What Is a Plum Lipstick Look?
Plum lipstick covers a range of deep, berry-inspired purple-reds. The look is sophisticated and dramatic, instantly adding depth and richness to your makeup. Depending on the exact shade, plum can lean cooler (with blue or pink undertones) or warmer (with hints of brown or red).
Who Does Plum Lipstick Suit?
- Cool undertones: Blue-based or pinkish plums (like #6E2440) flatter cool or neutral skin. Fair and light skin tones often look striking in these shades.
- Warm undertones: Choose plums with more red or brown, avoiding blue-violet hues. Medium and deep skin tones can pull off most plums, but richer, warmer plums look especially seamless.
- Face shape: Plum lips draw focus to the mouth, complementing oval, heart, and round faces. If unsure, scan your selfie below to identify your undertone and shape - no need to guess.
How to Wear Plum Lipstick
- Liner: Use a matching or slightly darker lip liner to define edges and prevent feathering.
- Finish: Matte plums are modern and bold; satin or gloss finishes soften the look.
- Pairing: Keep cheeks and eyes soft and neutral. Try a matching plum blush and a wash of plum or taupe on lids for balance, as previewed in the virtual try-on below.
