Lipstick for Brunettes

Brunettes look fabulous in all sorts of lipstick shades, from dreamy, rosy pinks to seductive, statement reds. When I’m working with brunette beauties, I like to reach for rich, nuanced lipstick colours like berries, wines and mauves that look impactful alongside the glossy sheen of brown hair. Discover your new signature shade below – it’ll look flawless with your beautiful, brown locks!

    PILLOW TALK MEDIUM – MATTE REVOLUTION

    Makeup artists, celebrities and beauty lovers everywhere are talking about my Pillow Talk collection, darlings – it’s full of makeup secrets in everyone’s perfect shade!

    STONED ROSE – K.I.S.S.I.N.G

    One of my favourite ways to brighten up a makeup look for brunettes is by swiping on my Stoned Rose K.I.S.S.I.N.G lipstick. Stoned Rose is a glowing coral shade of my moisturising, satin-shine lipstick formula, giving the lips a wave of beachy rose-pink. This flattering shade is more vibrant than a nude and more understated than a statement red or pink, meeting in the middle to give brunettes a tempting coral pop that lifts and enlivens any makeup look. Pair Stoned Rose with my Hot Gossip Lip Cheat to get the pink lipstick look on every brunette’s lips!
