Those who know me are well aware of my fondness for red lipstick (especially good old Ruby Woo which I'm totally about to write a post on). For me, a vibrant true red is my fail safe option, the little black dress of my lips, if you will.
A good red makes me feel instantly more perky and strangely more confident (does anyone know what I mean by this?), but perhaps it's time to expand my lipstick horizons a little and experiment with some colours that are a little out of my comfort zone...like bright PINK :o
I'd heard many good things about the Barry M Lip Paints, so I figured I'd gve the brand a whirl for my debut into the world of matte pink pouts. My colour of choice? Shocking Pink (shade 52). I figure if you're going to do something, you may as well really do it. Here are the results:
This picture doesn't really do the colour justice - in reality it is a bit brighter, and kind of makes me feel like I should have a long suffering boyfriend by the name of Ken whom I live with in our dream home. In other words, a bit like Barbie.
I think I'll get a lot of wear out of this in the coming months as the weather warms up a bit and I start tanning a bit. It's a really fun, vibrant shade that is matte yet moisturing - the perfect pink!
Thanks for reading! Thoughts?
