Hi Hi! 😀
The Red Lipstick has become a VERY popular lip color. Here is my video to show you two different ways to wear it!
“Casual” Look
**For a more casual, everyday look, you want to keep it simple and balanced. Instead of wearing regular foundation, I used a lightweight tinted moisturizer with SPF. I paired a matte brown eyeshadow and a shimmery golden brown eyeshadow to go with my red lips.
TIP #1: ALWAYS make sure you moisturize your lips first with a lip balm. You do not want dry and flaky red lips.
Tip #2: Using your finger, dab the lipstick first and then apply it onto your lips. This will give you more control over how intense you want your lips to be. (This is extremely helpful if you are new to red lipstick :D)
TIP #3: Don’t forget to blot!
Products I Used:
- Laura Mercier Oil-Free Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20
- Urban Decay Naked Palette (colors used: Buck and Smog)
- L’Oreal Paris Infallible Never Fail Eyeliner in Carbon Black
- Bobbi Brown Extreme Party Mascara in Black
- Lioele Artist Auto Eyebrow in Gray Black
- Blistex Deep Renewal
- MAC Lipstick in Ruby Woo
“A Night Out” Look
**Since you’re going out, you definitely want a look that’s more attention grabbing…something that will turn heads perhaps. I suggest wearing darker colors on the eyes, like a seductive smokey eye. Here, I paired a metallic dark grey eyeshadow and a metallic black eyeshadow to go with my red pout.
TIP #4: When you want to achieve a more intense red lip, don’t forget the lip pencil and lip brush! The pencil will help prevent smudging and feathering, and the brush will help get the lipstick color into all the areas of your lips.
