Want to feel sexy in red lipstick but feel it’s too intimidating? I hear ya! I usually would stay away from red lipstick because I always assumed that it’s not appealing on African-Americans. Well I recently learned that this is far from the truth. Scarlett red is in this holiday/winter season and if red lipstick is too daring for you, consider going the red lip gloss route.
Red lips has a classic appeal with a hint of drama. What I love most about a gloss is the range of formulas. If you’re looking for something that’s subtle, try a sheer formula or a richer gloss formula for added color.
