Looks Over Books: Red Lipstick!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Maine chapter.



Try bringing back the classic/elegant red lipstick look to make your face pop! The attitude held behind the red lips can be a confident boost and demure femininity that goes great with almost any outfit. Red is a “loud” color so make sure that when wearing these lipsticks that you are aware of the tone of your skin!

 

Miss Mackenzie Murphy’s “Looks Over Books” bold red lipstick is the perfect confident facial cosmetic. Mackenzie is wearing a brighter red that works withher light skin tone and ties it down with a maroon scarf and black boots to give the look a secure, strong, and bold approach.  Also, its important to keep in mind that the boldness of the red lips will be taken back if other facial components are over the top, so keep your eye makeup simple if you want your lips stand out!
