Honestly, I think any woman could pull off a red lipstick, even out her skin tone, and add a few coats of mascara and call it a day! Especially busy moms like myself who never shy away from a makeup shortcut. But of course I went a step further.
I played up my eyes with a winged eye liner and gold accents along the lower lash line to feel even a bit more fancy. This red drugstore lip color gets a 9.5 out of 10 on my lipstick scale. I am loooving the creamy dreamy formula that feels super moisturizing on my dried out lips, yet doesn’t slide around my mouth. The color has an ever so slight orangey hint to it, but verges on the side of a true red. And the gold case makes it feel like a more expensive lipstick. Pretty packaging doesn’t hurt right??
