My summer favourite lipstick and nail polish for dusky complexion!

Product review of Maybelline Color Show Coral Craze and Lakme's Nine to Five Roseate Motive!

I am dusky and the biggest problem I face when shopping for make-up is to finding the perfect shade of lipstick and nail colour. I agree most stores give you a swatch test for lip colours but honestly it gives me no judgement if it will look good on my lips. I have most often picked up colours which are safe bets and won t look different or bold on my lips. After all spending Rs. 600-700 on a lip colour only to discover that it makes you look tacky is no fun. Here is how you can choose you lip colour better for dark lips.

I would see dusky women wear blends of bright oranges and reds on their lips and look so stylish but never dared to buy such a bold colour. That s about a lipstick and the same applies to nail colours. What s worse is, you never get a tester for nail polish. This means you have to just go by judgement and pick one for yourself. If you don t like it, find a friend or relative who does and pass it on. In such similar exchanges, one dear friend got a beautiful bold pink for herself and asked me to try it on. It looked too bright for dusky skin but she insisted and thank goodness she did. Read: Beauty hacks for the perfect nail polish.
