Lipstick just isn't what it used to be and that's a good thing.
Lipstick just isn't what it used to be and that's a good thing. A couple of decades ago, reds, pinks, and neutrals were the only acceptable lip hues, unless you were heading for a club.
Though metallic lipsticks were typically left to supermodels or only seen on the runway or big screen, they've become easier for the average person to get (via Steal Her Style). No longer are unusual colors difficult to find. Now you can find just about any shade online quickly and usually at a decent price if you search around a bit.
Black and green lipstick, while certainly bold options, can signal a goth look and doesn't have the most glamorous appeal. Purple lipstick might be the perfect retro choice and is a cut above the traditional colors.
However, sometimes you want a color that is both intriguing and chic, something you can wear in the daytime to work or lunch and look appealingly subtle or add a little more for nightwear to give off a high fashion style.
Don't be afraid to try silver lipstick
Often it's a faulty mindset that prevents us from trying new things, but that's something that can easily be broken.
Writer Alex Ronan was up for the challenge of donning silver lipstick one night and purchased it thinking it would be a one-and-done situation. She wrote her story for In the Gloss and says it was not only affordable but easy. Ronan purchased a silver lipstick for $1.49 and intended to use it solely for an experiment.
In the end, she liked it so much that she shared that she wears it on the regular now, and now just for late-night events. "No, I'm not going to an excessive amount of costume parties. I've never even been to a rave," writes Ronan. "Instead, I swipe it on to get a drink on a Tuesday night at the bar."
As the old saying goes, you never know until you try it.
You can use silver lipstick on a budget
You might think that anything that's typically reserved for celebrities and models is pricey, but metallic lipstick is actually quite affordable.
If you don't want to invest in metallic lip shades and would just like to see how they look on you, your best bet might be to visit a department store and ask for a free trial. They may try to rope you into a full face-free demo, but they also may let you try on just the lipstick.
A professional department store make-up artist can also help you select a shade that matches your skin tone, and that can make all the difference. Read More...
