What is the best lipstick shade to pair with a smokey eye look?

A peachy nude. Lovely.What is the best lipstick shade to pair with a smokey eye look?
I think it depends on your skin color and how smokey the smokey eye is. If it's a really dark, really dramatic one, then go for a more nude or slightly pink-tinged lip. If not, maybe a little more color.





For me, I would choose a deep blue-tinged red (for the evening), or a light cranberry shade (for everyday). I like Bath and Body Works 'Cranberry Cocktail' Liplicious stuff.





Pale skin with dark hair here, btw.What is the best lipstick shade to pair with a smokey eye look?
Most professional make-up artists will recommend that you either go dramatic on the eyes or the lips, not both. Both may look good in a music video but people don't walk around like that in real life for a reason.





So... for a smoky eye, go for a great nude or light pink gloss. They will make your lips look full and shiny without taking away from your eyes. Because after all, your smoky eyes should be the focus, right?! :)
super pale pink or a light peachy color. if you go for anything dark or bright, it'll look like you have too much makeup on.


for inspiration, look at the victorias secret models. they often have smokey eyes with nude, subdued lips.






a lite lipstick because heres the trick when you have dark eyes go lite when you have lite eyes go for dark lipstick
You shouldn't focus on both eyes and lips so for smokey eye pair with a lighter colored lipstick shade.
Contrast heavy eye make-up with pale pink or naked lips.
a nude gloss! like a champagne color or something. something light and not too bright.
Nude-you wouldn't want to overpower the eyes.
Go With Clear or Pale Pink Lipgloss so it won't look over done.
