I LOVE red lipstick
I usually wear Showcase by 17 (it’s an English brand from Boots, I’m not sure if you’ll be familiar with it) it’s got a really nice texture and holds well
Also I recommend Lipcote – it’s this kind of nail varnish looking liquid that you can paint over the top of lipstick and it holds it all day which is especially important with a bold shade like red

I am so into red lipstick lately! Sexy by Chanel is pricey but I find I can put it on without liner or a MIRROR! and it looks good! The only thing is before re-applying I have to make sure I have wiped it completely off of my lips before I put more on.

I just bought my very first red/any colored lipstick. I always do a nude lip having worn MAC SISS for years and years now. So seeing any color on my lips is thoroughly strange and terrifying. I’ve been looking for a rep lipstick for a while now to complete my halloween costume as a classic pin up girl. it was difficult to because for me to find something to go with my very tan asian skintone. I purchased MAC DIVA and surprisingly like it a lot. Now…how do i keep it off my teeth all night?

Line & full in your lips with a flesh toned pencil, then apply your red lipstick. The liner helps define & hold the colour but you avoid the “ring around the lip” look when your lipstick starts to fade. Tip courtesy of the late, great Kevyn Aucoin – always works for me!
