The Perfect Red Lippy

"Say Hello to my Little friend"
 This is Ruby Woo, She is a  Luscious and vibrant Matte Red Lipstick from M.A.C cosmetics

Every woman should have the perfect red lipstick, it is one of the finer pleasures we get to enjoy as women and this little gem is the one for me, but it isnt always easy to find the perfect red lippy, it is comparable only to finding the perfect man when its wrong its oh so wrong, but when its right, well... You just know when you've found "The One". I have to admit I've been known on occasion to stray from Ruby though, when I want to leave the Matte world behind for more glossy deliciousness.

My Top 5 list is:

  1. M.A.C - Ruby Woo  (Matte-bluish red)
  2. Clarins - Passion 350 ( Satin-dark bluish red)
  3. L'oreal Colour Riche Star Secrets - Penelope Red 710 (Satin-orange red)
  4. M.A.C - Mac Red ( Satin- Blue based red)
  5. Revlon Chrome de La chrome - Berry flash 385 (Metallic-berry red)


So a few Tips for finding the perfect red lippy ...
  • Work out if you have a cool or warm complexion  Click here to find out. This is very important as knowing the undertones of your complexion cuts out a lot of work looking for shades that are wrong for you.
  • If you have a warm complexion you will be looking for a warm based red, orange or brown undertones.
  • If you have a cool complexion you will be looking for a blue or pink based red.
  • Lipstick finishes, there are loads of different finishes when getting started on red lipstick its best to stick with the basics here a few
             -Matte- looks very velvety, perfect for
             vintage looks, looks best on medium to full
             lips
             - Satin- a gorgeous silky lipstick suitable for
             any style, looks great on all lips,
             -Gloss, gives a juicy look to lips great on all
             lips but helps small lips look fuller
             -Sheer tint-a translucent colour wash, great
             for beginners

  • Decide on your price range, red lippies can range from as little as $10  to upwards of $50-$60 you need to decide what your comfortable paying and can afford.
  • This is the best part GO SHOPPING!!! Take a girlfriend with you and try before you buy! Shes more likely to give you an honest opinion than the lady on the counter :)
Last little Tip: If you are a little shy or perhaps demure deliciousness start small, go for a sheer tint or gloss and work your way up to the Ruby Woos. The more comfortable you feel wearing your Red Lippy, the more confident you will appear.

Now you know your complexion tone, the great news is that you can apply this to all colours of lipstick cos if you can get Red right the rest is simple :)

Hello and Welcome!


Today has been well incredible, the fashion at the moment in mainstream stores is making my heart weak for wanting!! My wish list is getting far too big!....BUT one of the highlights of my window shopping was when I found THE most Amazing Shoes today, peeptoe of course...hehe... Black Suede (will Post a pic soon of them), also came in a vibrant Teal and almost put both on Layby but decided to be responsible and just put one aside, these shoes have extremely high heels but are incredibly easy to walk in and comfortable i strutted around the store in them like a proud peacock or Mick Jagger, I'm SOO excited to get them thanks you Hannahs and only $79.95!!, So i walked out heart all a flutter at the prospect of new shoes very soon and i walked into the House of G ( Glassons) and fell madly inlove with a new wallet.....Behold my Pretty!!
Today was a very good day :)
