Are you ready for 14 Days of Ravishing Red? Stay tuned as we explore ravishing red ? lipsticks, lip liners and glosses every day on our way to ? Valentine’s.
This glossy cherry ? creates the sheerest veil of yellowy red — even sheerer than Neutrogena’s Deep Cherry, and ya know, that’s why I like it. NARS Scandal ($21) is shiny, sheer, sweet and innocent.
Ah… It takes me back to my middle school years, when sheer rollerball glosses were all the rage, and every girl’s lips looked like this after they touched up after lunch.
Among the things I love about it: that I can still see my lip freckles when it’s on.
The sheerness might make Scandal more of a layering gloss for ladies and gents who prefer bold lip colors, but I love this on its own, especially when it’s worn with just mascara, a little concealer and a messy bun.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

It surely is a great everyday color and looks effortless, yet still red. I understand why you love it.
Katherine Long says
Sorry……Karen, I do not like that shade. It’s a bit of brown, red, gloss, white, not uniform. It looks as if you had something to eat, drink and the colour was transferred and the result was what is left on your lips.
Diana says
Rollerball gloss effect and messy bun my kind of Sunday (everyday!). Love you can see your lip freckles, so naturally pretty.
Linda says
Hi Karen, I love your earrings! Can you tell me about them?

I think this is a great one for summer. But maybe I always think that about very glossy and sheer lip colors. 🙂 Or, maybe it’s because you’re wearing a short sleeve shirt, you lucky duck!
