I love a bold lip. Day to day, I live for a nude pout, but a
bold lip adds something special. Red oozes elegance; a sexy Hollywood vixen
look. And pink, well pink is my weapon. I told my editor that wearing a bold
pink lip brightens the face when you’re feeling a bit dull/ill/rough from the
night before – I think it distracts from the eyes.
Berry lips are probably my favourite, though. M.A.C’s Deep
Attraction (discontinued. Sob), and Rebel (I think the deep colour works well
with darker skintones). A smooth, moisturised finish makes lips look fuller and
more pristine, which is why I am not a fan of the whole wine-stained lips
trend. Rather than pulling a look together, it dishevels it somewhat.
However, last week, on a whim, I picked up M.A.C’s Currant
lip liner (I know it’s “summer” but with this crazy weather I’m looking ahead
to autumn). It was too insatiably dark and gothic not to and I thought it would
be lovely to pop on and blend with a gloss for a light flush of colour. So I
thought since I have the perfect coloured liner and my gorgeous Lipstick Queen
velvet rope lipstick in entourage, I thought I would give it a whirl. I
moisturised my lips, put the lip liner all over my lips, blended and then
dabbed on the lipstick.
I’m still not a fan of this trend. I think it’s pretty risky
especially for A/W when lips can be at their most chapped. I’ll be leaving this
one to the models.
Love Keeks xo
