Red is one of the major colors of the season, and a color that you can do no wrong in. Whether it’s an outfit, shoe, or lipstick, this color is undoubtedly one to explore through the festivities. Make a bold statement in red lipstick as you go glam for your formal parties. The great news is: red is one of those lipsticks that come in different shades that complement different skin tones. That is to say, you’ll definitely find one that’s a true match for you.
#4. It’s all about the shimmer
This is the season of shine, and it’s totally right that your makeup flaunts the mood. While metallic tones are the easiest way to go about this, up the game with glitters and/or embellishments. This is a yes for special occasions like a wedding where you’re itching to stand out.

#5. An edgy side
If you’re looking for a smart way to add a bit of edge to a toned-down look, then the winged liner is the way to g. The general consensus is to opt for the classic black wings, but you can take it a tad higher with a colorful stroke.
