Red lips

Hello!

To be honest, I'm not a girl who wears bright colours on her lips a lot. Well, except for red. I think red is such a classic colour and if I could travel back in time, I would definitely choose the fifties. Or the medieval times (don't ask why, just something about knights and horses and castles...)

Anyway, back to the colour red. It's a lip colour you can wear with any outfit, even if your outfit doesn't have red in it. When people think of red lips, they immediately think of a classy and formal outfit. But recently, women have been wearing it as an everyday look and I absolutely love it! Your outfit can be monotonous and bland but add some bright red lips and POP! You stand out and you can make any clothes ensemble look amazing with some colour. You can wear yesterday's clothes or even a plastic bag but add some red lipstick and nobody would notice anything other than your lips.

There are different kinds of red lipsticks. I like matte colours since they tend to stay on longer and it's a little more subtle. Well, the subtlest a red lip could get of course. The three lipsticks pictured below are my favourite. They stay on all day and don't require much touching up (unless you're a very messy eater/drinker).

Here are 3 of my favourite red lipsticks:
107 Kate Moss collection from Rimmel
01 Kate Moss collection from Rimmel
Rouge Vermeil from PHAS

Here are some swatches:
