Discover The Prettiest Cherry Cola Lipsticks For Your Skin Tone

With brownish-red lipsticks making a super-hot comeback in our makeup routines thanks to the Y2K resurgence, it’s no surprise that the glossy, gen-Z twist on it has become a staple for us this season.

Yes, we’re talking about juicy, pouty lips reminiscent of the classic cherry Coke that used to be a rare treasure in our supermarkets. ‘Cherry cola lips’ is one trend that suits practically all skin tones, and takes our newfound love for flushed, blushed cheeks down to our pout – but the key lies in choosing just the right shade.

Here are our top picks to shop if you’re ready to get insider access to the hottest lip trend right now.

Light skin tones

The only thing you need to watch out for here is not picking a shade that’s too red or bright – this can take your look from dark feminine to chic and glam real quick, which is okay, if that’s what you’re aiming for! Instead, look out for shades that have more of an earthy brown tone to them.

Medium skin tones

You can pretty much take your pick from any of the lipsticks on this list – most shades will translate equally red and brown on your skin tone. We suggest picking up a clear gloss as well to take your look from day to night.

Tan skin tones

Pick lipstick shades that have an equal balance of red and brown hues to perfect the trend. In fact, if you already own a reddish-brown lipstick, you can simply top it off with a red gloss to turn up the colour and nail the trend.

Deep skin tones

Choose deeper shades that have more red than brown hues in them to stop the lipstick from turning into an MLBB shade instead. You can also invest in a brown lipliner and fill your lips in with a red lipstick to make this trend your own.
