What kind of natural concealer works best, and does anyone have suggestions on choosing red lipstick?

Question

I know the Body Shop sells natural conceaer but I've been wondering what else is out there. I find natural beauty products work best on my skin, and help prevent breakouts. However the concealer I normally use isn't chemical free....Also when purchasing concealer, does anyone have any advice on finding the right color?

Then there is the lipstick. I'm dressing in 20's attire for a party and red lipstick was very popular then. I don't currently own any because I'm not big on lipstick. Although I have heard and discovered myself that it's the most difficult color to find the right shade of.....Please help. I'd really appreciate it

Answer 1

Skin tone is a key consideration. You want makeup colors that match your skin tone.Here's how to determine yours:

Warm skin tone:
1. Look at inner wrist - veins will appear green.
2. Gold jewelry is more flattering than silver jewelry.

Cool skin tone:
1. Look at inner wrist - veins will appear blue.
2. Silver jewelry is more flattering.

Ideally, a concealer should match your skin but provide slightly heavier coverage than foundation. So try it on your jawline & check it in natural light.

L'Oreal True Match concealer is a good place to start.

As for red lipstick, I find that sheer reds are the easiest to apply & wear.

If you have cool toned skin then go for reds w/ a blue undertone - i.e. Crayola crayon red, cherry Lifesaver red, or candy apple red.

If you have warm toned skin then go for reds w/ a bit of brown - i.e. wine red or brick red.

Some suggestions:
Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Cherries in the Glow - a soft neutral red

Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey - a sheer, deep blackberry

BeneFit Lipstick in Birthday Suit - a warm, sheer your lips but better red

Cover Girl TruShine lip colors are a good line to consider. link to product info: http://www.covergirl.com/products/product.jsp?productId=trushine_lipcolor
use the color matching feature

Answer 2

try MAC's slimshine lipsticks. "a clean Lipstick combining creamy emolliency with a special sheer colour pay-off. Finishes contain cream, clean pearl and steel. can grant the shine and moisturizing convenience of a gloss yet with a gentle, non-sticky end. different on and rancid. Comes packaged in its own chic extra-long lipstick case." there are various colorations to make a call from.

Answer 3

For natural concealers/make-up - try the bare escentuals (mineral) make-up. It's very light and your skin will thank you for it. As for red lipstick - just go to a dollar store and I'm betting you'll hit the jackpot!

Answer 4

If you choose to wear a bright red lipstick then have VERY natural looking eye makeup (i'd just wear mascara). Sorry idk about natural concealer, but check sephoras, they have a big variety of foundations/concealers.
