FOTD: Revlon Cherries in the Snow

Cherries int eh Snow -- such a classic fuchsia-red. Luscious!

 When I threw on this plum hoodie, I knew a soft pink like Revlon's Persian Melon wouldn't do, so I looked at the lipsticks in my quiver and there was Cherries in the Snow. This blue-toned red makes your teeth look brighter, and it works with my neutral skin.

Vivid Lips -- I toned them down a bit with a neutral lipstick

It really feels like a formal color to wear on your lips, so I toned it down with a bit of NYX lip stick in LaLa, which is a brownish nude.

Tip of the Day: Mixing lipstick can get you to the exact shade you want. And it's fun, like mixing paints!

Results:

As I didn't want to be messing with layering two lipsticks at work, I chose to take along Revlon Colorburst Lip butter in Sugar Plum for touch-ups during the day. This worked well, as Cherries in the Snow stained my lips and the color lasted about 2/3 of the day, so the Sugar Plum acted as a moisturizing gloss.

What kind of lip will I wear today?  Tune in tomorrow to find out!
