How Many Red Lipsticks Do You Need?

Tons.

Basically.

 

I was going through my drawers checking a few things and realised I really do own a lot of red lipsticks.

To the untrained eye (mostly the boyf's) this is madness - they are all 'the same'.

No no no no no.

EVERY ONE IS ESSENTIAL!

 

Here's a few faves, and exactly why they are all oh so very different.

 

 

Ooooh you beauties....

 

 

Right, first up - Revlon Lip Butters... Lollipop and Berry Smoothie

the finish of a lip butter is shiny, and balmy - or buttery you may say (see what I did there) with a good pigmentation, both Lollipop and Berry (as the name says) very different - Lollipop is a hot pink colour - warm and vibrant with Berry being a lot deeper and rich.

 

Revlon Matte Red - GORGEOUS. One of my faves. Staying power like no tomorrow, super pigmented orange- red and a go-to work shade (if your daring enough) without breaking the bank either.

No7 - the name escapes me  (sorry!) I wanted a more neutral red -a 'lips but better colour' this did the trick nicely also a good work shade!

 

 

New CiD or <id (?)  again a hot red, easy to apply, this served me well on a fancy dress night as has a handy mirror and light - yup a light!!

Illamasqua - my FAVE brand - Drench and Sangers. Dench is a darker

Sangers has been likened to MACs Russian Red - which I dont own, Sangers is slightly orangey in comparison to Drench, with a sheer finish. I likey. 

 

MAC - gotta have a MAC red in there somewhere right!

Ruby Woo. Bloody gorgeous.

A faultless matte red. True blue toned Stunning. 'Nuff Said.

 

I'd like to point out theres about another 4/5 reds I own which I haven't included.

Love a red lippie me
