Ten minutes has gone by and you still haven’t made a decision. There's so many shades to choose from...stupid makeup manufacturers. There are lipstick colors to go with every skin tone, every possible outfit and every social situation you may find yourself in. The choices seem overwhelming.
Okay, this is getting rediculous, you’ve got to make up your mind somehow. Here’s our suggestion: The next time you go lipstick shopping, select lipstick colors to match each one of your moods.
Selecting Lipstick Colors To Match Your Mood
Selecting a lipstick color to wear for the day should be similar to selecting your outfit for the day. Think about it. When you wake up in the morning and try to get dressed, you don't just throw on a quick outfit and run out the door. Instead, you look at your options and decide whether you’re in the mood to wear the blue top or the pink top, a skirt or jeans, or a striped suit instead of a dress.Your mood dictates what outfit you finally select. The same should be true about your lipstick. How you’re feeling that day should help determine which lipstick color you wear.
But which lipstick color fits your particular mood? Here is a quick list of lipstick colors and the moods they represent so you can select a lipstick color to match your mood.
Matching Lipstick Colors To Your Mood
 Pink Lipstick Colors – Light pink shades symbolize innocent, soft and gentle. Wear a light pink shade on your lips when you are feeling pretty and girly. If you’re feeling your girl power and want to have some fun, kick things up a notch by wearing a hot pink shade intead.
Purple Lipstick Colors – Purple shades signify mysterious and a little rebellious. Wear a purple shade on your lips when you are feeling unique or when you feel like stepping out of your comfort zone. Purple shades are always cool and vibrant, but never boring.
Orange Lipstick Colors – Orange shades embody sunshine. Wear an orange shade on your lips when you are feeling relaxed, happy or even a little spunky. Since orange is the color of sunshine, wearing an orange shade of lipstick can really give you a lift on gloomy days.
