Red Lipstick – Taboo Tip Tuesday

Catherine

I’ve long admired woman who wear bright red lipstick.  Lips that are a whisper of vintage style and elegant class.  Fashioning red hair creates a challenge when adding any additional red to your ensemble.  In clothes or makeup.

My oldest daughter has beautiful porcelain skin, blond locks, crystal blue eyes and the perfect frickin’ canvas for bright color!  Together we searched for the taboo color to initiate a kiss.  Her color, less allusive, is the hue mastering perfection.  I chose…but with hesitation.  ”Blackberry” from Revlon is a deeper rich red in it’s pure form but explodes with neon brightness when applied.  Where, oh where to boldly style this spiciness???

Why do woman choose this color?  For fun?  For fashion?  To be noticed?  To tempt?  To live for a day now past?  To deceive?  To be devine?  To feel confident?  My girl wore her chosen color out on Saturday night.  It had a definite effect on the men around her.

As for me, do I dare?  Not only to wear…but for what end?  Who would like to see my fashion my new color??
