Now that holidays is just around the corner, we are all going to somehow incorporate red in our outfit! Don't lie I'm sure you're guilty of it too! Red is considered the holiday color and I'm not entirely sure why. Ofcourse for makeup, red lips is everything. Finding the right red shade is quite hard and it is also one of the high maintenance shade. By that I mean, you have to constantly reapply to get that true red color. Also some red shades can make your teeth look a little yellow, so I recommend you find a blue-tone red to make your lips appear whiter. In terms of formulation, look for a matte lipstick/lip cream. It has the best lasting power which means less reapplying and fading. It can be a little bit drying so exfoliate and put a lip balm on before hand to avoid patchy application.
