My birthday is coming and I'm not sure on what look I should go for with this dress, as I'm not too advanced with doing my own makeup. All suggestions are appreciated!

I think with your skin tone and complexion I would say a pink or a frosted pink it would look so gorgeous! You could also rock a red lip with dark eyes if it was for a night time event.

Maybe foundation, a winged liner and brown eyeshadow and go a little heavy on the blush but not too much. A nude, purple, or brown lip would be cute!

Thanks Megan and Tia I was thinking of a pink look to match, I think dark eyes with a red lip would be too much because I'm going sight seeing throughout the day
I've never seen a nude purple lip shade though, I'm curious 🤔

Tia mentioned nude, purple or a brown lip.
Three different colors ALTHOUGH you can find a mauve type of nude.

Personally, I'd go with winged liner and a nice red lip. It doesn't have to be a super bold red it can be a red that has more brown in it so it isn't so in-your-face. You could try a red gloss or stain too.

So I'm a creep and went through your pictures! You have great skin! You could pull off any look. The look in your picture now is perfection! You could play it up more if you wanted and it would be perfect with that dress. And I'm curious to see what pale purple lips looks like too!

@Tia B. Lol my mistake I read it as "nude purple" @Aurora S. So like a red with a brown undertone then? Do you have any examples I could see?
@Meagan M. Thank you for the compliments, you're definitely not a creep in my book 😄 I think I'll go for the look in my profile, winged liner and all but I'll definitely play it up some more and see what comes of it. Thank you girls 🤗

The left is Viva Glam I and the right is Ruby Woo.
I think a shade like Viva Glam I would be good since it's not a bold true red. It's a little more muted as far as the redness and a bit more wearable.
On my arms they just look red but I'll find a pic with them on the lips

Here's a pic from online.
As you can see, Ruby Woo is more of a bold bright red whereas Viva Glam I is darker and seems a bit brownish.
Diva is also a good color and I think would look really nice on you too without being too bright
