Ever bought a gorgeous lipstick shade, only to realize it doesn’t quite work on you? You’re not alone. The secret to finding your perfect lip color lies in understanding your skin undertone—and once you’ve nailed that, every shade you choose will enhance your natural beauty like magic.
Let’s break it down and help you find your signature lip shades—with a little help from Simply Nam’s skin-loving, long-wear lip products.
🔍 Step 1: Identify Your Undertone
Your undertone is the subtle hue beneath the surface of your skin. It’s not about whether you’re fair, medium, or deep—it’s about whether your skin has warm, cool, or neutral tones.
✋ Quick ways to check your undertone:
- Vein Test: If your veins look greenish, you’re warm-toned. If they look bluish or purple, you’re cool-toned. Can’t tell? You might be neutral.
- Jewelry Test: Gold jewelry flatters warm undertones, while silver looks better on cool undertones.
- Sun Reaction: If you tan easily, you’re likely warm; if you burn, you may lean cool.
💄 Lip Colors for Every Undertone
🌞 Warm Undertones
Go for shades with peach, orange, or brick-red bases.
Try:
- Coral
- Warm nude
- Terracotta
- Burnt orange
Recommended: The Simply Nam Velvet Cream Matte Liquid Lipstick in Chai Latte is a beautiful warm-toned nude that enhances golden or olive undertones perfectly.
❄️ Cool Undertones
Look for shades with blue or purple undertones.
