Find your texture

If you think that wine lips are only appropriate for a masquerade party or on stage, then you simply haven’t found your lipstick option. The darker the color, the more transparent the texture should be: try balms, glosses or tints. If you want to tame thick lipstick, then apply it not from a stick, but lightly tap it in with your fingertips, blurring the color along the contour of your lips.

You can choose a gloss or balm of a suitable texture at the Rive Gauche cosmetics store.

Burgundy lipstick shades


There is a huge palette of burgundy lipsticks; the choice of shade depends on the woman’s courage and willingness to experiment. Adherents of a more conservative style should opt for dark burgundy lipstick in a cherry shade. If we are talking about creating an extravagant image, a cherry shade is suitable, which gives the makeup nobility and “expensiveness”. The bravest ones can easily transform into a vamp woman with the help of the darkest shades that are close to black.

Choose a shade to match your skin tone

Why do dark lips make some girls queens and others real witches? It's all about the right shade - the lipstick should suit your skin tone. Wine shades of merlot and burgundy beautifully highlight fair skin, while marsala, terracotta and deep burgundy look better on dark and olive skin.

Even the darkest lipstick will look delicate on the face if it is dominated by red or pink nuances. To avoid mistakes, choose the most natural shades - cherry or wine colors

Although lipstick with a blue tint gives teeth a whitening effect, it suits few people in real life. The cooler the base of the lipstick (purple, blue or black), the more you will look like a goth or a vampire.

Appearance and image

Cherry-colored lipsticks suit many people, even those who choose calmer lip shades. And, even if you think that the lipstick looks too bright and makes you look old, it is better to choose a lipstick with a different texture.

According to texture, cherry lipsticks are divided into translucent, medium density and dense. The densest and most saturated shades are matte. But they require ideal lip shape and delicate facial features, so they are not suitable for all women.

The medium density lipstick has a creamy texture, the density of which can be adjusted. It spreads well over the lips, does not run, and allows you to get both a translucent shade and a bright one.

Transparent lipstick has a gloss-like texture. It shines on the lips, and the color resembles a tint and looks transparent. Such lipstick is available in expensive lines, especially if you use a lip tint - it can withstand a lot of kisses and touches, however, it does not wash off immediately - a special product is required.

Achieve the perfect complexion

Don't forget a little blush so you don't look like a zombie: cherry-colored cheeks go with dark red lipstick, and cool pink blush goes with burgundy-purple lips. In order not to make a mistake with the shade, you can use the same lipstick as blush.

Shay Mitchell, a Canadian actress whom we know from the films “Horrible Ladies” and “Rookie Cops,” increasingly appears at parties and social events with matte blackcurrant lipstick, which, by the way, suits dark-haired and dark-eyed representatives of the fair sex very well.

The dewy, seductive shine of berry shades will be appropriate during the holidays, which we all look forward to. By the way, berry glosses and light burgundy lipsticks are suitable for fair-haired girls, without making them “dolls” or “vulgar ladies.” For the most daring beauties, we suggest trying the “after the kiss” option. This method of applying burgundy lipstick has recently become popular among fashion trendsetters. Its meaning is that lipstick is painted without first applying a contour with a pencil. And after this, the lips are also “slammed” with the fingers. This “naturally uneven contour”, as if only after a kiss, according to famous designers, makes girls very sexy. True, you should still choose shades that are not too dark.

Current application technique


Contour has always been a constant companion to dark lipsticks. This is due to its ability to make lipstick easier to apply on the lips. In addition, with a contour, lip makeup has a completed look, and lipstick, in turn, looks neat. But new fashion trends allow us to deviate from previously defined rules. Today you can give up the pencil. After applying lipstick to your lips, you need to make patting movements along the contour of your lips, while it will have an unclear, blurry silhouette. A state of slight carelessness will give the lips the look they have after a kiss, which is considered the most current trend and adds sexuality to the owner of such makeup. But such an effect will not work, if the burgundy lipstick is too dark, you may end up with a dirty spot on the face, which will create a completely opposite effect. There is a misconception that dark shades of lipstick can add unnecessary drama to the image and even some gloominess. The correct choice of shade and the correct technique for applying the cosmetic will help avoid this. Makeup using burgundy lipstick is reminiscent of the style popular in Hollywood at the beginning of the 20th century. Don't be afraid to experiment!
