LOL @ aziajs , true that's not really a good look ... But I mean GlamYOURUs , you are saying it as a compliment so thanks still .
And thanks Miss.FlirtyDiva & Rudyru !! Even though I can't stand my complexion , I wish I was either darker or lighter . I'm always so confused and in the middle of everything lol . That's why I always pick colors and then I'm like WTF !!!!!!!!
I really do like this color on you! It looks very runway...all it needs is some tweaking and it'll be fab. Post some pics when you try it again pretty please?
thanks . but i don't think i'll try it again , it's giving me a headache , i'm bringing it back LOL . another one of my lip issues aside from being quite voluptuous , the top lip is darker than the bottom one & that always makes things more complicated .
^^I have the same issue with my lips but I totally rock that Gladiola. I guess you just have to be comfortable wearing colours that are out there. I have a love affair with hot pink/bright pink lipsticks and I think they contrast nicely with my dark skin

To each their own. I wasn't talking about her hot mess with the green hair and what not. She was made to represent the colors in that collection as well as a sweet cupcake.
However, as someone mentioned, this color looks so runway on you. Which is the point I was trying to make. You should do the eyes smokey, add some falsies for drama and top of the color with a clear gloss in the center, imagine how hot that would be!

Oooh....I absolutely love bright lips on brown girls too! We should have a Bright Lips forBrown Girls FOTD week. That would be awesome.

Yup...or you could go all minimalist and do sheer eyes with a pop of color on the cheek. Hmmm...I think I want to do this today!

I actually just got this yesterday and LOVE it!! I'm NC45 and LOVE bold lips! Put it on and blot it down to a stain if you are a bit reserved about wearing it full force, or apply it to you bottom lip and press your lips together. But I think its a fab color especially now that we're coming into spring. People always stare when I wear bold lips (or shadows for that matter, I'm in a small town) but I like to think they're thinking "Damn, I wish I was bold enough to pull that off!" LOL
Make it work girl!
I freakin' LOVE Gladiola!!!! I'm wearing it here with NYX Fuschia Lip Liner. My foundation is a bit wacky with all the Talc and the camera flash, but I love this look!
