I have two favorite reds, and both of them are by MAC. They're actually quite similar to each other, however, russian red is a little darker red with a brown undertone whereas ruby woo is a brighter red with an orange undertone. Ruby Woo is one of MAC's most popular lip colors and a definite must in a girls lipstick collection. If you're looking for a good everyday red Ruby Woo is the perfect choice, but if you need a darker, classier tone for a fancy dinner or a night out you might want to opt for Russian Red instead. Both are matte lipsticks which give a great finish, but it's best if you wear a lip primer underneath to make the application a tad smoother. Also, I prefer to use MAC's lipliner in "Cherry" with either one of these lipsticks. The complete MAC lipstick collection can be viewed and purchased here.

 I love pink lipsticks, because there is such a huge range and you can wear a shade of pink on nearly every occasion. MAC's Candy Yum Yum and Pink Plaid are both matte finishes. Candy Yum Yum is a very bright, neon pink that looks great on a summer day if you have a little tan. Pink Plaid is a classy, nuder shade of pink which looks really nice if you don't want too much attention on the lips and if you want to look a bit more sophisticated (it actually even makes me look a bit older. Like I'm about to go pay my taxes. Or whatever it is adults do). My last MAC lipstick -and most recent lip purchase- is Pink Nouveau. This lip color is the most beautiful barbie pink that gives your face a beautiful finish. It's a satin finish which means it's really smooth and moisturizing with a great coverage. Sorbet is my first Revlon lip butter, which I had heard so many people rave about I simply had to see what all the fuss was about. I absolutely love the color, which is almost a fuchsia pink. It's not as pigmented as the MAC lipsticks but it's a lot thinner and feels more like a balm than a lipstick (which is probably why it's called a lip butter) but still gives great coverage and looks beautiful for both a day and a night look. Revlon's Lip Butter can be viewed and purchased here.

Finally, there's two bronze lipsticks I like to use. Bronze colors are great for a subtle finish and work with pretty much every look. The first color is "Think Bronze" by Clinique, with is a bronze with a gold shimmer and a beige/pink undertone. I love this color if I'm wearing a color red or pink that really doesn't match with any of my pink and red lipsticks but I don't want to walk around with 'naked lips'. The last color is my collection is "True" by Victoria's Secret which is a slightly more pink shade than Clinique's lippy. Both of these colors aren't as pigmented as the MAC ones and give a slightly more transparent coverage, but they're both very moisturizing and shimmery. And Lord knows us girls like us some shimmer.

So there you have it, a little look into my favorite lippies! I hope it was helpful for some, entertaining for others, and maybe even both! 

Hugs and Kisses!
