Red lipstick is ugly!!!!!

[Schmetterling]

I do not use red lipstick. But there are a lot of girls who look great with that kind of color

 

[AppleDiva]

I do not like red lipstick, but it looks nice on some ppl.

 

[Simply Elegant]

I think that's kind of pointless. I like red lipstick but save it for more formal occasions.

I want to wear Red Lipstick but I am so scared because I have full lips, Should I still go for it?

 

[Beauty Mark]

Yes! At least give it a try at Sephora or MAC. You can always wipe it off

Red lipstick is a classic look but I have yet to find a shade that looks good on me.

I recently bought Lady Danger, the brightest l/s I now own. I'm desperate for the confidence to wear it! I LOVE red lipstick on other people, I always think it looks incredible

Absolutely! Red is gorgeous on full lips. It is all about comfort level though, it will never look right to you unless you are comfortable with color.

I used to be one of those people who hated red lipstick because I thought it looked insanely tacky. Then I realized it only looks insanely tacky on us Finnish people [because most of us have this sorta grey-ish transparent skin with red undertones and it only looks good color-wise with a good foundation].

Since I started going to these make-up forums I realized one of the most attractive things I know is people who can rock red lipstick.

I couldn't agree more! I love red lipstick, though I do allow that it can be ugly if sloppily applied. You've almost gotta use liner to get it right, and I think red works best on fuller lips, too.
I'm NW15; brunette; green eyes, full lips, and the world goes crazy when I wear Ruby Woo!

I think more women should try it!

I love red lipstick and have more tubes of red than one person should be allowed to have. I rocked it when I was younger and 15 years later, I'm rocking it again. My mission in life has always seemed to be to find the perfect red. I have found many great ones along the way but I'm always looking for something better. There are many days when all I wear is red lipstick and it always picks me up and makes me feel better.

I´m all about red lips...And pretty much dark or bold lips in general. I think it is more flattering to actually have a mouth in your face, hehehe. BTW, I think nude lips are downright-godawful ugly, but you don´t see me trashing everybody who wears it, do you? Nude lips are a trend, and I respect it; it´s not because I don´t like something, that I will despise everybody who does. For the girls who critisize red lips with such ardor: get some confidence, stop envying the girls who wear it, and get a life.

^^You're right, nude lips are a trend, popularized by Jennifer Lopez. Not everyone looks like her, and not everyone has her skintone. As a result, some people look awful in it, yet adore wearing colors such as Myth l/s. It is really sad, because you hand them M.A.C Red, and they look absolutely amazing in it, but as soon as they put it on, it's "OH NO"S!!!! My husband thinks I look like a prostitute!" And then, back they go to the No Lips Nation.

I think red lipstick is amazing. It exudes such confidence, such sexiness, such glamour (Gwen Stefani anyone?). Pale skin or tan skin, there is a red for everyone. Plus, in my opinion, it POPS against anyone who wears it (it's also the reason why people shy away from it). One has to have the confidence to go with red lips, otherwise they're wearing it all wrong.

I think red lips exudes confidence and style.

For you complexion, I would try that Lady Danger with a black dress made of a material such as velvet for an evening look. That combination would be gorgeous, epecially with a nice bronze eyeshadow combination that is smoky.
