Weddings have been happening since time began and so many of the traditions we know and practice today have existed for decades. One such interesting tradition is the…
A bold red lip makes you feel powerful. We know! There’s nothing like a good red lipstick. Dressed up or dressed down, red lipstick can be paired with almost anything, making it the go-to for many.
The only problem: finding the perfect red lipstick is no small task. Your skin tone is a major determinant in which red you should go for. That’s why the red lip that your friend wears (the one you love to death) doesn’t have the same effect on your lips.
We’re of the opinion that your handbag should always have a red lipstick inside it. So, here is a quick and easy guide to finding the perfect one for you.
For a fair complexion
Go for a blue-based or pink-based red lipstick. The cool tones will contrast well with your fair complexion because of its pink-based undertone.
Our pick: Maybelline Made For All Lipstick by Color Sensational in Red-For-Me R139.95

For a medium complexion
Opt for an orange-based red. This will bring a brightening look to your skin tone and remove any pallidness.
Our pick: M A C Matte Lipstick in Lady Danger R260

For an olive complexion
Look for a brick or rust tinted red. You could also go for a coral or orange base. An olive complexion carries a yellow-green undertone. Earthy toned lipsticks will work effortlessly with your skin.
Our pick: NYX Butter Lipstick in Mary Janes R129.95

For a dark complexion
A darker complexion allows for a wider variety of reds. If you want a bold look, opt for a deep, true red. If you want a more natural look, go for blue-based reds.

A semi-formal dress code is just above cocktail and below formal. The time and location of the wedding should help guide your outfit. If the wedding is in the evening, you should wear more structured clothing in darker shades, if it is in the day, wear light colours and fabrics.
Men
Wear a suit and tie or a smart blazer with a button down shirt. Pair your clothing with a smart pair of leather shoes.
