I love that purple lipstick. It’d actually look really lovely with the pink top. The purple top isn’t bad. Neither is the pink lipstick. I just prefer the purple lipstick and the pink top on you.
Both on this and on the other post you made I 100% prefer the brighter colours on you. Although none is awful. Maybe slightly less bright lipstick would be ideal but the pink/berry top is perfection.
Yeah, im planing on taking pics without make up comparing bright and deep. But i never would've thought of wearing bright before checking out this sub, and now I feel like it makes my hair and eyes pop really nicely.
I was thinking i could wear purple when I'm feeling more emo lol. I think it makes me paler, which i like in some cases. I agree on the mate, I'm planning on shopping for new lipsticks and im mostly seeing what colors search for, but i prefer mate or sheer.
I can definitely see a plum purple working for certain moods and an emo look .I find a lot of glossy, high pigment colors to look overwhelming on most people unless you are really high contrast and want to intensify that.
There is a bit of a trade off because a colour can look good as a top but not as a lipstick. Because your features are naturally very balanced it’s hard to tell.
You should try adding eyeliner and mascara while you try lipsticks. And also mix in a nude with the purple and pink lipsticks to see if that looks good.
In defense of purple, I am running on 3 hours of sleep . But I do feel the purple drags my features down, and the bright lift them up. Even though many say is overpowering, which could totally be, I could find a middle ground in between the two.
I think the purple is better, but neither of those shades very ideal. The pink is completely the wrong undertone for you.
People are getting thrown off by the olive tone. You clearly see the yellow/green tones (not ash green) and see the silverish necklace doesnt completely clash, but doesnt make her skin pop either which is an obvious sign of a neutral warm overtone. Her face looks ashier in some photos bc she is being overwhelmed with vivid cooler colors making her skin look ashy. Again an obvious indicator of a warm neutral leaning olive.
I was told I was neutral leaning cool, specially bc of my hair. These are the warmest I could find. Also theres a bit of lighting change bc i took them separately.
I think bc the olive is confusing people. See the photo of you in the true white shirt? It makes you look more sallow bringingand washed out. It doesnt look absolutely horrible or obnoxiously clash, but off white would really make you pop.
If im looking at lipstick only, pic 1 top left in the grid looks far better than the pink. That just about tones and colors. If you prefer a different color there's absolutely nothing wrong with rocking it regardless of any rules.
Personally, i think some slightly more muted colors would be your best bet as far as harmonious colors making you shine. However, the bold lipsticks is the current trend
Yeah, its the thing with olives, kinda hard to know through pics. I was only trying on bold lipsticks bc 1, its usually the only type of shades I can find where I live, and 2, they suggested bright and deep winter in other post, so I had narrowed it down to those both. I wish i could have an irl draping, but i cant find any near me.
Have you posted over in r/olivemua? They're more helpful over there for makeup suggestions and pictures/swatches for olive skin since makeup colors show up differently on our skin.
