Finding Your Perfect Lip Gloss Shade

Deciding on the right lip gloss shade can be tricky, but don’t fret! We’ve broken down everything you need to know to pick the perfect colour for your unique and radiant skin, inspired by the iconic Cardi B and her favourite Duck Plump shades. Ready to enhance your pout? Let’s explore and find your ideal lip colour!

Understanding Your Skin Tone

Identifying your skin tone involves more than just assessing the surface colour. It also includes understanding the underlying warm, cool, or neutral tones. Do you see pink, yellow, or blue undertones? These nuances are crucial in selecting the right lip gloss shade that complements your unique skin beautifully.

Examine your veins to determine your skin’s undertones. Greenish veins usually suggest warm undertones, whereas purple-blue veins indicate cool undertones. The type of jewelry that suits you best can also be a tell-tale sign of your skin's undertone.

Still unsure? You might have a neutral undertone like Cardi B, who has a balanced mix of yellow and pink. If you find similarities with her, our Duck Plump recommendations for medium skin tones might be your perfect match.

How to Choose a Lip Colour for Your Undertone

Your skin tone might fluctuate with seasonal changes in Canada, but your undertone is your consistent guide to selecting the most flattering lip gloss shade.

Best Lip Colours for Cool Skin Tones

If you notice blue, red, or pink hints in your skin, you have cool undertones. Canadian beauties with these undertones should look for lip glosses in soft pink, berry, and wine shades. Frosty shades like silver and lavender also complement cool undertones well. However, shades with golden or orange tones might not harmonize with your skin, so it’s better to opt for rose, berry, pink, and purple shades.

Ideal Lip Shades for Warm Undertones

For those with warm undertones, characterized by gold, yellow, or peach hues, select lip glosses that will accentuate your skin’s natural glow. In the Canadian context, warm undertones are beautifully enhanced with peachy pinks, golden nudes, sheer corals, oranges, and warm browns.
