Get The Look: We Cannot Get Over Priyanka’s Perfect Red Pout!
Priyanka Chopra has been on top of our #GirlCrush list for a long time now, and for good reason — not only is she taking over Bollywood, the stunning diva has also found a way to prance into the international style whirlwind. Recently spotted twirling at the Emmy Awards 2016 in a scarlet red Jason Wu gown, Piggy Chops did not fail to impress us, yet again. The outfit, the hair, and the makeup, everything was on point with this Quantico star.
If there is one thing I love about PC, it has to be her gorgeous smile, and boy did she wear that pretty at the award ceremony. The focus of her entire look was the matte red lip, which matched her flowy gown to the T — keeping the rest of her face and eyes at minimal. The classic red pout is one you can’t go wrong with — what you can go wrong wit is the perfect fiery shade to suit your skin tone. To avoid looking too washed out or too jarring, we’ve broken down the different shades of red you can wear in order to achieve the perfect pout based on your complexion and undertones.
NOTE: If you have a cool undertone, look for a rich blue-based red, whilst avoiding anything that is pink-based. If you have warm undertones go for an orange-based red and go glossy, so that the vibrant colour pops. Neutrals are free to go crazy and need not worry, as your undertones are adaptable enough to complement any colour.
FAIR: IF YOU ARE A BEIGE
Look out for: classic reds with coral, cranberry, cherry, and berry hues.
MEDIUM: IF OLIVE IS A BETTER FIT
Look out for: reddish browns and brick browns.
TAN: IF YOU FEEL LIKE A CARAMEL
Look out for: matte shades of red with a touch of brown and orange, or satin-glossy shades of wine red, berry, and bright red.
DARK: ALMOND IS MORE YOUR THING
Look out for: Wine red, burgundy, and deeper shades of cranberry and red.
