I hate really red lipstick

I really love the cherry red shade Dior used on the runway - it's so fresh!

I love red lipstick I think it is very classic it reminds me of black cocktail dresses and pearls. I have to agree though it is always hard to find the right shade and then apply it. I'm on a mission!!!

Im still undecided about my skin tone.. I always doubt myself when I pick one. I'm leaning towards warm or neutral? Someone will have to help me out with it..

I deinitely have a warm skin tone - I'll see what I can find

@Lauren, It's really all about finding the right shade for you. You'll have to figure out if you have cooler or warmer skin tone.

Cool skin tone - looks better with silver jewelry - find red with a little more blue pigment/undertone
Warm skin tone - looks better with gold jewelry - find red with a little more orange pigment/undertone

Of course, if you have neutral skin tone, you'll look good in anything! :)

I remember this trend from when I was very little, and I used to tell my mom not to wear it because I didn't like it. Over the past few years however, I've started loving this trend! I think it looks so classic! But you're right Lauren, the wrong shade could offset the color in your face, and result in the skin looking quite blotchy. Also, with red, you have to make sure there is no bleeding--you don't want to look like the bride of Frankenstein. I particularly love how Gucci and Dior did the red lips.

I love this trend, but when I try it I always feel like my face looks blotchy (as if the red pigments in my face are more pronounced.)
