One of the big trends for Fall makeup is
red lipstick. Always a classic and sexy look. But how do you choose the correct shade of red? I recently had the opportunity to check in with
Tim Quinn, Giorgio Armani Beauty's Celebrity Makeup Artist and National Artistic Director, for his tips on how to choose the right shade of lipstick, as well as address other makeup challenges.
Beauty411: Many women would love to wear red
lipstick, but selecting the right shade can be intimidating (I know it is for me!).
In general, what are your tips for choosing the right shade of red
lipstick? Is there a certain way to apply it for maximum coverage or stay
power?
TQ: If you are a novice,
try a sheer red for a less dramatic look. For the fall trend, try a velvety red
for fuller coverage. The most universal red is one with a bluer tone. The red
with more orange in it is more suitable for someone with a golden complexion;
it is not good for fair skin. The berry red is fairly universal – it’s
a great Autumn alternative to red. I recommend applying a bit of gloss over it.
For maximum cover and staying power, I advise applying a lip pencil similar to
the natural color of the lip with the lipstick applied on top. Finish off the
look by applying a bit of concealer, like our High Precision Retouch, around
the lip to help prevent bleeding.

Makeup Artist Joanna Schlip was
inspired by Christina’s dramatic, sweeping gown when creating her makeup
look for the 61st Primetime Emmy's. The vintage glamour of Christina's navy dress by Basil Soda called for simple makeup that
still made a statement. With her hair pulled back in a chic chignon, Joanna was
able to play up Christina’s eyes with a sexy retro smolder, while keeping
her skin fresh and lips softly pink.
It seemed like the smokey eye/nude lip was everywhere on the red carpet last night. Joanna shares her tips on how we can recreate this look at home:
- Skincare: To create a
radiant glow, Joanna cleansed with Clarins Water Comfort One
Step Cleanser. She then applied Clarins
Multi-Active Day moisturizer, followed with Clarins Beauty Flash Balm for smooth, hydrated, radiant skin.
- Face: Since
Christina has naturally beautiful skin, Joanna kept her face mostly bare with a
light wash of Clarins True Radiance Foundation. She finished
with a dusting of Clarins Loose Powder in
Translucent.
