photos by: sister, Lily
I spent the day hanging with my sister, chatting, and having fun experimenting and trying
new things with my makeup/hair-
it’s kinda nice to step out of my comfort zone and do something completely different than what I wouldn’t normally do on a regular basis.
My sister decided we tried doing a red lipstick on me since I rarely wear anything bold on my lips. We both agreed it would be cool and I thought it’d be fun to show you guys how it would look.
I’ve always been a big fan of red lipstick, but never was lucky enough to find a dope shade of red.
Here though, she used Rouge/Red 017 from Make Up Forever’s new 12 Flash Color Case, which I’m now obsessed with!
It’s long lasting, didn’t smear and its the perfect shade for my tanned skin.
We swept my bangs/hair to the side to give it a soft yet prettier look and waved
the rest of the hair to give it volume.
Super easy hair do that took literally less than 5 mins to do…works great when you have straight
hair and you never know how to style it.
Loved my sisterly fun date!

Any other recommendations on red lipsticks? Do tell!

Aw girl you look fly! I love the hair and makeup! I’ve been trying to find a nice shade of red myself, and just picked up MAC’s “Brave Red” shade. It’s also a great one!

You look gorgeous! Loving the flowy blouse x
cool!
The lipstick is well to you and the color corresponds more clearly or more red not that would have made vulgar it is good because you did not too much make up eyes, GREAT HAIRSTYLE. Good choice and your top are great.
Gosh, the combo of the hair and the lips, you look completely different! Beautiful photos, go sis!!!

Great red lips…
Greetings from Norway:)
I love your hair! It’s so pretty! And the red lipstick is definitely a keeper
I don’t tend to wear lipsticks because I find them quite drying, but when I do I love to press it onto the lips with my finger rather than apply it thickly. It gives a really soft, stained look and lasts ages. Works really nice with reds and bright, hot pinks!
U look absolutely absolutely stunning! Love this look! Love what u have on ur cheeks too..
You look gorgeous! Love the side swept fringe and the lippy! Red lipstick is a funny one, what with different undertones for different skin tones, but you’ve cracked it I reckon

WOW! You look gorgeous!I just bought my first tube of red (it was a whole buck). I’ve worn it 4 times in my bathroom, yet still haven’t had the nerve to go any further with it. I have brown skin as well so I think it’s pretty hard to get just the right shade but you’ve certainly done it.

Loving this glamorous look, change is good. Also loving your eye makeup, too. When I’m brave enough to wear red, my favorite shade is by Rimmel. I add a touch of pink gloss on top to give it some texture and shine.
Too add to the chorus, you look stunning in these pictures. I love the soft, side-swept hair and that shade of deep red is perfect for you.
I started getting into red lipstick this year and after plenty of testing, I fell for Cherry Lush by Tom Ford. It’s a perfect shade for my darker skin tone.
You look amazingggg! Love this bold new look on you!
