Over the centuries the red lipstick has always had the power to mesmerize.
The red lipstick to beauty is the same to what the little black dress is to fashion, they are equally a must-have for any lady. The only difference is that when you wear red lipstick people immediately notice you the minute you walk into a room. Red lips are classic and can make any face look elegant.
A few tips to consider:
- Match your skin tone - Test before you buy and see what shade works best with your skin tone. Intense red shades tend to work best with darker skin tones and lipsticks with blue tones underneath suit fair skin.
- Avoid heavy eye make up - Try and pair the red lips with lightest possible eye make up.
- Prep your lips- 'Preparation is key, as lips need to be soft and hydrated to keep that fabulous timeless red lip look' . You can exfoliate with a toothbrush and mosturize with a lip balm.
- Avoid bleeding lips - Fill your lips with a lip liner so that the lipstick texture will stay in place.
