The Classic Red Lip

I am loving the really natural make up look at the moment but when it needs a bit of ooomph to go from day to night you cannot go wrong with a chic red lip.



If you are unsure what red to wear then I'll make it simple for you....
1. Every skintone can carry a classic red
2. Make sure you use a moisturising texture as it is more wearable than matte.
3. Blot lips for a more subtle finish

My top 2 red lipsticks for you are....

Chanel Rouge Coco..... everyone needs a little Chanel in their life and this is my handbag's new best friend.
It has a luxurious finish to the packaging and feels amazing on your lips. I also love the heritage behind it, being first developed in 1954 by Mademoiselle herself, it has been revamped over the years with new technologies to the high standard of Make Up Artist Peter Phillips.
This is highly recommended!

Bourjois never get it wrong when it comes to colour and the new Sweet Kiss Les Rouges range has my vote!
There is a red to suit everyone.....
The colour is intense, yet the texture is light and it gives 8hr's of moisturisation.
I love the cutesy packaging and more than that I love the price tag!
£7.99 available from September in Boots, Superdrug and asos.com

  1. Hi Cassie

    Is it through that red lipstick can make teeth appear more yellow in colour?

  2. By wearing a bright lipstick you attract attention to your mouth which if your teeth were yellow it would make this noticeable. If this is a problem then instead concentrate on your eyes and leave your lips neutral. A red lip comes in so many different tones so try out a few and see how you feel. Light irredescent lipsticks would however make your teeth look less white so these should be avoided.
