It's the color of an incredibly delicious, sweet tasty wine and of deep, dark, velvet like red colored roses. I’m talking about burgundy. A perfect middle ground between red, brown and black hair. Add purple tones to any of the above and what you get is the beautiful and intriguing burgundy hair color.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></b><br />

Maybe you get tired of your black or dark brown hair and red gives you the wink. Hmmm. Still, </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">not all the way red</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> but a little bit of red tint sure sounds like an interesting change. Or perhaps you </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">already</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> have a red hair color. Or light brown ? And you feel it's time to go for a darker shade but...well...</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">not something completely dark</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> ? You always have to decide what's best for </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">you</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. Nevertheless, burgundy is a gorgeous option !</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Plus you won't have to worry about </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">hot trends </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">or anything. Because this splendid hue seems to be a </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">steady climbing trend</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, starting few years back. And I'm sure you can remember celebrities like Emma Stone or Rihanna that went for a wine colored hair, not a long time ago.</span></b><br />

<b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></b><b id="internal-source-marker_0.5045390436425805" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">From the genuine, true red burgundy and to the deep or dark shades of it, more or less vibrant, the options are plenty and they all look impressive. I love them all ! Also because this particular color makes other people to perceive you as a confident and daring person. Yes, you can be sure it has that effect.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Women with an olive tone skin are quite lucky, because a burgundy colored hair works best with this type of skin. That’s a fact. This doesn’t mean it won’t go well with other skin tones. Of course, you are free to experiment. Though in case of a cool-toned skin, I believe it’s not recommended at all.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">“Is burgundy hair suitable for black women ? Does it look good on women with dark skin ?”</span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Well, in this case, I would talk about Rihanna again. You already know how she loves to change her look quite often, showing us inspiring hairstyles and colors. And she always looks fantastic. Every time. And luckily, she’s the answer to your question, because she had her hair dyed burgundy a while ago (both red and deep shades, on different occasions). And that makes her the perfect model for you to witness how fabulous this color can look on black women.</span></b><br />

find it unusual, an oddity even. Yet others would love to try it out.
Blue lipstick is an intriguing choice. I’ve seen beautiful results
when in the hands of skillful makeup artists. But then again I could
also witnessed how bad it looks when poorly used. Such an
unforgiving hue, that you will either make a stunning impression or it will mess up your look
so badly, you won’t get unnoticed. Still, how did they come up with this
color ?</span></span><br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px;">Starting
with the thirties and going all through the sixties, cosmetic companies
went on a full throttle to deliver all shades of red and pink they
could come up with. The traditional dark red was in much need of
diversification. The culminating point of this period was the
introduction of the white lipstick. This color was very sought after by
some of the contemporary rock groups, namely Shirelles and Ronettes.
With this kind of audience, the product was well-liked and rapidly
gained popularity, more so among teenager girls. The growing trend in
lipstick’s color diversity was yet to stop.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;">I
believe what happened next was the manufacturers followed their own
inertia, eager to deliver yet further nuances. With the pink-red-like
colors pretty much covered, I think someone must have thought: “what
other colors are out there we could use?”. The obvious response was
found looking at all the “cold” and dark tones: blue, green, violet and
black. Such inspiration although a daring one, was well-received by the
public.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;">In
1970’s cosmetic companies introduced along with green, violet and black
hues, the more notorious blue based lipsticks. At a first glance might
seem an unusual selection of nuances to use on the lips. While the blue rendition of the lipstick
never developed in a huge fashion blast or a style revolution, they found immediate
acceptance. Particular groups of people and random events found them
useful and expressive in regards with the theme they were aiming for.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline;">The following years, lipstick makers brought up a plethora of blue shades, going from the traditional navy to </span><span style="font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline;"> variants like dark, silver sparkled, sheer aqua, translucent ice or sapphire.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;">Until
today, blue lipstick found its own place in cosmetic products
portfolios. Unlike the traditional warm colors, it’s not present in the
catalogs all the time. This behavior follows the lipstick’s spiky
popularity. Blue lips look come in and out of the spotlight as fashion
designers or celebrities choose to use it. Whenever they want a unique touch, blue based lipsticks are a tempting and desired alternative, even the </span><a href="http://ebluelipstick.blogspot.com/p/blue-based-red-lipstick.html" style="font-size: 14px;"><b>red lipstick with blue undertones</b></a><span style="font-size: 14px;">.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: 14px;">Sometimes
sporting a great success, other times bringing an unfortunate disaster
to the wearer, blue lipstick is often regarded as a welcoming addition to the color palette.
Because it’s always a good thing to have more options.</span></div>
