I'm not really one for lippie in general. A bit of 8 hour cream, a sparkly gloss or a nude lipstick for special occasions normally is all I need in the lip department. But the other day a gorgeous shade of crimson red dripped into my desk. It looked absolutely stunning ( Fatal Dandy Givenchy Rouge Interdit) and I was intrigued. A quick slick on the lips and a walk to the shops got me more attention than when I left the bathroom with my skirt tucked into my knickers. But can red actually work as an everyday colouror or is it just for the evening?
Would I be brave enough to cope with a daily does of red? The 7 Day Lipstick Challenge was born. A different red every day for seven days, from high end to low end brands, and worn whether at events or slobbing out in jeans. (I'm allowed to remove it for the gym)
Will I be infused with a Dita-esque quality of living, or will I crumble at the firs wolf whistle? And the there's the lipstick on the teeth issue..
Check back tomorrow for Day 1!
