Step 3

Steps one and two should tell you your season. To confirm, try on the appropriate lipstick and blush colors below and see if they look harmonious with your coloring. If you are not sure, ask one or two friends. If you don’t wear makeup, I suggest you go to a department store and try on the lip colors anyway, even if you don’t plan to wear makeup. The sales person might help you tell which shades look most flattering. Use the same color guidelines for lip gloss.

When trying on makeup colors, wear a white blouse so your eye is not influenced by the color you are wearing. Do not wear any foundation for this test. It is important to see your natural skin tone.
