The different shades of red: How to pick ones to go with your skin tone

Finding the right shade is what it takes!

Well! Now it's not unknown that the colour red is bold. But also, all the red does not match all skin tones; you need to find out the correct shade of red that matches your tone of the skin. Experimenting never disappoints; in fact, it's human nature to try before buying the stuff, so do try a swatch of different shades of red before purchasing it. Keep in mind that gloss, matte and cream each have a different look on the skin. But before we move deeper, it's okay; anyone can wear whatever red they like, the ones which you feel good and confident with.

Finding your skin undertone

There is a trick to finding your skin tone; now, you can find it through sun exposure or by looking at the veins on your skin. If you get sun tan easily after exposure, then you have medium or dark skin tone, whereas if you get sunburns and turn reddish, then you have fair skin tone. Now look at the veins in your wrist; if it appears blue or purple, you have a light skin tone. If it appears to be green, then you have a warm skin tone, or if you are confused and cannot determine whether it is green or blue, then you have a neutral or medium skin tone.

Dark skin tone

Deep to dusky-skinned ladies can go for really deep reds like maroon or cherry red which will give them a bold look. It would look suitable, and dusky beauties would look really beautiful in those.

Medium skin tone

Medium to fair toned ladies can wear the bright red, which looks vibrant and appear a little pinkish. Thiscolour will pop up and look great.

Light skin tone

The light reds like rose pink rose red, peach colour or apricot pink will suit well. It's your wish if you want to go for bright colours, but that would clash with your skin tone and not give the best out. So, staying away from warm and bright colours would be a smart option.

Fair skin tone

Fair skin demands something pinkish that will flush the skin. It will not only look good, but it will make the fair skin toned people look brighter and also, their teeth will appear to be more white.
