Try lipsticks with warm undertones like peach, coral, pink, etc. that will bring warmth to your face and help it look dimensional. If you want a dark look, try lipsticks with plum and warm purple undertones. I love Estée lauder's Black Cherry. (A warm berry with purple/red tones)

Shop at a local department store counter or ulta so you can try out different colors and shades. I agree with the plum and berry suggestion. I would be careful with peach and corals...they can still look great on your gorgeous complexion but some tend to make the rest of the face too pale or grayish.

You're right about the pale thing.I've tried peachy lipsticks and it washed out my skin tone. Maybe I picked the wrong ones.But I'm going to try and find one that suits me.Thanks.@ Minita

Try peach or corals and personally I think Orgasm by NARS would look beautiful with your skin tone :)

Well you picked a good, affordable brand to start with for lipsticks. Minita's right - go somewhere that allows you to try colors on, I did that when I first started wearing lipstick and then after buying a couple of expensive ones that I knew I loved on me I went for some drugstore brands...my favorite are Rimmel, L'Oreal, and Maybelline. If you want to try some colors out but aren't quite ready to commit to a ton of pigment try L'Oreal Color Riche Caresse Lipsticks, Revlon Lip Butters, and Maybelline Color Whisper are good places to start! PS > you have gorgeous skin so no need to wear a ton of makeup so late booming was the way to go! ;)
