Last fall I
did something risqué; I wore bright red lips, and loved it!!!

Wearing Koh Red |
I guess I was
apprehensive about wearing red lipstick because of how easy it is to get the
look completely wrong, and I was not entirely sure how to get it right. After
admiring Kerry Washington crimson ensemble with flawless makeup, and timeless
red lips, I knew I had to try. So I did my research (Youtube) and gave it a
whirl. Well, since then I have fallen head over 4inch heels in love with red
lips.

It’s quick,
surprisingly very easy, and screams confidence. Wearing red lipstick is one of
the easiest ways to look like you spent an hour applying your makeup when you
actually only spent 10 minutes. A bit of black eyeliner, mascara, and a touch
of color on the cheeks is all that’s needed.
These are my
fave three red lipsticks:
Bold Red Lips
For a bold,
glossy finish I use KOH lipstick in RED! It’s is creamy so it goes on smooth.
Be warned, it stains, so you need to
apply a base prior to applying the lipstick to make removal a bit easier.
