I have an event coming up and I am wearing a navy/dark blue dress. I have no idea on what kind of makeup I should try out? Any recommendations? I have around NC 43-45 skin. I usually wear red lipsticks as I am not used to pink so would a red lip clash with a blue dress? What color should I use for eyeshadow? Any ideas appreciated
Brown and blue are complimentary and work great together - as someone who’s also worn and loves navy blue formal wear, my go-to look is often a bold blue smoky eye and a nude brown lip, like MAC Velvet Teddy or Whirl.
Then again, I’m an eyes person more than a lip person - if you want to wear the red lip then do the opposite to me i.e have a bold lip and keep the eyes muted and neutral with brown eyeshadow.
I believe a true red lipstick would go well. Just make you keep your eyes very neutral.
