Tips for choosing the perfect red lip for your big day
Choose the perfect shade

Make sure that the red lips on the wedding day complement both your skin tone and your dress as well. Choosing the perfect red lipstick shade for your big day will compliment your entire look.
Prep the lips
Lips have extremely sensitive skin; it is necessary to exfoliate and moisturize the skin. Chapped lips are going to spoil the entire look that you are trying to achieve. Use a good lip scrub and apply a thick layer of lip mask or balm. After keeping the lip balm for 10 minutes, wipe it off, and your lips are soft and ready for lipstick application.
Keep the attire simple
Want to pull off red lips? With red lips on your wedding day keep the rest of the outfit and makeup as simple and pristine as possible.
