For a long time I believed red lipstick simply looked awful on me.\u00a0 One day, I was inspired by CamiLovesKiwi on You Tube to give reds another try.\u00a0 At first I wasn’t used to the bold look of red on me, even with very minimal eye makeup minus winged liner, so I quickly gave up and went back to wearing mostly light to medium neutrals…\u00a0 I continued to hide within my “safe” colors.\u00a0 I finally learned that if I wanted to get comfortable with pulling off bold shades like reds and corals, it’s best to stick with it for even a little while ;); afterall, there’s a shade out there for everyone…\u00a0 just takes a bit of patience to find it.<\/p>\n

A few years later and most recently I discovered Besame Cosmetics<\/a> because of You Tube Chrissstttiiine<\/span><\/span><\/span>‘s Lipstick Collection video.\u00a0 Since I love vintage glamour and retro looks, I was easily seduced by their Noir Red 1930, Merlot 1933, and Red Velvet 1946.\u00a0 I love their attention to detail, whether the gold packaging with pretty chrysanthemum motif or whistle-shaped lipsticks!\u00a0 Great formula too!\u00a0 So give them a try!\u00a0 Mwahhh \u2665<\/p>\n
