how to wear red lipstick, best red lipstick, burberry lip cover soft satin lipstick ruby

Like LBD (little black dress), every woman must own a red lipstick. I said it before and I’d say it again, it is sexy and fierce. Femme Fatale.

But then again, I can’t fault you if you find it intimidating. While I go all out vampy red running errands or cruisin’ around with the hub, I do tone it down when I’m at work in scrubs (okay, sometimes!).

For today’s post, I’m featuring a recent addition to my red lipstick madness a.k.a collection. The shade is Ruby from Burberry’s Lip Cover Soft Satin Lipstick line ($30, 3.5g/ .12 oz, Nordsrtrom). It’s a beautiful blue-based red that looks a tad darker from the tube but wears true to description on my lips. It glides easily and one swipe renders an enviable opaque coverage.

1. Line and fill lips with a lip liner, this helps with the wear time.

2. Apply lipstick with a brush or straight from the tube.

3. To mattify and intensify, cover lips with a thin sheet of tissue then lightly pat on translucent powder. Reapply red lipstick (you can repeat this step 2 or 3 times).

Easy peasy, sissy!
