Red lips are a dream for every woman. However, many a times due to lack of understanding, we end up buying the wrong shade and as I mentioned in my last post, the wrong shade of red can damage your overall look totally. 
Result: Due to lack of confidence, we shudder from wearing red lips outright! 
So here's a list for you that will give you a better idea of which shade is ideal for which skin tone: 

1. Warm Skin Tones: Orangey reds, Warm reds, Tomato reds, Brown based reds, Golden reds, Tawny reds.

This color is referred to as Tawny Red

Warm Tone: Such ladies have a peachy, yellow complexion. Skin tans easily, without burning.Veins near the underarm area are greenish or you may not even spot them a all.
Fair skin with warm undertones:	Warm Reds are meant for you
Brown skin with warm undertones	Go for deep reds with a mix of blue and brown
Dark skin with warm undertones	Reds with a dash of warm chestnut and sheer red glosses  are your colors
