Generally, you should not wear lipstick in a passport photo. Passport photo regulations often require a neutral and natural appearance.
Here's why:
- Distortion: Bright lipstick can be distracting and may distort your facial features in the photo, especially under the harsh lighting used for passport photos.
- Inconsistency: Your appearance in the photo should closely resemble your actual appearance. If you rarely wear lipstick, it might make it difficult for officials to recognize you at a later date.
- Regulations: Most countries have specific guidelines for passport photos, and many explicitly prohibit heavy makeup.
However, it's always best to check the specific guidelines for your country's passport photo requirements.
