What is common between Sonam Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, and Deepika Padukone? No, it’s not their former boyfriend, it’s the new trend of flaunting pale lipsticks! This hot look is making several rounds from recent fashion runways to movies. The look is clean and fresh, and it matches with everything. For this bonafide ‘60s bombshell look, stick to matte finishes. Pale lipsticks make the texture of your lips more prominent, so chapped and peeling lips will stand out when covered by a pale coating. It’s essential to keep your lips moisturized, to carry this trend perfectly.

To choose a pale lipstick, keep your own skin tone in mind. A lip shade you love in the tube may simply not work with your skin. People with fair skin should select pale lipsticks with a hint of pink, while people with darker skin should opt for caramel tones. The basic rule is to stick to pale colors that are only a shade or two away from your normal skin tone. The Revlon Matte Lipstick in Nude Attitude with a matte finish is a perfect fit for olive skin tones, while the Colorbar Pretty Please shade is the best pick for fair skin girls.

Pale lipsticks look fabulous, when paired with dramatic, smoky eye makeup. Since you are eliminating prominence from your lips, you can go wild with the eye color choices. Even if, you apply bright colors in your eye makeup, you won’t look overly “done up. Avoid pastel-colored eye makeup with your pale lipstick. Using pastels on both your eyes and your lips can give you a bland look. In a similar vein, dust your cheeks with bronzer or blush, to give the middle of your face a healthy, robust glow. Thus, follow the celebrity trend and flaunt the pale lipstick look this season.
