Why I Love Lipstick

You are already the beautiful so just have fun with your beauty.

I love lipstick.

If I could only choose one make-up product to wear it is always going to be lipstick.

Yet, in loving lipstick over the last few years I became stuck in a rut. I only wore the same two shades - a neutral brown pink and a deep red with a touch of you guessed it brown for special occasions. I am shuddering!!!! Why??? 

Then Fox In Flats style dare came along, a fashion photo challenge to wear and try new styles and trends with fashion and with your makeup. Orange lipstick, bright pink lipstick, red lipstick have all been on the list. 

I wore and I fell in love.

Fresh, vibrant, beautiful and fun. Different shades where changing my look all with a simple swipe of colour.

I have not touched my old lipsticks since. 

I am now a lipstick queen who loves nothing more then to try new colours. It has made me feel pretty, on trend, and womanly and there is nothing wrong with feeling all three of these. Yes please!

Lipstick, all sorts and types from gloss, to vibrant, to pale and pastel and just the down right pretty are beautiful. 

Go on change up that lipstick, it the only way to go. You will feel alive.

Lipstick Fun.

I love lipstick.

Bright, soft, glossy, matte, sparkly, moist, kissable, plump, pretty and more.

This month I have been daring myself in Fox In Flats #FABruary style challenge to try or revamp my look. I am loving it.

I have found myself peering into my wardrobe and make up box everyday looking for what items or colours I can match together to feel glam, stylish and fresh = so much fun.

Yet day 12 brought "orange lipstick!" - Ewww I thought. I don't do orange at all.
Bravely I went through the lipsticks I owned and found a coral orange lip stain and a orange lip gloss that was part of one of those 4 colour lip gloss packs you get given.

I cringed and then painted my lips.

What??? Ta da! I was instantly in love. What a shade and what a fresh look.

This is what a style challenge is all about. Getting you out of comfort zones and finding new colours and looks to do just that - refresh your same old, same old look.

Thanks to this challenge I have fallen head over heels for orange lipstick and also a bright pink shade that I would never ever wear until now when I went bright for Day 10.
These will now be my same old, same old fresh looks.

You so have to be brave like me and try a new shade.

Lipstick is beautiful.

MY BEST LIPSTICK TIP: To get the best out of your lipstick colour make sure you match your lipstick tone to the colour tones of what you have chosen to wear and and keep in mind what best suits your skin tone i.e. cool or warm. You may want to try a few different coloured clothes to get the best match or just keep it simple by wearing black or white to start.
