How comfortable is this to wear, Med? I've prejudices against lipcremes because I can't stand that slippery but dry feeling on the lips. How is this one?
I went to the Christmas Market with a friend yesterday (and Mockingjay afterwards) and basically did the same look like earlier this week, but this time with Deeply Adored. DA was my fave red for a long time, but I think I like Riri Woo better now! It was quite interesting to see how the look was changed just because of the slightly different red lipstick.
I fell off the red wagon today, because I wore a white shirt with a grey and purple pattern. I did a silvery-lilac eye with it, was totally stumped with which red lipstick it wood like good and chose Chanel Antigone instead.
Btw, what are you guys thinking about the new Pantone colour of the year? Marsala?
I wore Kinky with Red Enriched lip pencil on Wednesday and am so sad that I cannot BU Kinky (I know what I said about backups, but...) and no makeup at all yesterday (bad allergy issue) but today I am making up for it. FOTD: FACE: Stila Natural Finish Oil Free Foundation, H MAC Studio Finish Concealer, NW40, under eyes L'Oreal True Match Concealer stick, N6-7-8, on dark spots set concealer with silica powder under eyes EL Double Matte Powder, Deep MAC Animal Instinct on cheeks EYES: WnW Fergie eye primer, shimmer Stila In the Light palette, Gilded Gold outer lid, Luster on center lid, Bubbly on inner 1/3 of lid, Sandstone in crease, Bare under brow bone Stila Smudgestick, Damsel, on lower lashline, MAC Feline upper lashline, slightly winged Rimmel London GlamEyes mascara, Extreme Black, 2 coats LIPS: MAC lip pencil, Red Enriched Stila Stay All Day liquid lipstick, Fiery This on top of a Sephora lip balm that is so nice under these drying lippes. It comes in a tube. It is well worn so I can't tell the name of it.

Thank youuu!! I had a pretty good day!! thanks for all your wishes!!!!Thank you Med! I'll have to pm HOB then and ask about the reviving potion.
I'm quite good again - a few twinges from time to time, but I'm even back at my fitness class.
To read all the raves about Rouge Parade is pretty agonizing, tbh! Even if I'd want to splurge, it's quite impossible to get over here by now - all sold out. But I saw Elegant's pics in the Ultimate Lipstick thread and fell in love with Audacious, so maybe that'll be 'my' Parade.
Hey, and I love that effect of MU on ourselves - putting something on and going!
We'll be a group of people in Vienna - mostly hubby's friends - and we'll see. I love the city, and hope we'll have a nice dinner somewhere. We'll also go to the opera - not my cup of tea, but I'm willing to broaden my views and it'll definitely be an experience!
Thank you Katred! If you go back a bit in this thread you'll see some funny posts by me, written 'under the influence'. My hubby said I sounded drunk all the time, but I didn't care! They definitely gave me the good stuff!
Thank you Med! *smooches*
I'll definitely be the odd one out over Christmas and NYE - I always wear red then. It's tradition!
Happy Birthday V! Hope it was a good one!
Oh, that sounds like such a pretty look! I've to copy it at some point. I tend to wear taupes with either peaches or purples and never tried it with red. Thank you! I always love to get new ideas about how to combine colours and products in this thread!

Exactly! I love rediscovering things that had slipped my attention for a while.
I'm always worried with liquid lipstick that it'll be too dry for me. I can't believe I haven't tried this yet, but my luck hasn't been great thus far.
Antigone is kind of red. I'd say it counts. I did a super-basic look today, but sort of a classic red lip thing: Face: UD Naked Skin 1.0 Dior Star concealer 010 Blush from Armani's Neo-Noir palette Bars Nico blush Eyes: Rouge Bunny Rouge Gracious Arasari (pinky beige); all over mobile lid RBR Sweet Dust Seriema (dusty light grey mauve taupe) in the crease Highlight shade from Armani Neo-Noir palette Illamasqua precision gel liner (went for that intense black winged look) Hourglass Film Noir mascara Lips: Rouge d'Armani 404 (bright shimmery poppy red) I didn't end up doing much today, but I kind of wish I had. I find this sort of retro pinup kind of look always make me feel confident.Thank you Med! I'll have to pm HOB then and ask about the reviving potion.

Antigone is kind of red. I'd say it counts. Totally---sheer red!!!
I did a super-basic look today, but sort of a classic red lip thing:
Face:
UD Naked Skin 1.0
Dior Star concealer 010
Blush from Armani's Neo-Noir palette
Bars Nico blush
Eyes:
Rouge Bunny Rouge Gracious Arasari (pinky beige); all over mobile lid
RBR Sweet Dust Seriema (dusty light grey mauve taupe) in the crease
Highlight shade from Armani Neo-Noir palette
Illamasqua precision gel liner (went for that intense black winged look)
Hourglass Film Noir mascara
Lips:
Rouge d'Armani 404 (bright shimmery poppy red)
I didn't end up doing much today, but I kind of wish I had. I find this sort of retro pinup kind of look always make me feel confident.
Sounds Nice. I like it!!!
@Medgal: I LOVE my Stila liquid lipsticks. My fave is Beso but I love Fiery and Fioreas well. Those three I can wear as is, but I need liners with and gloss with a couple of them (this is a color issue, not a formula issue). I put on a light layer of balm on before, let it set for a few seconds and then apply. Mine lasted through breakfast, lunch and a long meeting today. Very minimal transfer and long-wearing color. I had pizza for dinner and still have red lips.

Nothing wrong with that! What's the point of coming up with a great look if you don't repeat it. I'm thinking of reusing this one, since I know we're going out to a dinner party tomorrow.Well, I liked yesterday's look so much that I totally repeated it today!I thought I'd change lipsticks at some point, but I never got around to it.
The best thing about posting these looks for me is that it forces me to write down what I've used, rather than just hoping that I'll remember. Of course, now that I look at it, I did forget that I used Becca Beach Tint in "Fig" as a base colour on my cheeks... And actually I really like the way the subtle cheek colour/ glow turned out today. Now I want to add to my Beach Tint collection...

Still need to catch up on the thread but I wanted to post my red lip of the day, UD Revolution lipstick in F-Bomb. I've been wanting to try it and got a mini tube with one of my sephora orders. I really liked it. I was bared faced today for an early doctor appointment. Red lipstick made me look halfway decent. Bon weekend!

I wore runaway red today. It was my first red I fell in love with. I still love it. It was a pretty nice formula too.

Truer words were ever spoken!!!! It's only recently that I've purchased anything from Becca------ 4 Becca Highlighters & I really love all but one them. I'm afraid to get
attached to yet another brand. Good luck resisting more Beach Tints---but then why should you?

That is a good one Pretty. I feel like I could wear a different red lipstick everyday for a month without repeating. I don't say this proudly ***hangs head in shame.
