Miranda+KerrI’ve developed a girl-crush on Miranda Kerr.  This happened because Miranda is not only a fashion icon, but because she’s a Red Lipstick devotee and recently gave me an idea.

The next time I find myself inside of Barneys or Neiman’s I am headed straight for the Chanel counter.

Lately I’ve been crushing on Miranda Kerr, it’s not because she’s gorgeous, but because she understands fashion and isn’t intimidated to wear Red Lipstick.  Her handsome husband also doesn’t mind, a bonus.
I love her effortless style, and the fact that she wears the items she loves more than once, a girl after my own heart. I’m also going stir crazy over her Givenchy Antigona Satchel Bag ($2405).

Keeping Your Red Lipstick From Turning – Makeup Tips

red-lipstick1How many times have you bought a new red shade only to have the color turn after a few hours? Lately that seems to be the case with my red lipstick choices.  I find it aggravating and asked the experts for help.

My friend Alphonse over at Musebeauty.pro says that when looking for a lip color, place it on your pointing finger tip. Press thumb against the middle of finger to have the blood rush to the tip. This will mimic a shade closer to one’s natural lips. Also applying lip color on the back of your hand has a different base than natural lip color, that is why it looks different or why the color changes.

I also noticed that depending on the lip pencil, the color would take another dramatic turn, leaving me with a not so perfect shade. Alphonse advised that to have the shade appear as a true color, the pencil should match as close as possible. To go darker is like mixing in another pigment and will create depth – not wrong or right.
