Makeup That Will Make Your Strawberry Blonde Hair Pop

Having red hair is a rarity. However, it can be argued that strawberry blonde hair is even more uncommon. Hair expert and stylist Aurea Sanchez-Coletto explained to Jean Louis David what precisely denotes strawberry blonde hair. She said, "Basically, strawberry blonde is mostly based on red tones, with blonde highlights dotted here and there." Coletto went on to say that strawberry blonde hair is, in fact, redder than it is blonde.

Several celebrities have made strawberry blonde their signature color, including actors Amy Adams and Isla Fisher. Famous blondes have also donned this color. In 2011, Blake Lively had a strawberry blonde look that fans envied. If you are not a natural strawberry blonde, you can always head to the salon to achieve this unique hue. A hairdresser can help you find the right strawberry blonde shade for your skin tone.

Keep in mind that you might have to bleach your hair, and the color can fade fast, which means more maintenance and salon appointments. Regardless of whether you're a natural or dyed strawberry blonde, one thing is sure; makeup and beauty tips for individuals with red-hued tresses can be hard to come by. Here's how you can ensure your strawberry blonde hair is the focal point of your makeup look.

The lips can be bold or neutral

While it's commonly believed that individuals with any shade of red hair should avoid bold lips, experts disagree. For example, pink lipstick can make the red hues in strawberry blonde hair pop. In a photo uploaded by Instagram user @magicmadie, her vivid reddish-pink lipstick paired with a dramatic cat eye accentuates her tousled strawberry blonde hair. However, the same effect can be achieved with a neutral color. @jaydnmeier showed off her newly dyed strawberry blonde hair with a glossy pinky peach lip.

Colorful eyeshadow can enhance your strawberry blonde hair

Neutrals and light eyeshadow colors will always complement strawberry blonde hair. But if you want a brighter look for your eyes, don't be afraid to play with color. Instagram user @dana.b.beauty did a pink eyeshadow look using the Pat McGrath Labs Divine Rose II palette, and matching lip color and blush for a monochromatic look. The pink eyeshadow draws you into her strawberry blonde hair. If you want to use mascara, black can darken light eyelashes. If black is too heavy for your taste, there are plenty of brown mascara options on the market, like the Diorshow 24h Buildable Volume Mascara.

Show off your natural beauty

Freckles and fair skin are common among redheads and strawberry blondes. Freckles are so popular that some people are faking them with makeup. If you have freckles, show them off! For coverage, opt for a tinted moisturizer. Most tinted moisturizers have SPF in them, which is a must for people with pale complexions, freckles, and red hair. Alternatively, you can skip out on the tinted moisturizer and use only concealer and setting powder instead, like TikTok user @sylvaaaan.
