09/07/2021
Would you like to highlight the whiteness of your teeth? Using the right lipstick can be key when it comes to showing off white or yellow teeth. Did you know that there are colors that make your smile look shinier? Then keep on reading…
Yes, yes, you read right. There are colors which can make your smile look whiter and shinier, creating a contrast with any skin tone.
Red
Choosing shades with a blue base, like dark red, will give your teeth the optical illusion of instant shine. This happens because blue and yellow are together on the circle, blue tones tend to dilute orange or yellow when they come together and vice versa. Lipsticks with a blue base help to hide orange and yellow colored teeth. To get the best results we recommend our fantastic Long Lasting Lipstick True-Red. You’ll look amazing!
Pinks
Pink tones can be a great help for hiding yellow teeth. So why is that? Because the dark tones contained in pink are also blue. That said, dark pink works best like our Long Lasting Lipstick PInk Flamingo. Avoid pale or pearly tones which will have the opposite effect.
Mauve and purple
Dark purple is especially flattering on dark skin and adds a touch of elegance to any look. Apart, of course, from making your teeth shine brighter. Your best option is to go for colors that are darker than your skin tone such as Long Lasting Lipstick Burgundy.
Nude
This color, apart from brightening up your teeth, will give your lips added volume, especially if it has a touch of shine, or you can add some gloss on top.
Tones to avoid
Orange tones can make your teeth look yellow. This happens because the light reflection produced by orange or coral on our teeth becomes diffused with natural atmospheric light resulting in a semi-yellow light that increases that color on our teeth.
