Need help from ladies good with makeup cause I STINK!

I am awful with colors.

I am in a wedding and the color of the dress is chocolate brown. I tried on a few brown lipsticks and liner but its WAY too dark for me..I am VERY fair skinned. What color should I go with? A lighter brown? SHould I just do a gloss? Lipstick with liner and a gloss over it?? I am so confused!

I would do a darkish eye... like really black mascara and dark brown liner... and then do a light lip gloss... maybe nude liner with a peachy lip gloss...

You could even use a purple tone in your eyeshadow color. I did once for a wedding I was in - I wish I had a picture here at my house to scan and show you, it came out pretty nice.

A raisin color on your lips would look a lot better than brown. I wear chocolate brown a lot and am very fair. That is my usual lipstick color.

I would go w/ either a raisin or a very pale pink lip w/ a more dramatic eye.

I like the way pale pink goes w/ brown... And a lipgloss perhaps instead of a lipstick.

Maybe something like this...

I prefer to wear gloss instead of lipstick. I'm pretty fair skinned with a thin upper lip, and I find that gloss is more flattering. Maybe a nice nude color or something a little deeper (since gloss is sheer). I like MAC Lipglass, Stila glosses and Clinique's glosses and Almost Lipstick.

Personally i hate dark lips. I like a natural or peachy lip.

I'm awful w/colors too. I'm also fair skinned and wore Bobbi Brown "Putty" on my lips on my wedding day:
