One of the quickest ways to feel more feminine is to put on lipstick.
In fact, I say you aren’t fully dressed without a swipe of lipstick or lip gloss! This applies to everyone, including crossdressers and trans women.
Whether you like a subtle clear lip or a bold red pout, your favorite lip color reveals a lot about your feminine style.
Curious what your lip color preference says about YOU? Keep reading to find out and then participate in my lip color poll below!
Red = Confident
Red lipstick is sexy, classic, and bold. It projects confidence and self-assurance.
Go for red lips if you want to attract attention and show your sensual side.
Bright Pink = Bubbly
Bright pink lips are bubbly and energetic.
This is a bold, fun shade that projects playfulness. Wear bright pink lipstick if you want to be the proverbial life of the party.
Soft Pink = Feminine
Soft pink is a delicate, feminine lipstick shade. Choose this color if you’re the romantic type and want to look soft, sweet, and girly.
Mauve or Russet = Mysterious
Mauve and russet are muted lipstick shades with purple or brown undertones.
These understated colors are perfect if you want to appear mysterious, sophisticated, and intelligent.
Burgundy or Berry = Seductive
Burgundy and berry are deep, rich lip colors for those who aren’t afraid to make a statement.
They signal confidence and boldness, but with more seriousness than pure red or bright pink. Think sexy, seductive, and a bit mysterious.
Coral = Friendly
Coral is a beautiful peachy color with undertones of pink and orange. It’s a happy color that’s perfect for friendly, bubbly personalities.
Wear coral lipstick if you want to give off positive, optimistic vibes.
Nude = Warm
Nude lips are understated and classic. They give off a warm and caring vibe.
Nude lipstick is soft and feminine, but projects more seriousness than light pink lipstick.
Lip Gloss = Fun
Glossy lips, whether clear or with a hint of color, show off a fun personality that loves the spotlight.
Wear lip gloss if you want to give off a youthful vibe with a touch of glitz and glamour.
Lip Balm = No-nonsense
Maybe you don’t wear lipstick or lip gloss at all.
If bare lips or lip balm are your “colors” of choice, you show that you want to be taken seriously. You are no-nonsense, practical, and minimalistic.

My favorite lip colour is fuchsia which I guess is closest to a bright pink. Having said this, every girl needs a true red lipstick.
I love the darks and the pinks. Depends on what I am wearing and my mood really…
Very inspirational as I can be in different moods so this helps me in my choices.I was inspired to use this for nail polish today.Went and got pink red and blue colors.
Lipstick is in order for any exposure. It reinforces my feeling of being what I am. Even if I’m just going outside to work around the house, the minimum is some eyebrow pencil for my really pale brows, and a dab of lipstick. \
I’m a red-lip gal, but it’s not always an intense shade. Occasionally more pinkish. For going out for fun, I like to touch up strategic spots with gloss or lighter color. The highlights add depth and get a bit more attention. For extreme party mood, there’s always glitter.
I sometimes scrape tube ends into a tiny jar if I like the color, just to stretch it out. Apply with fingertip. It just now occurred to me that I could mix shades to get whatever color I want. Hmmm, there are possibilities. Maybe even a streaky coat. (?)
Thank You for giving me some of your lip in your posts.
My favorites are burgundy, russet or mauve for that lady-like look ! I find shiny lipgloss, so popular these days, kind of trashy…in everythjng, dress, make-up, hairstyle and -color I want to be a lady !
i luv bright pink, but i realized i dont have any close ups. so here is my 2nd fav.
I DO love a soft pink but I also go the other extreme depending on my mood or what I am doing or about to do I guess… Oh, and what I am wearing at the time has a great deal to do with it as well…

I love to apply light pink shade lipstick on my lips. I have four other shades too i.e. Red, soft pink, lip glow and nude.
At night I prefer red shade.
When I go to office i apply either nude or lip glow for fun.
