Take the plunge with a blue lip
McKay agrees that the blue lip is for “the adventurous spirit,” but explains that no matter what skin tone you have, you can still try it out: Someone with a darker complexion can wear dark blue beautifully as it doesn’t contrast that natural skin tone that much, but it also looks fantastic on a fair person as it does contrast their natural skin tone. McKay recommends a matte dark blue lipstick applied with a lip brush so it appears deliberate and bold.
