A Friendly Reminder

Red lipstick looks horrible on most women and all men. Period. But today I think I look good in it. Just excuse my gigantic pores and my overgrown mustache and am close to clown perfection. c",)

Do you wear red lipstick? Mind sharing the brand and the shade? This one is from In2it, shade cherry cookoo booohyaaah. Nope, it's really just shade Flambe. Heck there are so many shades of red right now. And over the years, there have been literally thousands of names for the same shade of red lipstick, yet there are only three shades of red i can think of - red, dark red and light red. Period(again). And I mean that grammatically and not menstrually. And am pretty sure somewhere in a laboratory two scientists are high-fiving each other, laughing at all the names of red they invented. And am such an idiot buying and buying that same red. I am so sick of buying red lipstick, because I have got so many now in my search for my perfect red. Each time revlon is coming out of a new red, Id buy. Ill try it, believing i have found my red and my search is over. Then Ill try it at home and look like a clown. But hey I cheer myself up each time i see a mirror. So am fine wearing red from time to time. It's clownish, but makes me happy. c",)

i love wearing red lipstick..and i miss wearing it, too..since expats here in Riyadh don't cover their faces when they go out, I might get stopped by a religious police for wearing red lipstick and be told to wear it only at home and not in public places! lol...

LOL yeah I think red lipsticks are quite tricky to wear. One should really be confident to do so. I've never worn red lips out ~ hehe ~ I only wear it at home, take pictures, take a makeup remover, and "erase" the red. LOL. I love the stain it leaves. Soooo, I guess I should get a lip stain instead. LOL. This comment is crazy.

I absolutely love wearing red lipstick and I'd say at this point it's a pretty big part of my look. For every day I just use Revolutionary Pink and Voluptuous from Rimmel but for occasions I like Laura Mercier lip stain in Mulberry and of course Dior (in Red Muse or Favori Red).

this is funny! but you're right, wearing red lipstick is not a joke. i bought one, but when i tried it on, i freaked out and never wore it again especially when i go out! haha the boldest i can get to lip color is hot pink and that's it.... but i home one of these days i'd have the courage to try red lipstick again! :)

i am a huge fan of the bright colored lipstick from MAC, they are so soft and they will last forever. but i love the combination of your lipstick and the amazing blue dress. you look smashing girl. Oh and i never look at a lipsticks name, because it is way too complicated

I used to hate my lips..and anything I tried to put on them. But now, I'm on the lookout for bold colors! hahahaha..

Haven't found my perfect red yet pero Mac's russian red aint bad and apparently goes well with most skin tones. kung ayaw mo naman ng in your face red, viva glam cyndi is a bit sheer. and I heard that Revlon's Chacha red is a good one too.. pangalan pa lang, winner na!
