If you don’t want to spend on your dentist for a whiter smile, you just have to ensure that you make the right choice of lipstick colors. The magic is predominantly prevalent in the cooler lipstick undertones. These undertones can assist in canceling out the yellow hues on the teeth that are caused by certain foods like wine and coffee. Here is a guide of 6 colors that will assist you in choosing the right shade for your lips.
Keep it Light with Nudes
Nude lipsticks can be absolutely natural but at times it takes a gloss to make the lips shine brighter. Nude lipsticks are not the first choice when you are thinking of making your teeth look whiter. But instead of the going for the peach and brown nudes, you should opt for the pink ones. The nude shades make the thinner lips look fuller and when you opt for the pinkie nudes, they will be better than the neutrals and your teeth too will look brighter.

Quintessential Red
Red like MAC’s Ruby Woo shade has remained the most preferred shade among the fashionistas. For most skin types the scarlet hues happen to work out well. But if you want to know how these tones help in making the teeth white, then understand that blue and yellow or orange shades are posed opposite each other on the color wheel. Therefore, when they come together, the lipsticks with blue base tend to cancel the yellow shades on the teeth. So always opt for blue-based reds instead of the orangish or brownish ones.

Rocky Raspberry
When you are thinking of making your teeth look whiter let a bolder, brighter pink or raspberry shade do the job perfectly. This is because the undertones happen to be blue in these shades of pink. This is vital for making the teeth look much whiter. So instead of the matte finish, you should try a raspberry tint. To add an instant injection of volume, you can add a hint of gloss in the in the central portion of the lip.

Pick the Purple
Unfortunately, the darker shades of purple can make the teeth look yellower. So lean towards the purple with pink and cooler undertones. A purple that comes with cool undertones helps to make your smile look whiter than the brown/warm toned counterparts.

Go Coral
The orange tones can be a bit challenging to make the teeth seem whiter. This is because it looks yellowish at times. It is for this reason that choosing the pink-to-blue undertones which can highlight the pearly features further, is a wise decision. The cool coral and the orangish tones are mostly included in this case.

Turquoise Tactics
The blue shades make the teeth look whiter and for the same reason, turquoise shades also help to make your smile brighter. The turquoise shade is mostly prevalent in nude colors. You can team that up with a moisturizing lip

What Not to Wear
In order to fake a beautiful smile, there are some shades that you need to avoid. These include the following –
- Browns – Brown lipsticks are a definite no if you don’t want to exaggerate your yellow teeth. The brown shades can highlight the yellow tinge on the teeth.
- Neons – Have you noticed how your skin looks more tanned when you wear a nail color or a dress in neon color? This works in the same way with your teeth as well. You will automatically adopt a brownish shade on your teeth if you opt for a neon lip color.
- Matte – The matte lip looks too dry and your teeth don’t get any shade to bounce off, which results in a yellower looking teeth.
While choosing the right shade of lipstick helps to make your teeth look considerably whiter, if you think that your teeth have lost its shine and glamour, you can definitely opt for a professional teeth whitening treatment at a dental clinic so that your pearly whites are restored and you can flaunt a million-dollar smile whenever you want with confidence.
