The K-beauty scene has redefined makeup with its unique approach to beauty, especially in lip products that range from natural to glam.
Here are the top three Korean lipstick brands that deserve a spot in your makeup bag! These brands offer shades and formulas perfect for everyday wear, as well as options for when you want to elevate your look for something more glamorous.
Knowing Your Colours
Finding the right lip colour can elevate your entire look! The first step to this is knowing your skin tone.
Start by examining the veins on the inside of your wrist. If they appear blue or purple, you likely have a cool undertone. If they look greenish, you may have a warm undertone. If you can’t determine whether they are blue or green, you might have a neutral undertone.
If you have a yellow skin tone, you’ll shine in warm shades like coral, peach, and brick red.
For those with cool skin tones, go for cool-toned colours such as pinks, mauves, and blue-based reds.
