Lipstick is one of my favorite cosmetics :) Buying a lipstick is often a tedious and confusing task for many women.

We spend hours in the cosmetic stores trying to find the perfect shade by trying on the tester lipsticks. A wrong choice will most certainly kill the buzz of the look. For so many people choosing a lipstick is more trial and error than science.

The choice of lipsticks depends on many factors including

1. The skin tone – The same lipstick shade would not suit fair, medium and darker skinned tones

2. The occasion – Everyday wear requires more subtle shades rather than a blingy red

3. Texture of the lipstick – Lipsticks is available in stains, glosses, mattes etc.They will all go on as a different hue. Hence, it's essential to try out the texture of the lipstick.

To solve this confusion, it’s advisable to go through the basics of choosing the right color.

In this post, I have listed out 5 lipstick shades for fair skin tone women.

First and foremost, we need to determine our natural lip color.

For day to day wear, pick the shade which is slightly darker than your natural lip color
For an evening party or a bold look, go for a darker shade. Most dark shades would work well for a fair skin
