There is something very high fashion, glamour and stylish about red lipstick. Whether you want to look like a femme fatale, a fashionista, a classic beauty, a pin-up girl or a goddess, just dab some red on your lips and voila! You’ll be immediately transformed.
From the past and into the future, whether you are just starting out in makeup and fashion or winding down and yet still want that look – You already know that if you are a female and you want to add drama, style, pizzazz and attention to your life, red lipstick is it.
Take a look at how these ladies rock the red…
“I love red lipstick because it’s a choice. Wearing it shows confidence, demands that the world pay attention and dares you to live up to it… I felt like the women who wore red lipstick were more deserving than me, more powerful than me.” – Why I Wore [red] Lipstick to my Mastectomy.
