Lipstick Love!!

“Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin. That, or a kick-ass red lipstick.” Couldn’t agree more with Gwyneth Paltrow on this one. I personally swear by the lipstick, always have and always will. 🙂

And not just red. It can be anything from wine red to coral to light pink. You just got to find out what suits you best. And as for occasion, I tell you, you totally don’t need an occasion to don on lipstick. I can sit around the whole day at home wearing light pink and enliven the party in the evening wearing a wine red.

Of course you need to get your matte and the gloss and shimmer correct. A few quick tips to be kept in mind is that matte lipsticks are long lasting but they make the lips look thinner. So if you wanna give a fuller look to you lips, go for the glossy or the shimmer. Also there are cream lipsticks which are similar to matte but have more of moisture content.

But it is just not about knowing the right shades and hues. Looks can be ruined if your lips are dry or chipped. It is very important to take good care of your lips. The easiest thing to do is to drink lots of water. Together with that you can give extra care by applying a lip balm whenever not wearing lipstick to maintain soft lips. Read Lip Care.

Lipsticks just not only make you LOOK good but they make you FEEL good. It is a wonder, the amount of confidence that wearing a lipstick can fill you with. It can miraculously lift up your mood.

No doubt the quote by Marilyn Monroe goes, “I said pour yourself a drink, put on some lipstick and pull yourself together.” So girls don’t forget to put that thing called lipstick in your bag, the next time you leave your house because lipsticks are a gal’s best friend, well, a second to diamonds of course 😛 You never know when or where you might need a touch up.
