*le sigh* Don’t you just love how the (right) red lipstick effortlessly brightens up the face? What’s your fave red lippie? Mine’s MAC Lipstick in RUSSIAN RED topped with MAC Lipglass in SQUEEZE IT (LE, from the MAC Fafi collection).

MAC Russian Red, The Face Shop Deep Wine, and lots more! I love experimenting with different reds. I own like 5 red lipsticks!
I don’t use red lippie, bambi knows that! She saw me in red lipstick though during the CAS event..lol…I am not comfortable with it.
The beautynomist’s model looks great with red lippie!!!
I’ve always wanted to try on a red lippie. I’m always stuck with natural looking shades…it’s time to grow up! haha! Any other reds you can recommend? Btw, how much are MAC’s lippies? Thanks!
@Bambi
I honestly can’t imagine you not wearing a red lippie
@Nikki
The color of Cristine’s lippie in person is wayyy more red. Almost as red as the flower on her hair if I reckon correctly.
Maybe you haven’t met your red lippie yet
@Gn.
What’s your skin tone and what finish do you like? Matte? Satin? Frost? MAC lippies’re around Php 900.
Help me make a recommendation
What’s the difference between a matte and satin finish? HAHA! I am such a lipstick virgin.
I’m fair with slight yellow undertones..I think. Just check out this picture (http://isawatsago.multiply.com/photos/album/110/Hong_Kong_Team_Building_Day_3#56) to be sure
I’m sorry it had to be that picture. hehe. But it’s the closest thing to my real skintone now.
Thanks!
I’m still frustrated with red lipstick :(( I was thinking of getting Port Red from MAC Naughty Nauticals, but it’s out of stock!
[…] Gn. & Crissy are definitely not alone. I bet that most of you are still either confused or on a hunt for that […]
