Red lips used to intimidate me for the longest time. I remember being six, getting ready for a dance recital backstage – you know where they force kids to wear gaudy makeup and sequins – and this lady took a grubby old tube of red lipstick and started to aggressively apply it to every little ballerina in my class, one after the other (eww gross!). She applied it with so much sloppy force that everyone had red teeth. Now that I am an adult, I have finally repressed that memory and embraced the red lip look (hopefully making it classy).
The makeup:
Boots No.7 Intelligent Balance Mousse Foundation in Almond
Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush in Plum Wine
Bare Minerals Liner/Shadow in Onyx with ID Weather Everything Liner Sealer
CG Lash Blast Volume Waterproof Mascara in Very Black
Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Candy Apple

GORGEOUS! That’s it, I going out to try a lip butter today.
Simple and classic. Love how you don’t use a million products. I was wondering about the Bouncy blush. It looks great on you.
love this look on you. Red lips bring out your smile
Pretty! Looks great.
Looks awesome!
Agreed. Most makeup posts involve a million products, like the average person has the time and money to go out and buy the entire makeup counter. Thanks for keeping it simple!
