But colour choice should be well planned. Par example, I would personally not wear red lips with red nails as I feel it would be a bit too much (though I juxtapose myself on 'bit too much' later*), but each to their own.
The colours I would choose to match lips and nails with are berry, nude and black (*can black and black be considered a 'bit too much'?). Obviously berry and berry works, being the classic Autumn/Winter combo; and nude and nude works for a classic, sophisticated, and also 90's look. Personally I think black and black would look good together, though you do have to be quite brave to whip it out at any other time than Halloween.
As I am yet to find the right shade of nude lipstick to suit my face, I will discuss the berries. When matching lips and nails, I quite like the shades of be almost identical. My almost-identical shades here are an Accessorize lipstick in 'Infatuated', and an Essie nail varnish in 'Bahama Mama'.

| Essie 'Bahama Mama' |
'Infatuated' was my first ever lipstick and it's so beautiful, I am pleasantly surprised by Accessorize's makeup range (they also do good nail varnishes). Being a non-matte lipstick, it can get quite messy, and I would recommend not eating whilst wearing it. 'Bahama Mama' was on my wishlist for about a year and it does not disappoint. It's the perfect berry shade, and the quality of Essie nail varnishes is brilliant. The two products are basically the same shade, which I love.
Accessorize lipstick- Around £5.49 (Superdrug)
Essie nail varnish- £7.99 (Boots or Superdrug)
