Finally Bold® - Lipsticks for Redheads: $26

1. Won’t Wash You Out: Perfectly Nude

Nude lipstick is a must-have for everyone, but it can be hard to find the right shade for redheads. Lots of nude lipsticks are too fark for fair-skinned redheads, or wash you out. Perfectly Nude is just that — the perfect nude shade for redheads. Because it’s a nude, you can pair this shade with any outfit, but a few ways we love to rock it are:

• Business / Work Wear: A nude lip is elegant and understated but still very chic. It won’t clash with any colors you choose to wear, and pairs great with neutrals too.
• Neutral Top + Jeans: Dressed up or down, a neutral-colored top with some denim on the bottom is a staple look. Pair this classic look with a classic lip shade like nude. 
• Cool-Toned Looks: Wearing something more cool-toned? A nude lip is the perfect way to make sure you’re not clashing!

Won't Wash You Out: Perfectly Nude: $26

2. Pinking of You: Perfectly Pink

For some redheads, pink is their nude and it’s almost as versatile. A good pink shade adds color and definition to the lips without feeling overwhelming. It’s almost like your lips — but better. Like a nude lipstick, there really are no limits, but we love to rock Perfectly Pink with:

• Casual Attire: For a pop of color and fun with any outfit, even the casual ones, we love a pink lipstick. It’s very natural and gives just the right amount of definition to the lips.
• Anything Floral: It can be hard to pair florals, especially if they have a lot of color. The one color that seems to complement them all? Pink! Pair Perfectly Pink with a floral top, dress, or skirt.
• Warm-Toned Looks: Another gorgeous way to balance your warm-toned looks is with some pink lipstick. It won’t compete with the warm colors, and won’t wash you out. 

Pinking of You: Perfectly Pink: $26

3. RED-Y For This: Perfectly Red

The lipstick that scares so many redheads is red. You can rock it with confidence1 Red lipstick doesn’t go with every outfit, but it can be dressed up or down for a classic style. 

• Formal Attire: We love a red lip for a formal look, especially when wearing black, or RED! Of course nude and pink work wonders for formal attire too, but red really steals the show. 
• Red + White: The quintessential way to wear red lipstick is with a red and white outfit. This color combo can be dressed up or down, paired with denim, or made elegant and chic. Whatever your style, try out the red and white combo with Perfectly Red.
• Dark Neutrals: Red can go with anything neutral, but a look we really love is pairing a red lip with a darker neutral like black, dark gray, navy blue, and deep earthy tans. 

RED-Y For This: Perfectly Red: $26

Rock it like a Redhead!

This week we’re tackling a question we’ve received a couple of times. Can redheads wear white? Do redheads look good in white? Do redheads look better in black or white? Let’s talk about it! A common misconception is that redheads can’t (or shouldn’t) wear the color white. While, of course, redheads can technically wear anything, this idea comes from the fact that most redheads are fair-skinned. The idea that fair-skinned people shouldn’t wear white is silly. Redheads look amazing in white, and it can really make our red hair pop.

Redheads can wear white because it complements our unique hair color and creates a striking contrast that enhances our overall appearance. Additionally, white clothing can help to brighten a redhead’s complexion and make our natural features stand out. It’s all about finding the right shades and styles of white that work best for each individual redhead’s skin tone and personal style. Let’s talk about how redheads can rock white:

1. Know about the different shades of white and which looks best on you 

The first thing to think about is “pure” white versus other shades of white. While very similar, different whites can look very different against our skin. Often, pure white will actually stand out better against a redhead’s skin, while shades of white like ivory and off-white may be closer to your skin tone and blend in more. That being said, redheads can rock either — it’s all about personal preference. 

2. When in doubt, pair white with other colors 

When styling a white piece of clothing, the colors you pair it with can make a big difference in how it looks. Of course, white is neutral, so it pairs well with every other color. The way you pair white is all about your preferences. Pairing white with other light colors will make you look more light and airy. Pairing white with darker colors will give you more of a contrast. You can also pair white with bright colors to help balance them out. 

Here are some tips based on season:

1. Spring:

• Pair a white blouse with pastel-colored bottoms like light pink or mint green.
• Opt for floral print dresses with white as the base color.
• Layer a white cardigan over a floral dress for cooler spring days.

2. Summer:

• Wear a crisp white sundress with colorful accessories like a statement necklace or bold sandals.
• Combine white shorts with a vibrant top like coral or turquoise.
• Choose lightweight white fabrics like linen or cotton for breathability.

3. Autumn:

• Pair white jeans with warm-toned sweaters such as rust or mustard.
• Add a touch of fall with a plaid scarf or printed cardigan over a white blouse.
• Incorporate white into layered outfits with earthy tones like olive green or burnt orange.

4. Winter:

• Wear a white wool coat over dark-colored layers like a black turtleneck and charcoal pants.
• Combine a white sweater with rich jewel-toned bottoms such as navy or burgundy.
• Accessorize with metallic accents like silver or gold to add warmth to winter whites.

3. What to do when choosing between white + black

When choosing between these two neutrals, black often seems like the safer choice. Let’s think about how wearing a white top will look with your hair and skin versus a black top. A white top will reflect light, white light onto your face. For redheads with fair skin, this may help to brighten the face. Wearing a black top will reflect a darker light up onto the face, which may cause you to look more washed out. That doesn’t mean redheads can’t wear black, they absolutely can! It just means that you should try on that white top, you might be surprised how good it looks. 

So, should redheads wear white? 

Yes! Redheads should wear whatever they want, and whatever makes them comfortable. Our hair color is a huge part of our identity, but it doesn’t have to define everything we do. Wear white if you like it, and if you don’t there are tons of other light and neutral colors to choose from.

Magenta is a rich and bold choice for redheads and that’s why How to be a Redhead co-founders, Adrienne and Stephanie, chose to wear it for their appearance on Shark Tank which aired on February 15, 2024 (Season 15, Episode 14). Adrienne wore this stunning jumpsuit (without the jacket) in a more warm-toned magenta called ‘Fushia’, and Stephanie opted for a similar jumpsuit in a little bit of a cooler-toned magenta called ‘Wild Berry’. 

Wondering how you can rock magenta with your red hair? We’ve got you covered:

Magenta top and basic bottoms

A fantastic way for redheads to rock magenta is by pairing a magenta top with basic bottoms. The magenta will be close your hair and eyes making them pop — while the simple pants or skirt will help to balance the outfit. This look works particularly well with black or denim jeans or other basic black trousers, skirts, or shorts.

Full magenta moment

If you really want to rock the magenta, try a full magenta moment like Adrienne and Stephanie did. Magenta dresses or jumpsuits are perfect for any special occasion. The pink tones will help to accentuate your hair and skin to perfection. We love pairing a full magenta moment with a nude shoe to help give the color its time to shine. 

Wear magenta with other colors

Magenta is beautiful, but what colors do you pair it with other than black, white, and nude? We love magenta paired with jewel tones like emerald green, and other complementary colors like blue and red. The best part about magenta is it comes in lots of different shades and this makes it easier to pair with other colors. We love the really vibrant ones but if you’re not 100% sold on the pop of pink, try going for a darker berry shade and pairing it with colors you love.

Magenta makeup

Magenta and berry are great shades for redheads when it comes to makeup. You can rock the magenta on your lips, eyes, and even your cheeks. The pink tones will really pop, and make you look stunning.

Magenta nails

Another way we absolutely adore magenta? Nails! Berry-colored nails are trendy year-round and are the perfect in-between of pink and red. Berry tones look ultra-flattering on fair skin tones too.

Magenta accessories

Add a pop of pink to any outfit with some magenta accessories. Magenta shoes, bags and earrings will give you the color you’re looking for without feeling overwhelmed. We love adding these magenta pops to neutral outfits! 

Rock it like a Redhead!

1. Visual Discovery: Pinterest is a visual platform where users discover and share ideas through images. This format allows users to easily explore and engage with content that resonates with them visually, making it a fertile ground for identifying emerging trends based on what users are saving and sharing.

2. Search Data: Pinterest’s search functionality provides valuable insights into what users are actively searching for. By analyzing search trends and patterns, Pinterest can identify rising interests and emerging topics before they become mainstream.

3. User Intent: Unlike other social media platforms where users often share personal updates or news articles, Pinterest users typically save content related to their interests, aspirations, and future plans. This focus on future-oriented content makes Pinterest a rich source of data for predicting upcoming trends.

4. Longevity of Content: Pins on Pinterest have a longer lifespan compared to posts on other social media platforms. Pins continue to be discovered and shared over time, allowing Pinterest to track trends over a longer period and identify sustained interest in particular topics.

5. Data Analysis and Machine Learning: Pinterest employs advanced data analysis techniques and machine learning algorithms to analyze user behavior, identify patterns, and make predictions about future trends based on past data. This analytical approach enhances Pinterest’s ability to anticipate shifts in consumer preferences and cultural trends.

Overall, Pinterest’s combination of visual discovery, search data, user intent, content longevity, and data analysis capabilities makes it well-suited for predicting trends across various industries and interests. This means it’s a great source for staying on (and even ahead) of the trends. Recently, Pinterest released its first-ever annual color palette. These are the colors they see trending in 2024. The five colors selected create the 2024 Pinterest Palette. And it’s not limited to one shade — these colors are being embraced in all saturations. 

So, how can redheads rock these 2024 trends? We’ve got you covered:

Desert Orange

Desert Orange is a gorgeous color, and it’s a great way for redheads to rock the color orange. The brown undertones make it subtle but rich. This is a color that will complement your red hair perfectly. Desert orange pairs perfectly with neutrals like black, brown, and shades of white as well as denim. Darker orange colors are usually seen as fall colors, but can also be rocked in the spring and summer months. Rock this color on your nails with a polish like ‘Let it Slide’ from Essie. 

Gummy Pink

Gummy Pink is a gorgeous shade of pink! It falls into the berry family with colors we love like fushia and magenta. Darker pinks look amazing on redheads and really bring out our hair color. Rocking a color like this might overwhelming but it’s really about how you style it. Pair your pink with neutrals and other more muted tones to let it be the star of the show. Rock this color on your nails with a polish like ‘Without a Pout’ from OPI. 

Aqua Blue

Aqua Blue is no surprise. This gorgeous shade looks stunning on redheads in all saturation levels and is super fun for spring and summer. Pair your aqua with neutrals, and other cool-toned colors like pinks and purples for a fun look. Rock this color on your nails with a polish like ‘Drama at La Scala’ from OPI. 

Moss Green

Moss Green is a favorite for redheads and a no-brainer for springtime. All shades of green really bring out the red in our hair and complement our skin. This muted green shade is the perfect way to add a small pop of color or to pair with neutrals for a “nature-inspired” look. Rock this color on your nails with a polish like ‘Precious Cargo-Go!’ from Essie. 

Mocha Brown

Mocha Brown is a lovely brown shade that we love for redheads. From the light to the dark end, these mauve brown colors look beautiful with red hair. Go all out with a monochromatic mocha look, or use it as your neutral base to rock some of the other trending colors. Rock this color on your nails with a polish like ‘Espresso Your Inner Self’ from OPI.

Rock it like a Redhead!

Keep it neutral

The absolute easiest way to rock animal print is by making it neutral. Most animal prints are made up of browns, blacks, and whites which means that they are easy to pair. Wear your animal prints with other pieces that contain those same colors and your animal print will blend in perfectly. This is also a great way to rock animal print if you aren’t sold on making a statement. 

Add a pop of red 

Pops of red make everything better and red goes perfectly with animal print. Adding some red will help to balance the look and focus the eye on all aspects rather than just the animal print. You can also do this with pops of other colors if red isn’t your thing. 

Mix patterns

If you’re feeling bold, try mixing your animal prints with other prints. Stripes, checkers, and plaids all look amazing with animal print. Don’t be afraid to mix your colors either, remember animal print is neutral.

Grunge it up

Adding some “grunge” elements to your animal print outfit is a great way to make it feel more purposeful. Try adding things like leather, Doc Martins, and band tees. You can create a cute, casual yet stylish look and your animal print won’t feel out of place. 

Accessorize 

Maybe animal print is something you’re new to, or maybe you just like a more simple outfit. That’s okay! Try rocking animal print in your accessories. Belts, shoes, and bags are all great statement pieces you can use to add a pop of animal print without committing too much. 

Rock it like a Redhead!

Redheads are unexpected: lean into it

This is why redheads turn heads when they enter a room. We ARE the unexpected red. How do you use this to your advantage? Lots of redheads are told to dress in neutrals, in colors that complement their hair (think: jeweled tones) or even shades that tone down their red hair. But, the truth is our red hair was made to stand out. Instead of trying to tone down your hair, opt for outfits that make your red hair the star of the show. Not sure how to get started? Here are a few ideas: 

• Wearing a visually stark monochromatic look like white or all black
• Wearing all cool tones to let your warm-toned red hair stand out
• Wearing muted shades and letting your red hair be the vibrant point

Lean into the unexpected red lips/nails

Another way redheads can create an unexpected red look is through lips and nails. Red lipstick looks fantastic on redheads, especially when paired with a super simple makeup look that feels natural while enhancing your features. The same goes for red nails.Wear one or both and rock your unexpected pop of red. 

Lean into the unexpected red accessories

Spice up your outfit with some unexpected red accessories. From shoes to jewelry and handbags — an unexpected red piece can elevate your look and tie it all together. Unexpected red looks amazing with neutrals, but also with colorful outfits! 

Rock it like a Redhead!

All About Yellow

Do you know what color is most commonly said to be the hardest to pull off? Yellow. Redheads are often told not to wear yellow because it will clash with their hair and wash them out. Redheads aren’t the only ones who are told to stay away from this color, it’s common for most people to think of yellow as a no-go. Yellow can be a hard color to wear, and sometimes even harder to style, but if you have the confidence and the color knowledge redheads can absolutely wear yellow.

When most people think of yellow, they think of bright school bus yellow, or neon but there are so many different types of yellow you have to think outside the box. The way yellow looks also really depends on the colors it’s paired with. Yellow’s complementary color is purple, which can help to accent yellow and make it pop. For many of our How to Wear series installments, we’ve focused on the “true” version of a color, but for yellow we want to explore all the options. 

Finding the Shade 

Colors come in different shades (hues) and saturations (intensities), and finding the right ones for your red hair is key to loving any color. Yellow can also be more orange-toned, or more green-toned and it can be “true” yellow too. Yellow can also be dark and rich like a jewel tone, or light and airy like a pastel. Darker shades of yellow are often referred to as shades of brown. It can also be every color in between. Below is the saturation of the color. If you don’t like a certain color, try going for a different shade, or even a different saturation of the color. 

If you already know which shade of yellow you like, you’re well on your way. If not, here are a few things to consider. 

1. Your shade of red hair: If your hair is a “true red” you may also want to opt for rich “true” yellow colors. If your hair runs more orange to strawberry blond, you may want to opt for more of an orangey yellow. If your hair is a darker red, or perhaps a faux cherry cola red you may want to opt for more green shades of yellow.
2. Your complexion: Most redheads have fair to medium skin, but redheads can have any complexion. Consider your complexion when it comes to choosing how dark or light you want your yellow to be. Fairer-skinned redheads may want to opt for a darker shade of yellow, while redheads with a more medium skin may choose to go lighter towards the lighter end of the spectrum. Of course, you can go either way, but lighter colors may wash out a lighter complexion. Choose a saturation that contrasts your skin a bit. You can also consider if you are high, medium, or low contrast. 
3. Your undertones: Similarly to the shade of your red hair, you want to consider your undertones. If you have cool undertones, you may want to opt for a more green yellow, and if you have more warm undertones you may want a more orange-toned yellow, and neutral undertones, a more “true” yellow.

Pairing Yellow with Other Colors

We already know purple is yellow’s complementary color, but what other colors go well with yellow? In fashion, there are a couple of colors we consider neutral. This includes black, white, off-white/tan, and denim. So denim isn’t one specific color, but blue jeans go with every color so they are considered a fashion neutral. You can pair any shade of yellow with any of these colors. Monochromatic looks are also a great option. Pairing shades of yellow together can help create a cohesive look that still feels dimensional. 

Other colors that look amazing with yellow include the colors found in yellow’s color family which are shades of orange and shades of green. These are called analogous colors. Since yellow’s complementary color is purple, its secondary complementary colors are blue and red/pink which are found on either side of purple. 

Different shades of yellow will pair better with different colors. For example, if you want to pair yellow with red/pink, opt for a more orange-yellow, and if you want to pair yellow with blue, opt for a more green-yellow. 

Now these rules aren’t hard and fast, but they are a good jumping-off point if you’re trying to create a cohesive look. You can easily find any colors complementary colors by going across the color wheel from it, and you can find the analogous colors or the colors in the same color scheme, on either side of any given color. 

Rock it like a Redhead!
