I am a girl with naturally deep red lips. I have pale skin and blonde hair so it doesn't look good. They stand out a lot and its embarrassing. My friends comment on it and I want to know if there is any way to make it a more neutral colour. I have tried putting foundation and concealer on them but it only makes it worse. Anything will help!

Thanks!

Lipstick...

Nothing you can do other than covering it up.

I do have to ask why you think a natural red lip is a bad thing. Your friends are jealous. Most women would kill to have a natural red lip against pale skin. It's a look many women try to achieve with hundreds of dollars of cosmetics. You have it naturally!

Frankly, If I were you, I'd consider myself lucky, and realize that those that comment negatively, aren't friends, but people that are jealous of what you have, that they can't achieve without a lot of makeup.

Interesting. Do you have any proof to back this up? Articles by dermatologists etc. This does sound logical at all.
