lot.
Perfect!!
I always thought that I have a warm undertone because I rock browns and golds on my eyes and it looks amazing, while silver and blues on my eyes make me look weird. BUT I love lipsticks on the cool side and those on the warm side, I like gold jewelery as much as silver, tending to silver and white makes me look radiant.
So I figured I am neutral. After all, my veins look both blue-ish and green-ish.
Thanks for the video!
I only wake up at 6am on a Sunday if I get a Justine notification. Loved this! Thanks ☺
Omg it's been so long since I've watched your videos... I've been so busy. I've missed your personality and intelligence ❤️
The warm toned lipstick suits my warm undertone, however it makes my teeth appear more yellow. If I choose cool toned lipstick to tone down my slightly yellow teeth, it doesn't suit my warm undertone and makes my skin looks off. What should I do?
Go neutral red, right in the center of the color range.
I’ve been using Chanel’s Rouge Coco 05 and classic skin colour for years, but now find that Chanel’s 434 is a better fit for more mature, paler skin tone. It is not too dark, but not too loud or harsh for daytime. Tried many others, but can’t find a good “fit” so I went back to Chanel colours
Thank you for the great tips on finding the correct shade of red lipstick. I'm warm undertone and have the hardest time finding the right red for me. Most that look like a basic classic red in the tube, when I put them on are way to blue. I have to go way over on the orange side for it to look like a true red once I apply it. I like your tip on keeping the lipstick that didn't work and taking it with you the next time you shop for lipstick as a reference for what to stay away from. I have fair skin, and have found I can't go too dark like you said, but I also find that light gloss tends to wash me out. This was great thank you for taking the time to do this Justine. BTW your skin looks radiant today.
I just love your videos. You are very educated about fashion and taking your advice seems the right decision.
That colour is great on you. It brings out the red tones in your hair.
Truly needed this!! Esp picking a red for me. Thank you so much!!! ❤
I've been watching your videos for a couple weeks. They are all so well put together. Easy to follow along with useful advice and info. You have such a lovely persona. I love how each video can be watched alone or on a binge. I tend to watch a few in succession that relate to each other and get better inspired on how to carry out a look and expand my personal style. Thank you for all your work.
Thank you!
I love trying on lipsticks but out of all the lipsticks I have, there are only 2 that I invariably reach for. My coloring changed as I aged, so the mauves and brown-roses I once wore are awful on me now, make me look like a Halloween ghost bride. Bold reds are too bright, make me look like a painted lady. A sales associate in a department store convinced me to try a light, bright, cool pink - Barbie doll pink, almost neon - and I thought no way, that's not me. Surprise! It's the one I always wear now. It looks great. It works because it's a sheer gloss. My other staple is a Revlon (drugstore) cream color called Blush, a warm coral-pink which adds a little brightness and warmth but isn't glaring. When I was younger I would never have chosen either of these. But these two take me everywhere. I would advise, ask someone who is trained in a cosmetics line, whichever one you like, to make a recommendation. Keep an open mind and you might be surprised.
I have pale skin and I find what suits me isn’t dependent on whether it’s cool or warm toned, but actually the tone itself; how saturated and light the shade is. I can wear true red, various oranges, and very bright, almost neon mauve pink. I can also make quite a sweet bright pink work, tho now I have red hair that is tricky! Dark colours, brick, burgundy, brownish red, muted reds and pinks look AWFUL on me. I have to go bright or totally neutral. I have a fairly small mouth and I think that is part of the cause - dark shades make it look even smaller! And dull shades wash me out. If I wear lipstick at all I need that pop of saturation to wake up my face. The exception to this rule is that I found an amazing soft neutral pink NYX lip pencil (it’s also great under the eyes) - and blending that over an intense bright shade gives me the softer feel that I just can’t get from choosing more muted shades in the first place.
An orange red lipstick also looks amazing on cool fair skin if you have blue eyes but it has to be predominantly red i find. I love nyx soft matte in morroco for a nice summer colour :3
Thank you for another interesting video! I bought yesterday a purple red and just when I began to feel it was a big mistake I tried it with a turcoise dress and the whole me came to shine. Colour theory in action!
it seems like an excellent combination :-)
Not sponsored or anything (just a very happy customer) but you can also check Lisa Eldridge’s lipsticks, she perfectly explains the undertones in each of them and they are so flattering to the face when you choose something with your own undertones!
Hi Justine. Lipstick shades are so tricky. Thank you for your tips! You're so right, lights matter. I bought so many lipsticks from well-lit department stores that were different shades when I got home!! Love your videos. Cannot wait for the next one xx
yes... the light in department stores... so tricky!
Can your skintone change from cold to warm with aging? In my teens silver suited me but now almost 48, goldtones are better. Hugs from Belgium🙋
I have been picking lipsticks intuitively and it has been working well, looking back at my purchases I have only one lipstick on the warmer side, the rest is in the middle or cool tones which really justify my pale coller skin tone. Any color with a hint of pink looks well with me n does not stand out too much too.
How do you do it? You manage to make everything so logical! You've even found the science to choosing a perfect lip color. I just love your brain!!! Thank you for the way you present these topics to us. You are brilliant! ❤️
After going through all the lipsticks I own, I've found that in order to find the colour I want I need to get something slightly warmer and lighter than what I'm thinking of getting (eg. reds with a bit of orange, or pinks with coral) as my spring complexion makes lipsticks look cooler and darker than how they look on their own. It's good to know when you're unable to swatch the lipsticks
great learning. You seem to have a good eye for color! :-)
Thanks! It's hard when I'm naturally attracted to the cooler colours (purple is my favourite colour) but you can't argue with logic :)
You mentioned how to pick a shade based on tone ONLY. Its my personal opinion that there's one more factor that adds to the decision making process and that's the shape of the lips. I have had very beautiful shades of lipstick but because I have big lips, I needed to mix the lipstick with a lighter shade just to give the lips a dimension.
the texture can achieve that too (glossy, matt, etc.), how pigmented the lipstick is, and also the contouring pencil that you use. There are ways to "modify" the shape of your lips just using color ;-)
I luv red, pink and also brown color lipstick shades. It suits me . Justine u look superb always. Luv ur style .
Your style colours are my favourite colours x
Purple and berries suit me more, and gloss as well. Matt lipstick usually too much for me. Thanks Justine, great, great videos!!
I truly just love your French accent, only heard it in movies.. so nice
This colour of sweater looks beautiful on you! Love your videos...very inspirational.
Lipstick is my vice. I have lots of them. With a pale but warm tone skin tone, blonde hair and blue eyes, I've rarely found a lip color I don't enjoy wearing.
I love makeup and especially lipsticks (and blushes), thanks Justine for this useful tip!
Thank you for another very helpful video. I am a new flight attendant and red lipstick is part of our uniform so choosing the right one is essential.
Love your approach, Justine!
My veins are both green, blue, and purple. So tricky!
Thank you Justine. I always have trouble finding a lipstick that I think suits me. This helps.
Thank you for this video Justine. I have had a lot of questions about what lipsticks to wear and up until now I have not felt confident in this area. It helps that I share your taste and your skin tone. Now I will know what shades to wear and what will most flatter me.
I love this, it's so different from most lipstick videos I've seen
Red is the most difficult colour for me to find! I am very pale and my skin is completely neutral! My brown hair and green eyes makes my colouring warm but my lips are naturally blue-red and they change the colour of the red lipsticks completely! I have found that if the red lipstick appears to be brownish red then it will look pure red on my lips which looks the best.
Great video and examples. Experimentation is really important. I have light olive skin with green veins and my skin turns golden when tanned. But orange-toned lipsticks make me look washed out and dead, drain the life right out of my complexion. I can wear purples and wines like nobody's business, but didn't figure that out until trying all kinds of colors. : )
Nice, I never thought of comparing in this way.
I have warm undertones but pinks look great on me, especially one that has purple in it.
I love your videos ❤️
They are all very helpful💞
Justine you really are a fashion Guru! Hugs from Costa Rica
I have tried every single red for the past 20 years. And every single time it just makes me look all pasty and washed out.
But I noticed I really look good in pink. I have three shades I work with even one bold shade of pink that I wear when I have naked eyes.
I look forward to your videos each week Justine.Thank you so much.
Love you Justine ❤😇
You know I find it difficult to distinguish between cool and warm colours lately when the comparison is not in principal shade varients.. so I tend to look at the model's undertone wearing the colour 😅
But.. I know you're on the cooler side.. somehow you look warm today.. anyway beautiful 😊
Lots of love from India 🙏😇
Don't rely on my skin tone: the camera changes colors and then the color correction (when editing the video) too... So you might see me warm one week and cool the next.
Oh this helped. My mother always had the perfect shade of red. Now... Off to find mine!
These videos are so helpful.
Merci Justine! This video is right on time! I'm repurchasing make up at the moment and lipstick was the next thing on my list. I'm a brand new subscriber, just found you a week ago and have been going through all your videos. Honestly, I never used to subscribe to anyone on TH-cam. Je suis francaise aussi, a l'etranger depuis longtemps et j'adore vraiment ton etat d'esprit dans lequel je me retrouve beaucoup. Keep it up!
I like to layer my colors instead of just wearing one shade, so I have a number of colors that I keep to achieve the color I like. And BTW I really like your videos so informative and so friendly. Thanks!!
Thanks!
Another great, useful video....soooo appreciated. Thank you!
I love your beautiful smile
:D since I am a strictly drugstore shopper with no testers, I find comparing the lipstick with the color of my thumbnail works for me, if the color is compatible there, it always works on the lip.
With hair color, anytime I get a good chop, I ask the stylist to give me a chunk for testing hair color at home. I also saved a large peice from when I was much younger, knowing that my hair would get darker as I aged. I use it as a benchmark when choosing a new color.
I found my perfect shade by getting one that matches the inside of my lips/mouth. Mine is Revlon Soft Silver Red, I love it.
Super helpful! I've definitely gotten into the hang of precision with color schemes and/or certain cosmetic shades, except am more iffy on lipstick shades. To the point where I feel lip balms and/or glosses, or lining may be nice (though I care in having lipsticks that suit me). I notice warm, orange shades suit me very nicely, nearly nude in appearance but in a warm tone. I'll def. try this method, thank you Justine!
I'm veins are blue and green. I've come to the conclusion that I might be transitional between warm spring and autumn as some colours from each palette suit me.
I loved the end note.Glad people like Me out there 😉
This is really a good guide for the ones searching for a help in the context of Lip Colors ❤
Insightful, and I must say your hands are very graceful, elegant.
Hello Justine! I discovered your channel through Jenny Mustard. I couldn't help but laugh when you said (in another video) that you pay attention on caracthers outfits instead of the story... 'cause I'm the same way and thougth the other people would think I'm foolish... Love your channel
Hahaha 😉 Be welcome here!
Thank you very much that was really helpful 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼♥️♥️♥️♥️😘
store light is sooo tricky.. I always run around the store hunting for mirrors next to the entrance (sunglasses displays etc) where there's natural light, or proudly walk my lipstick-zebra arm outside to see the "real" colours :D
Very helpful, thank you
Your videos always help, Justine!
I didn't have a problem with colour classification; I am classic winter, cool. But like Sira Mea, I also find mixing a solid matte undertone with a lighter shimmer still more comfortable. Actually what I am most comfortable with, although my nail polish is ladybug red, usually, is to match the undertone of my lipstick to the colour of the inside of my mouth, if that doesn't see a bit weird, so it comes out actually as, let's say, Sienna brick, which doesn't seem to fit any classification, but does work with my skin. Highly nuanced perhaps but a solution that worked. Experimenting is great fun. I used to think lips and nails should match; this works for me however. I'm also mindful of your advice not to over-emphasize both your eyes or eyebrows and lips; one or the other, and since I have very well-defined eyebrows that I don't need to worry about, perhaps the other features are not as important. Lots of fun!
