20 Essentials To Be The Ultimate Gorgeous Ginger

Being a redhead may start from way above your eyebrows, but rest assured that if they are no match to your hair colour - you will notice pretty soon. Same way, if you were born a redhead you are probably familiar with the limited range of shades available on the shelves when it comes to eyebrow makeup. Thankfully, Redhead Revolution’s Brow Love Gel is here to break this cycle.

Let’s be honest, we’ve all been on the go at times - and when that happens, dry shampoo is what keeps us going without looking like a greaseball.

Red is a highly pigmented type of dye that washes out quite easily. When this happens, you can always buy yourself some time by using the right products when it’s washing up time. A red-boosting shampoo (often paired with a red-friendly, colour-protecting conditioner and a weekly, colouring hair mask) is the perfect product to implement in your hair care routine after dyeing your tresses red. That will help you reduce the number of salon appointments over time, saving you a decent amount of money.

If you’re planning to go on a holiday to live your best life under the scorching sun of whatever location, then make sure you protect the precious gingerness of your hair with the right products.

Henna is a great ally to hair in general. It bonds to your strands and fortifies them from the inside, and on top of that its antifungal properties are a lifesaver in case you’re struggling with dandruff. Also, you could pick a red henna to dye your hair red in an all-natural way.

Whether you’re a seasoned redhead or a new addition to the team, if you’re into make-up you're probably already aware of the fact that certain hues are a match made in heaven when paired with a specific shade of hair.

When it comes to make up, natural gingers can find themselves struggling to find the right shade for their lips. And when they find it, maybe the texture is the problem. Matte lipsticks have become an awfully popular product over the years, and they’re here to stay. Matte lip liners, however, are more often than not overlooked (big mistake!) and therefore the range of shades available on the market can be a little too exclusive. NYX changed this with their roster of Suede Matte Lip Liners, that includes shades to complement even the fairest of gingers looking for a nude lips look.

If you’re a natural ginger, chances are your beautiful face is also covered in adorable freckles. The regular SPF that you use on your body may be a little too heavy for your face, and if you decide to go without makeup you’ll need to slather a generou amount of sun protection on it to protect it from sunburns, skin cancer and premature ageing.

A true redhead’s delight.
