I Thought I Would Never Find It, But I DID!!!!



A Girls Quest For The Perfect RED Lip Color! 

I have admitted in the past that I am probably a lipoholic!

Lipoholic: One who can not pass a makeup counter without purchasing a new lipstick, or gloss, and usually both. This person can not have dry lips, their lips must have color, or a sheen, and feel moist at all times.

Yes, I made that up, but it is exactly what describes me.

In my addiction I have been on a quest for the perfect red lip color for me. I have truly looked for years. 

Those that know me, or have shopped with me, know I am always on the hunt for a red that will look good with my coloring without being too harsh.

Well, I am happy to announce I have found the perfect red lip color for me, finally!!

Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lip gloss…


GAME CHANGER

They describe this color as Red Carpet red! It is a gloss, but to be honest it is more like a semi-sheer lipstick.

It gives me plenty of coverage. It looks a bit orange in the image, but it is not orange base at all, or I would not wear it!! 

I fill in my lips with a lip liner first by Bobbi Brown (mauve), it is very close to my natural lip color, and then top it with this wonderful color for a red lip that is not too harsh.

Since I have spent years looking for a good  red that was not too harsh, trust me on this, you will love it.

Bare Minerals has another red that I might also try it is described as a watermelon red, and I do love that color so I think it is worth a try and at $18 it won’t break the bank.

It is called High Roller

I was just so excited to find this I had to share it with you all. If I find something that I love, you can bet I will be sharing it with my wonderful readers!

I have a couple more new to me products that I am happy with, more on those later. Be sure to check out these two colors if you are looking for a red lip color, you can thank me later Winking smile

  1. I can't tell you how many tubes of lip gloss I have, trying to find the perfect color - so great when one is just right! Happy Tuesday, Kathysue!

  2. Have you tried Jack Black lip balms? I just recently discovered these (Amazon, Sephora, maybe Ulta); they are wonderful. My lips have never felt so soft and moist. They are clear balms so no color but I put it on my lips before bed (and also use it during the day if needed).

    I love a blue red lip color. It's hard to find a good one, as you clearly know. I am not able to wear Bare Minerals face products (allergic) but might consider trying the lip product.

    Best wishes for 2015.
