HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT RED LIPSTICK | ALI ANDREEA

PLEASE READ:

I’m not gonna lie, I have watched this video probably 20 times and I’m not sure this is very understandable for everybody. I talk slower than usual ( if that could have been possible!) and I was very much affraid I’m gonna lose you throughout the video so I’ve decided to clear some things in here and make it easier.

There are no rules in makeup. Period.
BUT fair skin tone with red undertone won’t look the best with a very warm tone red, it’ll make your teeth look yellow.
No matter your skin tone is, if your UNDERTONE is warm or olive you WILL look amazing with warm , orangy reds.
Cooler tone reds are amazing for most skin undertones. It’ll make your TEETH look whiter and even if they work amazing with cool skin undertone, it would look damn good with warmer skin undertones too.
Keep in mind a few things when you apply red lipstick:
- always even out your skin tone ( if you have pigmentation spots, redness etc)
- let the rest of your makeup breath, don’t apply too much on the eyes or skin, else it’ll look cheap
- blur the lip line using a q-tip for a soft daytime look
- sharpen that lip line for a more evening look
- matte liquid lipsticks go great for a cocktail for evening look
- classic red lipstick look are perfect during the day
- exfoliate your lips once a week or whenever it’s necessary, you don’t need a fancy product for that
- wear lipstick with confidence, it will make people stare

I am a 50+ woman who used to love playing with makeup in my 20’s, but frankly had stopped wearing much besides concealer when not getting ready for something special. You have inspired me to play at being girly again and that makeup is empowering. I’m now learning what to do with a 50 year old face that has wrinkles, so I appreciate your insight. I’m happy to say I bought the Sephora 01 Red Lipstick tonight and can’t wait to wear it with my favorite white top for a date with my husband tomorrow! 💄 Merci Beaucoup!! 😘

They say "when in doubt wear red" and I believe it's 100% correct! Plz do a French look tutorial. I think the French minimalism and freshness are amazing! 😘😘😘

When I was 22 I got a red lipstick as a gift from an older friend. She observed that I only used nude or beige lipstick. Since that first red (a very bright pure red), this color never left my vanity. I use red almost everyday for work. Pure red is my vibe, but I truly can pull off any red because I feel confident with bright lips.

I’m over 50 now. The Chanel reds that I have & stopped wearing, I now wear by first applying a lip balm, let it absorb & then blot any excess off. I then apply the red from the bullet or with a brush. It’s a bit more sheer & easier to wear. Thanks Andrea, because it’s you that made me revisit my reds!!

I’ve been wearing red lipstick ever since I was 16 and I will always wear it!! Always chic. I love it and wish more women would feel more comfortable wearing it too!

I've started to wear red lipstick probably 11-12 years ago when I was just a teenager. Deeply inspired by Dita von Teese look I decided to try it on myself. Now it's my signature look and I absolutely adore red lipsticks. They're a majority in my makeup collection and I use to wear red lips every day. I think it's sooo chic and gives me +100 points to self confidence.

"all women look good in red lipstick": automatically boosts the confidence 💪☺

Great job, Andrea, thank you! Actually, the “how to choose the right nude” would be perfect as well.

[rachelgoldsmith]

Perfect timing. I decided to go in search of my perfect red lipstick this weekend as a birthday present to myself. Thank you.

[elinorbaker]

Thanks for this video! I want to see the perfect nude lipstick because I always have issues for my olive undertone.

You make great content, but your outtakes or vlogs that show your real personality keeps me coming back.

Dear Andreea, thank you: always well explained, clear and professional. And the written additional text is interesting and useful. And, girl, you are neither speaking to slow, nor loosing our attention, be sure! Love to you and Montanescu from Rome/Italy

[monicahowse]

I just found your channel a few days ago and I love it! You have such a sweet personality. It’s like spending time with a sister or good friend.

[TheMeliss]

The lipsticks were great but honestly, your grumpy kitty cameo made my day!!

[B.Champagne]

The By Terry sold me!! Just bought it. Thank you for this!❤

[Laceyann]

I have always been scared to wear red lipstick, always felt like everyone was staring at me but I recently decided I want one 😆 now I'm on the quest to find one. I love your videos, they are so informative and helpful. Other you tubers just put their makeup on and don't actually give the helpful tips you do and explanations. Thank you from Australia 🤩

[emilyscottbanks]

Thank you so much for this! I have pale olive (i.e. neutral leaning slightly warm) and have been very confused about why I prefer different tones of red at different times of year. Summer or warmer months, I love warm reds-orangey reds; but when the weather cools (and my skin lightens, maybe?) they don't work so well anymore, and I lean to more neutral or vampy or at the warmest - brick tones. This was super-helpful!

Thank you Andreea for a very informative video. Frankly I found you like less than 10 days ago. Watched as many videos as possible. As a result I bought the
1) Laura Mercier translucent loose powder
2) Laura Mercier lip liner in grapefruit
3) Too Faced better than sex mascara
4) MAC setting spray
All arrived this morning so I tried them out. Wow I’m really impressed that my foundation was not cakey and my makeup stayed on easily the 8 hours I was out. Yesterday I was only out for dinner for 3 hours and my foundation was already cakey. So thank you so much for all the very good recommendations.

Andreea, thank you for this tutorial! I was in the middle of a conversation with my husband when I received the notification with the tutorial. He couldn't finished his speech because I was all "Oh, shut up. Andreea put a new tutorial on YouTube" Even my husband knows about you!!! 🤗😘

[iwillstom]

I am definitely going to pull out the few reds I have in my collection again. They get shoved to the back because most of the time I see them as more work than a neutral color I don’t have to think about.
