Lipstick shades?are like shoes, you can borrow them but what works for your friend may not work for you and vice-versa. Choosing the right makeup is not easy. It’s ok to not know what you really want to do. But can you imagine choosing your lipstick shade based on your Zodiac Sign? Taken aback by the mere idea? Want to rant about the absurdity of the possibility? Or are you simply curious about what I have to share?
Apparently, if we dig a little deeper and assess our sign’s traits and what’s in transit, those planets are giving us hints here and there about whether now is a good time to dye your hair, or if you should stick to your standard manicure. Interesting isn’t it?
Whether or not you put credence into astrology, reading your horoscope and your friends’ or even your frenemies can be a giggle-filled reprieve from your busy “real” life.
So, Let’s start without further ado, on what lipstick shades would suit your zodiac sign
?
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
A cardinal Fire sign, ruled by the planet Mars – the God of war, Aries is the first sign on the zodiac wheel. You, my friend, have a tendency to initiate things. You are often leaders but can be very impatient. Like fire, You burn passionately and tend to burn those who betray your trust.
” You may think you foolled an an Arien, but they’re merely handing you the rope to hang yourself with”
Your tenacity and passion are romantically intriguing, and horoscopes tend to suggest that they navigate well in the bedroom.
What we suggest:?Like the passionate fiery woman you are, wear some Red and scorch the earth. Ariens tend to love red, so having a bit of your favourite colour in your everyday life is bound to keep you grinning and a small boost to your confidence.Try the Maybelline Color show Ruby Twilight.
Taurus (April 21 – May 21)
Ruled by Venus – the goddess of love and beauty, the earth sign Taurus as a ‘fixed sign’. Rules and order appeal to you, and you enjoy indulging the pleasures of life ? comfort, food, and libations ? sometimes in excess.
“Taureans have an interesting balance of independence and submissiveness in their relationships”
Taureans are thought to be persevering, strong individuals, who can also be quite ?bull-headed?. You can be dogged and determined when you have a goal in mind. Taureans are also quite sensual and, often, self-indulgent ?beasts?.
What we suggest:? As?you prefer to be wearing classics that are often romantic, dabbling in the latest trends may not be your style. You do however love a clear, radiant, down-to-earth look. You could go for?the Lakme 9 to 5 collection’s Toffee nexus.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
“A Gemini will make you see?heaven.?or…..?give you HELL, there is no inbetween”
Cancer (June 22 – July 22)
“Cancerians are mothers at heart, even the men”
What we suggest: Because you will accept nothing but the best and Orange is the ‘scent’ of a Leo, go for an Orange shade – eye catching & bright – much like yourself. My favourite is the?Lakme Absolute Lip Tint Matte Tangerine Touch
Virgo (August 22 – September 23)
Represented by the virgin, shy “lady-in-waiting” naive personality, Virgos are dignified, emotionally rich, and fairly conservative. Ruled by planet Mercury (the messenger of Gods) communication is high on your list. Generally respectable, hard-working individuals who have a love of knowledge and know-how, you can be an annoying neat freak.
“A Virgo will give you the most?truthful answers even if it hurts you”
If you’re a Virgo, odds are good that you’re fairly sophisticated, well-spoken, and maybe even a bit reserved
What we suggest:?L’Oreal Paris Color Riche Matte, Velvet Rose – Almost the colour of you lips, but a pop of colour to it. No drama, just Perfection.?
Libra (September 24 – October 23)
All about harmony and balance, the air sign is represented by the ‘balance scale’. Just like a balance, you weigh and measure everything. Ruled by Venus (the Goddess of love & beauty) and an air sign, You are both feminine and free. You seek equality, harmony, and balance and tend to be sociable, somewhat intellectual souls. You have an almost innocent way about you that makes you very approachable.
“A Libra either doesn’t care at all, or cares too much”
Generally quite eager to cooperate, You spend a lot of your time trying not to rock the boat. You also value feminity and elegance, and you naturally tend to gravitate towards things that are balanced.
What we suggest:?Go for a soft, feminine peachy pink –Maybelline Color Show Matte Lipstick – Pink Power M101
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
You guys are just scary-fascinating, usually the most sensuous of your friends. Ruled by Mars (the God of war) & Pluto (the God of Afterlife & wealth) you tend to vacillate between a sometimes aggressive inner monologue?and a?tranquil exterior.
“Hell hath no fury a scorned scorpian”
Aptly symbolized by a scorpion that can turn fierce and vicious in a moment, you are very intense. You could go for intense colours like burgundy, maroon, or deep plum colours.
What we suggest:?For the intense you, go for intense colours like burgundy, maroon, or deep plum. I suggest Maybelline’s New York Collection?Colour Sensational Creamy Matte Lipcolour in Burgandy Blush or the?Maybelline Super Stay 14 Hr Lipstick – Please Stay Plum
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 22)
Ah! Sags…. I have been surrounded by you guys most of my life. But no matter what you guys do, I just can’t seem to hate you outright. Happy-go-lucky, Cheerful and free is what I picture when I think of the Archer. Ruled by Jupiter (the God of light and sky) – You are known for your independent attitude and are great in social situations. You tend to have an uncanny ability to make others feel welcome and included.
“A Sagittarian woman thrives on her independence, and her fun loving crazy attitude can be infectious”
I suggest an energetic tangerine shade, to keep up with your sunny disposition.
What we suggest: Try the Lakme 9 to 5 Weightless Matte Mousse Lip & Cheek Color – Tangerine Fluff
Capricorn (December 23 – January 20)
Reliable to a fault,?Capricorns are the most level headed of the lot – I should know, My best friend is one. Ruled by Saturn- God of Time (Psst, He ate his children)You are incredibly independent and have a tendency to appear calm. You guys are practically single-minded and aren’t easily deterred from tasks that hold significance for you.
“A Capricorn is never afraid of admitting they’re wrong, although it’s not often they’re wrong”
– I almost never win an argument. **Sighs**
You are usually prone to deep thought and consider your path carefully. Ambitious and practical, go for simple peachy nude for an everyday practical use.
What we suggest:?Lotus Herbals Pure Colors Lip Color, Peach Creme
Aquarius (January 21 – February 19)
Ah! the sign I was waiting for! Hello fellow Aquarians, I don’t need to tell you lovely ladies how fiercely independent, and exquisitely eccentric we are. Ruled by Uranus (the primordial God of Sky) we are forward-looking, we balk?at tradition?and celebrate originality, individuality. We are often thought to be dreamers and rebellious.
“Aquarians hate to be told what they should do or what they cant do”
Although we are ‘water -bearers’, we are an Air sign, and hence ‘free-spirited’. We prefer the wet and glossy lip look, and personally matte aren’t my thing – I never seem to be able to get it right. My suggestion
What we suggest:?Shades of peaceful and soft lipstick nude with a glossy finish. Try the Lakme Absolute Gloss Addict – Bare Beige.
Pisces (February 20 – March 20)
Emotions run high with these fishes. A water sign ruled by Neptune (the God of freshwater and sea) – Pisceans are emotionally driven and are?capable of great depth and introspection. You are often exceptionally intuitive and sensitive to others, and make some of the very dearest friends.
“A pisces woman can make you change the way you view love forever”
With your gifts of compassion and affection, You are usually very easy to be around. Exceptionally artistic and creative, A bit of shimmer from the sea 😉 can keep you happy. Go for?shimmery lip gloss.
What we suggest:?Lakme Absolute Plump and Shine Lip Gloss, Rose Shine.
