About This Quiz

There are so many shades of lipstick out there that it can be hard to know what really suits you. In fact, even within one single color things can get tricky. Sure, you might like red lipstick, but will a blue-red, orange-red, blackened red, pinky red, plummy red, brownish red, brick red or something else entirely suit you best? Skin tones and undertones also make it tricky. While two people might have medium skin tones, depending on their individual undertones, the same shade of red might look amazing on one and not so great on the other. While some shades are more all-embracing than others, like classic pinup blue reds, that doesn't mean that they suit everyone's tastes!  

So, answer these questions and see if we can help you cut through millions and millions of lipstick shades and zero in on the color that will match your inner beauty and make you feel like a million bucks! Many of us have a weakness for lipsticks and other lip products, but which one is the perfect match for your inner beauty as well as your outer beauty? Put us to the test and see if we can get it right!
