Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left-side brains. I knew I wouldn't forget you and so I went and let you blow my mind.

I used to hate bright and glossy lips because I have very big (huuuge, in fact) and curvy lips. So whenever people make a complement about my lips I was just standing there and, "Pfft yeah so you have thin lips what do you know about big lips!?" I avoided bright lips until my friend challenged me, he told me, "Lo sumpah kalo sampe pake lipstik merah gue tabok!" Guess what, I remember I bought a red Revlon lipstick and wore it to his wedding the next day (it was 3 years ago).

And I was like, "Dude, I feel good! Tabok me if you can."

So this special entry is for my good friend Qintara.. the one who adore my lips because she thinks her very sexy and Angelina-esque's lips aren't good enough for bold colors. Been there. In fact she's just too timid to wear bold colors :)

I am no make-up expert and I don't like talking about make-ups, so won't babbling about it. These are my favourite lipstick:
  • Maybelline 645 Red Revival: Although it's a very bold red, I don't mind wearing it during daytime or on a daily basis but only if I am feeling good that way.
  • Christian Dior 764 Violet Solstice: This is an evening-and-kondangan lipstick, but I began to wear this during day time and I would say this lipstick is something that will boost my confidence if I'm not in a good mood. Please keep in mind, if you see me with this color at day time, watch out! It's a valid indicator that I am in bad mood.
  • Revlon 030 Moistly Mocha: Been wearing this color for about 4 years. I would say this is (and Maybelline 936 Honey Ginger) my favourite daily use.
  • (Not in the photo): Body Shop Born Lippy Passionberry from Mas Pacar. Hourly use. :P
Just some tips, if you want to wear red or bold lipstick, please do consider these (so these are the 5 basic rules for me. If you're disobey this rules, you're just a teenager who wears bold lipstick):
  • If you're going to be outdoors pick a softer shade.
  • Either your eyes or your lips. You can't do both.
  • Use lip liner that close to your natural lip color.
  • After applying, put your finger in your mouth, purse your lips around it then pull it out to remove excess color to avoid getting lipstick on your teeth.
  • Don't go too glossy. Stay matte or semi-matte. "ƒ(Disaster) = red lips, lip gloss, my eyes hurt"

So Qintara, you have very good and healthy lips. You can pick up that red, bright orange, pink, or purple shade of lipstick and go nuts! I recommend everyone give it a go too ;)

Have a nice weekend.

♥, Me.
