New Trend: Bright Red Lips

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

Red lipstick = bold and hot. Nothing draws attention quicker to your pretty face than daring, powerful, elegant classic red lipstick. Anyone can sport red lipstick. It’s a timeless classic that never goes out of style. Because red lipstick is such a bold statement, it looks best on a clean face with minimal makeup. The key to wearing red lipstick is finding the best shade to complement your complexion. 

Don’t be afraid to blend. If your red lips are too dark, try toning it down with a lighter lipstick. If they’re too light, gently apply a slightly darker color. Mix and match colors until you create a radiant red that feels completely “you.” With this and every style, it’s about confidence. So ladies, crank up the heat and clock on a coat of bold crimson!
