7 Tips on Picking the Right Lipstick for Different Lip Shapes ...

**Colors to Try: **Peach, pale pink, light beige, clear
** Colors to Avoid: **Red, dark red, dark purple, any shade of brown

If you have thin lips it's better to avoid dark and bright colors and settle for softer, natural sheer ones. Start with outlining your lips with a lip pencil that's close to the natural color of your lips and then fill them in with light pink or light coral or beige lipgloss. A friend of mine who has thin lips often uses Lip Plumping glosses that make her lips look so much fuller.

• Urban Decay Lipstick in Midnight Cowboy - $22

Colors to Try: Red, soft pink, berry, mauve
** Colors to Avoid:** None

With full lips, you have quite a few options. Try not to buy plumping glosses, and instead apply a small amount of clear gloss to the middle of your top lip for the same affect. I have naturally full lips, and find that I don’t need lip liner, and rose colours look the most amazing!

Your daytime look should be casual, so stick to sheer glosses or light colours, and simple eye makeup. If you are going somewhere special, glam up your daytime look with a bit more color on your lips - the right shades of pink and beige compliment everyone!

Night time is the best time to glam it up, so dig out your browns, pillarbox reds and bright pinks. Remember that you should keep your eyes neutral if you wear a bright lipstick, and put some lipseal on to ensure that your colour lasts the distance. I love to team red with blonde hair, but find many brown colours also look very glamorous. Experiment!

Looking good is important when you’re a teenager, but it can be hard to get it right. To start with, avoid lip liner if you can. Instead, invest in a lipstick that comes with a lip liner, as these are sure to match up. Stick to peach for school days, and pink for casual. Find a colour that suits you, and that you love, and wear it with a smile!

Warm colours will show your youth, so make the most of it! Choose sophisticated golden tones for work and brighter fuchsia for night times. My friends find that mattes and creams look the best, and tend to last longer too. Try topping up the colour with a little glitter for instant sex appeal after work. And don't be worried to try the red sticks, when done right it can really enhance your look. Though it does take a little practice, achieving the perfect red lips is really not too hard.
