Red lipstick to match skin tone/hair colour?

Q. My hair's kind of like this colour http://www1.cs.columbia.edu/CAVE/projects/separation/images/Hair_Auburn_Global.jpg but less red, and I've pale skin, but I'm not sure what the undertones are, it's kind of like a creamy colour? Hahaha [And pale blue eyes if that's relevant]

Anyway, I want this lipstick, you have to look it up because MAC won't let me link the exact colour, it's called 'Lady Danger', so would this suit? If not, what would?

Thanks. :D


Answer
If you are more orange toned, you should choose a more orangey red lipstick. If you tan easily and turn brown nicely, you are probably orange toned.
For the pink toned, which means that you usually burn quickly out in the sun, you want to choose a deeper bluey red. If you're this tone, like me, I would suggest Dubonnet from Mac. It's perfect for that skin tone.

If you really wanted, you can do a different red than your skin tone suits. But, it won't look as good. Trust me, I struggled with this for a long time before I found the right red and realized that I had been choosing the wrong shade all this time. It will really look awful if you don't pick the proper color for your skin.

Need help choosing new hair color for my skin tone?

I'm looking for a different hair color and I thought something reddish brown would be a nice change. My hair has been black forever. I have a warm skin tone with, what I think are, yellow undertones. Would the color look too weird on me? This is an old photo just for the skin tone, my hair is not short like this anymore.

Look bad? Good? Other hair color suggestions?
Thanks!
nothing opens once you use the links.



Answer
i think that the reddish brown color would look good because you have a warm skin tone. if you would go with cool hair colors, your skin would look washed out. i like the first three of the photos and i don't really like the blonde one. also, i think that your skin tone would look better with the first three hair colors than the models on the box!
