Red Lip Theory for Black Women (WOC) Explained + How to find the perfect Red Lip for your skin tone

[@ItsMarilynNoMonroe]

Lisa, I love this style of video! You are very well spoken and relatable.❤ Blue based reds are my all time favorite. They make your teeth look white!

[@lisasykes]

OMG, thank you sooo much! Was trying something new so your feedback means everything! Also, I'm so glad you liked the video! Blue based reds are definitely 🤌🏾!

I always go for a blue-red lipstick.. I think the orange- red are not flattering on my skin! I would love a video on your fav reds! ❤

[@lisasykes]

Thaaank you! I definitely agree, you have to find the right shade that works for you! And definitely working on getting that up soon!

I see the same thing and every video. I don’t even know why the orange red exist. It makes your teeth look yellow, where the blue makes your teeth look white.

[@BaoneTwala]

Great video! I'd love a video on your favourite reds. Red scares me😅 but I'm dipping my toe to hopefully find one I like and that matches my style. I appreciate these kind of videos from people that understand the kind of makeup challenges that apply to me.

Girl, if you got dark circles like me all we looking at is them damn dark circles. To be honest it didn’t work for her either because she had darkness around her eyes too that I feel like was magnified when she put the lipstick on

[@lisasykes]

Dyyyinnng! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@lisasykes]

But Definitely! I understand the concept and can see it working for some. But definitely not us super hyper-pigmented folk! She gives me something other than European though, so that could be why it didn’t for her.

I haven’t been talking about this for years on my channel. I even show people this is what I look like with absolutely no makeup on. And now I just put on red lipstick and then I just make the rest of the video and I’m like but how different do I look now. And I’m not wearing any make up but I look 100 times better just because I put a red lipstick on. People used to ask me why my teeth looks so white and I will tell them it’s because I’m wearing a red lipstick that has blue in it. Don’t choose red lipstick with orange because they’re gonna make your teeth look yellow you want a lipstick that has blue in it and that will always make your teeth look wider, especially on camera. Also, I think you do look better with just a red lip if you weren’t wearing anything. I don’t think you need to put on make up because I love people the way they are naturally. I see the beauty and everything and everyone. But I understand why you would want to wear make up, but you don’t need it. Like if you did just one day wanna go out and put on a red lip or even a hot pink fuchsia lip P 55 by Prada, but make sure there’s blue tone in like vendetta by Pat McGrath both of them then I think you would look stunning . You can even get away with an orange maybe like the orange from Hermes Or metal flame by Tom Ford

Great video and it turns out I have green/olive veins which explains why I love a more brighter pop of red on myself. The Lip Bar “Haute Mess” has had me in a chokehold for the last 2 years!

[@lisasykes]

Thank you and yeeessss, I can totally see that! And Haute Mess is a classic! You bust her out and that choke will be back on and popping!

TLB is the same red i use now. But I love to see more reds from other brands. I used to. wear a red by wet n wild that was bomb. Great video, loving the hair.

[@lisasykes]

Thank you! Reds are sooo timeless! I hate when they just discontinue them like that! 😩
