For this season the hottest new trend for
Spring/Summer 2015 is red lips. The biggest challenge to some is mastering the
red pout. Even when you stare at the mirror hoping your look will end up being
old Hollywood glam, it ends up a complete disaster. The magic to getting those
flirty sexy lips is to identify what shade of rouge works for you. Not all reds
are created equal so before you purchase a red lipstick, here is some helpful
advice. Know what your skin undertone is, if you have a darker skin then your
more of a warmer undertone. If you are paler then you identify with having a
cooler undertone.
For awhile, the pros at fashion week were not using
red lipstick, it wasn’t until Mac’s Ruby Woo went from being a secret of the
brand’s vast collection, to the best selling, sold out, must have that it is
today. I mention this brand because it’s absolutely amazing. If you are looking
for a truer red then Ruby Woo by MAC is the lipstick for you. It comes as a
matte finish and can really show off a sensual red pout. This lipstick lasts
for up to 8 hours on your lips. If you want to have it last even longer, use a
lip pencil first then apply the lipstick, you will be ready for a Hollywood
close up in no time. Important fact, this lipstick can be drying on the lips so
defiantly moisturize your lips before you apply the lipstick.
If you prefer a more orange red try Mac's Russian Red, its perfect for both
undertones also its a matte finish that will add an extra sizzle to your pout.
If you want to sex up your look, try a lip liner to go with your lipstick.
Outline your lips down to the center it doesn’t have to be perfect; it just
helps your lipstick stay on longer. Rimmel London’s Lady Danger is perfect
substitute if you are on a budget.
For those of you who wish to spend a little more
money, try Chanel Rouge CoCo Lipstick its a unique blend
of alluring rose, a hint of infusion of spicy reds that really get your senses
tingling. You can wear this lipstick without a liner and it has this nice satin
finish.
The only downside is you spend a little more money
then you really want to. If you bought 3 MAC lipsticks, it would be equivalent
to the price of one Chanel lipstick. I think if you desire a less bright lip
but still have more power, go for a true red with cooler tones. A statement red
would have warmer tones and be more orange.
Once you have found the perfect
rouge, you can add some excitement into your life by sporting a red carpet
ready, zesty pout for any day of the week. Apply your lipstick starting at the
center of the lips and working outward to the sides.
Once you have covered the
whole lip, press them together and then finish by pressing a sheet of tissue in
between your lips to blot. If you require a stronger look, re-apply the
lipstick and blot again. To add a glossy shine to your lips, try putting a dab
of clear lip-gloss in the center of the lips for a unique feel that extends the
life of your colour. Get your pout on ladies and see if you to can master the
sexy pout.
