The Red Lip Effect

I think we can technically consider lip stick as an accessory. Actually...the ultimate accessory. Classic red lips have made a grand comeback and pushed lip gloss out of the way for a minute. Everyone has the perfect red lipstick or is at least looking for one. I put together my top picks above and I love that there is a wide spectrum in the prices. Its pretty hard to find the perfect red for your skin tone but once you find it, its worth the buy.

Rihanna and Scarlet Johanson never hit the streets without their red lips. Rihanna was seen on the red carpet with this fabulous layered pearl necklace and of course the red lips. I admit..her look is an acquired taste...but i like it. Scarlet on the other hand keeps it classy all the time. Her sophisticated style is well complimented by her red lips. Her picture below is from the Dolce and Gabbana cosmetics ad. Purchase your fave at www.sephora.com. Click the title of this post to check out Rihanna's lizard skin Balenciaga clutch!

Cool graphics Nina! I live for a red lip, but Rihanna needs to sit her FASH ASS down! The hooker gloves and nails, gaudy necklaces, ridiculous haircut and HEAVY makeup have all got to go...ugh...I wish I could quit her!
