A beautiful Smile cannot be complete without gorgeous lips. The natural beauty can be enhanced manifolds by the makeup done right.

Almost anyone can rock the bright and beautiful lips and this primarily depends on the comfort and confidence level of the person donning the look. But if you are particularly interested in augmenting the brightness of your smile, then it is more about the undertones rather than the colour itself.  

The cooler and bluer undertones assist the Teeth to look whiter and brighter and therefore the shades like mauves, reds and taupes are mostly smile-whitening shades. Just make sure that the undertones are not towards the warmer sides.

If you are unable to still guess which colours you should choose, here are some of the shades that can help you make the choice. Just take a look.

Reds – Instead of the Orange-y Reds, Pick the Blue-based Ones–

The Ruby-Woo is one of the most popular cult favourites among the women for a reason. The scarlet hue looks great and pleasing for most of the skin tones. Added to that, it also contains the perfectly proportioned blue base.

Therefore, it is the lipstick that is bound to make your smile brighter. This happens because of pure logic. Yellow/orange and blue are on the opposite sides of each other on the colour wheel. Therefore, the blue tones tend to cancel out the yellow or orange tones when posed against each other.

Hence lipsticks formulated with a blue base can cancel out any yellow or orange tone on the teeth. Therefore, the yellow and orange bases tend to bring the similar colour hues from the smile.The Ruby-Woo is one of the most popular cult favourites among the women for a reason.

Nudes – Shun the Brown and Peachy Nudes

The nude lips are always most coveted, and it happens to be the perfect shade for about any and every occasion. You can pair it with smoky eyes or can wear it on a day-to-day basis. But in order to make the most of the nudes and make your smile bright, you should stay away from the brown or the peachy nudes.

They can make the teeth look stained when you smile. Instead you should go for the pinky nudes. You should go for lipsticks with moisturising effect. You should understand that the lighter shades of lipstick can make the lips look dry in this case.

Pink – Go for the Bluer Undertones

The rules for pinks are actually more or less similar to reds. You should stay away from the orange shades and opt for the berry hued and softer pinks. In this regard, the berry hues are said to be the most coveted choice.

This is because the berries are usually towards the purplish or pinky reds while the blue tones are much stronger. This one does wonders for the brighter smile irrespective of whether you choose a deep plum or light raspberry. The slight glossy formulas also amp up the grin’s wattage as opposed to the matted counterpart.

Go Purple – Choose Something Really Dark and Purplish -

A darker purplish shade is essentially for darker skin tones and instantly adds a cooler elegance for any look. Added to that, it also brightens the teeth and the purplish shade makes the teeth look whiter. You can choose something really dark and deep or something of a purplish hue.

This will make the ivories look as white as possible. Both the berry hues and the purple shades offer the double whammy of forming a sharp contrast with the teeth and being blue-based which both work towards creating a dazzling smile.

Things to Avoid

In order to don a gorgeous smile, here are some of the few colours to avoid. Just take a look

Neons

Your skin can look darker when you are trying on neon coloured clothes and nail varnish. It works in the same way with teeth. So if you wear a neon glow shade on the lips, your teeth will start looking brownish.

Frosted Shimmer

Though a little bit of shine is great but excessive shine can highlight the fine lines around the mouth. So if you choose any colour that is icy, it can make the teeth duller and the lips whiter.

Matte Lips

The matte lips offer an illusion of dry lips. That way your teeth will have no shine to bounce off.

Browns

If you have got the brown tones on the teeth which is a common side-effect of ageing then the brown tones are not a wise choice for you as they get further highlighted. The brown shades are responsible for bringing out the yellowish tinge on the teeth.

The above are some of the lipstick colours that make your teeth whiter and look gorgeous. Even after thorough and daily teeth cleaning and going for professional teeth whitening treatments, you should be careful in choosing the lip shade that you wear as just a wrong choice can ruin the brightest smile. Therefore, by choosing the right shade of lip colour you will be able to flaunt a million-dollar smile with beautiful lips without any issue.
