Lipstick Color Guide
Lipstick shades are so confusing to choose from when you don't know what you want. There are millions of color shades in reds, pinks, purples, browns and beige which could look good on you but you can't judge by just looking at them. And you can't try every lip color to make sure it matches your skin tone. Thus you end up buying a neutral shade which you're obviously not very happy about.

This guide will tell you what kind of lip colors and shades would look good and attractive on the kind of skin tone you have. Everyone has a variant skin tone and according to that, there are colors that complement it, thus find out which is your perfect lipstick by matching your skin tone.
