Isn't this graphic cute?
I'm a recent addict. I have about 25 lipsticks and the majority of them are bold colors. I've been excited to wear a dark, bold, statement lip since the seasons changed. There's something about a dark, sultry lip and winged black liner that screams winter (opposed to oranges and corals and bright pinks of summer.)
Don't forget that dark lips are on trend this fall/winter!
I've been on the hunt for a brown-red lipstick ever since I got my hands on Revlon's Lip Butter in Red Velvet. I came across a few ideas: Revlon's Black Cherry and Covergirl's Enamor. Then I watched a youtube video that changed my life. The lovely Farah Dhukai applied a mixture of Mac's Russian Red and Mac's Diva (All on top of Mac's currant lipliner.) I knew I had to have it.
And by it, I mean a dupe.
If you Google Search 'Mac Diva Dupe' you get nothing. I knew I had to do some more research. I looked at swatches of a few lipstick brands, and I found myself at my favorite ultra cheap lipstick brand: Wet n Wild. I caught sight of the beauty that is Cherry Bomb.
Cherry Bomb is perfection. It is without flaw. It's an awesome darkened red-burgundy that is insanely pigmented. A little goes a long way. This also looks amazing with an ombre effect. Dab a little of a lighter red like Wet n Wild's 'Stoplight Red' or Covergirl's 'Hot' in the center of your lips for a fashionable red lip. Or you can just dab it on and use it as a stain.
It looks amazing on everyone. Every skin tone, every hair color.
This photo doesn't do it much justice, but it's a deep, creamy red-brown with a creme finish. Go pick some up! It's only two bucks.
Thank you for your post! Have just ordered this as there is no way I can afford the real thing :) x
