For instance, you may try better oral hygiene or get a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.longmontcompletedentistry.com\/teeth-whitening.html\">teeth whitening<\/a> treatment. However, did you know the color of makeup can help too? Indeed, the right shade for your lips can make your smile seem pearly white. Just listen to your resident Longmont dentist to learn more about the matter. Here, then, is a summary of how makeup can improve teeth and great lip colors for a whiter smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can Makeup Improve Teeth?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you might know, lip color can draw out certain hues in your skin tone. For instance, Berry shades flatter darker skin, while various pinks look nice if you\u2019re pale. Industry uses that fact to create makeup tailored to a person\u2019s natural appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, your lips\u2019 shade can also make your teeth seem whiter in comparison. The proper contrast, after all, can highlight the sheer difference between certain colors. You could even add certain blushes to strengthen the effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Great Lip Colors for a Whiter Smile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, not all lip colors look good with smiles. You\u2019ll want to find the right ones for your pearly whites. With that said, consider those listed below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blue-Based Red<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Red isn\u2019t just a standard for great-looking lips. In truth, the color also flatters your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, be careful with the shade of red you consider. There\u2019s a fine line between red lipstick that makes a smile look whiter and one that makes it seem not-so-bright. Therefore, go for a blue-based red instead of an orange-based shade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fruit Punch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you prefer a color between cool red and deep pink, you may like a fruit punch lipstick. Firstly, the latter would mimic the shade of a sweet drink or flavored ice pop. Better yet, though, it would also give your chompers a brighter look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The shade is easy to find in various pharmacies, supermarkets, and other retailers. The brand L\u2019Oreal, in particular, carries great examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Berry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, you don\u2019t always have to go for the bright and airy colors. Opting for a berry shade instead of warm-toned ones is a good option too. It gives you a more exotic look, plus it uses its purple-blue base to balance stains on your pearly whites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need inspiration, talk to your local dentist about possible choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, the color of makeup can make a great difference to your smile. So, go ahead and start on your new makeover!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em><u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.longmontcompletedentistry.com\/contact-us.html\">Longmont Complete Dentistry<\/a><\/u><\/em><em> is based in Longmont, CO.
