Per Refinery29, you can skip the traditional fire engine red lipstick and pair your yellow outfit with a dark red lip instead. Global superstar Jennifer Lopez brought her A-game at the 2016 Golden Globes in a show-stopping yellow gown and ruby lipstick. Makeup artist Mary Phillips told Refinery29 why this unconventional color pairing worked so well for Lopez. "A brighter red would've dulled out the color of the dress, and made it look drab," she explained. She also added that her dark red lip meshed well with her skin tone without overpowering her.
If you're worried that dark red makeup will take over your look, you can also opt for a reddish-brown lipstick. Take a page out of fashion guru and actress Priyanka Chopra-Jonas' style book. She rocked a vintage tweed look with reddish-brown lipstick that was equally as glamorous at the opening night for the 2019 Broadway play "Burn This" (pictured above). Her lipstick color is both low-key and stunning.
