I have somewhat of an obsession with red lips. I just love them! It must be the dancer in me. At a young age and also into my "professional" dancing career I was required to sport the hue. I went through a phase in high school where I hated makeup and thought even just a little was too much. Somewhere between college and graduation I learned to embrace makeup, with special regard for the red lip. I feel like it's so classic, and you can look immediately pulled together / more done-up when you have a red lip. You don't need much else. You can pump it up with other makeup for a dramatic night out on the town or leave the rest of your look pretty natural and it can be casual as well. One place I haven't ventured to wear the red lip is work. I just . . can't do it. I save it for off-duty hours (;
The shade that I have been sporting most as of late is 'Love That Red' by Revlon. 'Ruby Woo' by Mac is another one of my faves.
My favorite red lipstick celebrity, Gwen Stefani:
