WHAT LIPSTICK SHADE SUITS ME BEST?

At 72, I’ve never found my perfect shade of lipstick. I’m pale with grey hair and grey-green eyes. Any wise words would be appreciated!

I’ve come across so many women who, like you, want the joy of a bright lip, but feel that it wears them. In my experience, women fit into three categories based on their hair, eye and skin tones: cool, medium and warm. From your photo, I’d say you’re in the first group, so I suggest pinky colours or a vibrant bougainvillea. Warm skins suit strong colours such as rust or a tomato red, while those in the medium group can wear shades from both.
