Anyone can pull off pink gloss—as long as it’s a flattering undertone. Bubblegum pinks, fuchsias and strawberry-tinted hues pop on cool skin tones, while peachy pinks, bright corals and neons electrify warmer tones. Experiment with different depths according to your skin color too. The lighter or darker the pink is in comparison to your skin, the more your gloss will stand out. Consider these picks for light, medium and dark tones the inspo you need to find your perfect pink.
Bubblegum Pop
A milky pink shade flatters fair skin and complements no-makeup makeup days. Light pinks tend to be more flattering on pale skin than a standard nude, because they mimic the lips’ natural rosiness.
Volume and Shine
Darker pinks, like coral, wine and mauve, enhance a golden glow in medium complexions for a look that’s glam but not overdone. Choose a plumping formula for maximum glossy effect.
Tons of Color Options
There’s nothing more stunning than a bright, daring pink lip gloss set against a dark skin tone. So if you’re looking for a bit more than a nude-colored sheen, opt for a bold hue that’ll turn heads. To tone down a simmering hot pink, or deepen up a too-light shade, simply line your lips with a brown pencil and blend with your gloss.
