Read ahead to learn how you can find your perfect shade of red lipstick with guidance and pro tips from the experts at Lancôme.
How Makeup Artists Choose Red Lipstick
When selecting the best red lipstick for you, we tapped our National Makeup Artist, Jasmine Ferreira for her expert advice. “Match the undertone of the lipstick to your skin’s undertone. Cool with cool. Warm with warm. Cool tones have more of a blue base and warm tones have more of an orangey-red base. For neutral skin tones, true reds work best, which are a mix of both blue and orange red.” – Jasmine Ferreira. Red lipstick can look great on anyone, you just need to find the right rouge for your skin tone. Here’s a quick guide:
- 适合白皙肤色的红色唇膏,可以尝试:具有蓝色底色的冷红色或浆果色调
- 适合中度颜色或橄榄肤色的红色唇膏,可以尝试:具有橙色或珊瑚色底色的红色唇膏
- 适合深肤色的红色唇膏,可以尝试:冷色或暖红色唇膏,从鲜艳的樱桃红到深浆果色
如何根据白皙肤色选择最适合我们的红色唇膏
也称为蓝红色,冷红色不会与白皙皮肤中常见的冷底色相冲突,使妆容看起来令人过于强烈或带出瑕疵。较白皙的皮肤类型通常会让皮肤更易显得发红,因此最好使用覆盖度更全面的粉底来让肤色变得均匀。白皙的皮肤可以选择更柔和的红色调唇膏,因为已经与皮肤形成对比 - 但它也能够毫不费力地打造超亮的红色唇膏色调。Try L’Absolu Rouge Cream Lipstick in 148 Bisou Bisou for a cool ruby red shade or go bold with 132 Caprice De Rouge, a cool fiery red. For a soft matte finish, try L'Absolu Rouge Intimatte’s blue-red shades, like 525 French Bisou, a cool strawberry red, or 130 Peau Contre Peau, a cool bright red.
MUA Tip: Wearing red lipstick with a blue base can make your teeth look whiter!
如何根据中性颜色或橄榄肤色选择最适合我们的红色唇膏
For a medium skin tone or olive skin tone, it’s recommended that you lean towards red lipsticks that are warmer, with hues of orange in them, like coral shades. This range of skin tones tends to have more warmth in their undertones, so any red lipstick with orange, yellow, or even gold is fair game. L’Absolu Rouge Drama Matte Lipstick in 505 Attrape Coeur is a warm scarlet red that could be perfect for you. For a more orange-toned red lipstick, try the shade 196 French Touch a warm orange red available in both a cream and matte finish. If you have medium skin with neutral undertones, a cool brick red like L’Absolu Rouge Cream Lipstick in 888 French Idol, could be your perfect shade.
How to Choose the Best Red Lipstick for Deep Skin
The sky is the limit for those with deep skin tones. “You can wear such a range of reds from true cherry to fiery reds, to berry shades” explains Jasmine Ferreira. This means you can choose either a red lipstick with warm undertones or a red lipstick with cool undertones. A true red lipstick is a staple pick, although you can easily play with intense reds, berry shades, purple and wine reds, and even chocolate brown reds. Below are just some of our top picks:
- L’Absolu Rouge Cream Lipstick in shade 118 French Cœur is a warm reddish-brown shade.
- L’Absolu Rouge Drama Matte Lipstick in shade 507 Boom Badaboom is a cool berry red.
- L’Absolu Rouge Intimatte Soft Matte Lipstick in shade 282 Tout Doux is a warm pinky brick shade.
For a showstopping look, opt for a bright red shade, like L’Absolu Rouge Intimatte Soft Matte Lipstick in shade 130 Peu Contre Peu, which contrasts with deep skin to make a red lip really pop.

如何选择红色唇膏的妆效
Once you’ve found the most flattering shade of red for your skin tone, it’s time to choose your finish, as there are sheer, cream, and red matte lipsticks out there. 要找到适合您的选择,请想想您的生活方式以及在什么情况下会涂上您最耀眼的红色唇膏。
光泽红唇效果:如果您在寻找不张扬的的红色唇彩,可以试试兰蔻菁纯漆光唇釉明快的光泽色彩,对上妆的要求平易近人,无需繁琐地打理。但如果您想保持唇膏颜色像刚化好妆一样,也可以重新涂抹。红色唇彩是为双唇增添闪亮光泽的绝佳选择,如果您不太钟意超级大胆的红唇,它就是完美之选。您可以轻松打造纯粹的红色唇彩或具有生动色彩效果的高光泽红唇,因为这款产品的配方让它可以清透到 1-2 3层的覆盖效果都能大显身手。
奶油效果红色唇膏:如果您喜欢经典的奶油效果唇膏,我们的全新菁纯柔润丝缎唇膏就是不二之选 — 这款奶油是效果唇膏富含30 % 的保湿玫瑰香膏,可提供长达 18 小时的舒适感和长达 8 小时保湿效果,带来亮泽的奶油效果和丝滑触感。尽管具有超凡的奶油质地,这款唇膏也可打造防晕染的唇彩,不会渗入唇线,因此如果您喜欢奶油色唇膏并且正在寻找一款手感舒适且带有一丝光泽的奢华红唇,那么它的红色唇膏配方就是您的理想之选。
哑光效果红色唇膏:如果您发现自己没有时间补妆,那么哑光唇膏的好处是它们往往能很好地贴合双唇 — 比超级闪亮的唇彩、缎面妆效和清透的浅色更为贴合 — 所以能让妆容保持一整天(尽管您可能需要检查是否有晕染)。虽然有些唇膏会有拔干的现象,但我们的产品却并非如此。试试 L'Absolu Rouge Drama Matte Lipstick(菁纯幻影哑光唇膏)。这些哑光、天鹅绒般质地的唇膏含有透明质酸和玫瑰复合精粹,滋润双唇并且不会云软,也就是说它们有持久的上唇效果。由纯颜料粉末制成,只需轻轻一抹即可获得强烈大胆色彩的妆效,并为双唇留下充满活力的哑光效果,它们非常适合打造大胆的哑光红唇。
如果您喜欢经典的粉状哑光效果和近乎柔和的模糊唇妆效果,请试试我们的 菁纯柔雾哑光唇膏,只需轻轻一抹即可呈现柔和的哑光色泽。富含神经酰胺和玫瑰复合精粹,可做底妆、轻盈、舒适,可毫不费力在双唇上滑过,并提供长达 12 小时的舒适感。
如果您更喜欢使用红色液体唇膏 – 试试菁纯柔雾哑光水唇釉。华丽的哑光效果,其成分和配方不同于经典的子弹头唇膏。它质地轻盈,不干燥,但持久耐用,具有唇膏颜色效果的配方,在凝固后看起来是色彩丰盈加倍。最重要的是,您可以不用在意唇线笔,因为专利涂抹器能确保极致的精确度,因此您可以用红色唇膏打造完美利落的收边和妆效。总而言之,它是打造哑光红唇的完美之选 — 高色素配方确保了最大的色彩冲击,并为您留下不会渗色或羽化的奢华半哑光效果。
如何涂抹红色唇膏
To apply red lipstick, first make sure lips are hydrated. Next, line your lips with a red lip pencil which can serve as a lip primer of sorts. You can also use a touch of concealer or foundation to prime the lips. Then, apply lipstick in a matching shade, or whichever lip combo you choose, directly from the tube. 按照这个顺序,您将获得清晰度和强烈的妆效。为了看起来更自然,先涂上红色唇膏,然后用唇线笔嘴唇上描画。
MUA Tip: Separate a tissue into two thin sheets, holding just one against your lips, and dusting translucent powder over the top. Not only will this set your lipstick, but it can also turn any lipstick into a matte lipstick too!
红色唇膏的搭配小技巧
Teint Idole Ultra 24 H Long Wear Foundation((长效无痕舒适粉底液)等可叠加粉底使用,确保您的肌肤看起来完美无瑕且具有哑光效果。虽然您可以随心所欲地打造妆容,我们还是强烈推荐将眼妆用品简化回睫毛膏和眼线笔,保持红色唇膏的突出效果。
