7. Plum Shadows

Finally ladies, the last makeup tip for redheads that we’re going to talk about is plum shadows. Plum looks great with any eye color, but these colors also look great with red hair – give it a try!

I personally highly recommended Dior Garden Edition Couture Colour Eyeshadow Palette (Buy it on Amazon)

The legendary 5 Couleurs palette is reinvented as a charming collector’s edition, with a rose-embossed palette. The two seductive color harmonies of this Garden edition are the object of everyone’s desires. The Garden Roses’ harmony creates a fever of tender pinks, parma violet and silver, accentuated by a devastating purple.

6. Black Mascara

There is always a bit of argument whether or not black mascara goes with red hair, but I think that if you are going for a dramatic look or if you are looking to add a bit of flare to your eyes, black mascara works great! This makeup tip for redheads is all about personal preference!

I personally highly recommended Lancome Hypnose Custom Volume Mascara (Buy it on Amazon)

Dare to go up to 6 times the volume. With each stroke, the patented powerful brush intensifies lashes from root to tip. Exclusive, fluid Soft Sculpt formula, enriched with Vitamin B5, wraps lashes one luxurious layer at a time without smearing, smudging or clumping.

5. Cat Eyes

When I was a redhead, one of my favorite makeup tips for redheads was the cat eye eyeliner trick! I don’t know why exactly, but cat eyes look fantastic with red hair – just look at Emma Stone! When she was a redhead, she looked fantastic in a classic cat eye!

I personally highly recommended Clinique Eye Liner Gel (Buy it on Amazon)

A lot of eyeliner gel gets dry very easily, no matter how hard you tried to avoid it. Clinique eye liner gel never dried out. And it also comes with the little eyeliner brush in the box. Long lasting wearing and won’t give you smudges. Highly recommended makeup item!

4. Tinted Moisturizer

See? Tinted moisturizer is actually one of the greatest makeup tips for redheads because it is so light but it still offers up the coverage that you are looking for. If you are a natural redhead, tinted moisturizer can even work to cover up your freckles if you wanted!

I personally highly recommended NARS Tinted Moisturizer (Buy it on Amazon)

Your skin almost bare, but better. Infused with lush, naturally derived botanicals and ingredients, pure radiant tinted moisturizer SPF 30/PA+++ immediately helps thirsty skin feel hydrated. This advanced, oil-free formula provides a translucent veil of color and sun protection while helping to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and dark spots in just four weeks.

3. Avoid Heavy Foundation

Always ladies, avoid any and all heavy foundation. This makeup tip for redheads can actually apply to any and all pale skinned girls – you don’t want to ever weigh your skin down with heavy foundation. Just some tinted moisturizer or even some light and airy foundation will work best!

I personally highly recommended Lancome Teint Miracle Buff 4 C Makeup Foundations (Buy it on Amazon)

With Aura-Inside technology, Lancome invents its 1st foundation that recreates the true natural light of perfect skin. Its unique weightless texture provides perfect buildable coverage with a bare sensation. Instantly, complexion appears lit-from-within, visibly flawless.

2. Light Concealer Under Your Eyes

Typically, if you are a natural redhead, you’ve got light toned skin, which means that you do not have to weigh it down with a lot of makeup. One makeup tip for redheads that a lot of people don’t know is to use just a light concealer under your eyes, just to get rid of some of the baggage there and really brighten up your whole face!

I personally highly recommended NARS Concealer Stick – Color Vanilla (Buy it on Amazon)

Brilliantly obscures imperfections and dark spots with a creamy, vitamin-rich formula that nourishes the skin for all-day wear. Crease-proof and easily blendable for a flawless finish.
