RED LIPSTICKS FOR HOLIDAY 2013 MY PICKS

Hola, hola!!!
I had promised for this post some time back. I love Red lipsicks is no secret to those who read my blog. But I surprised even myself when I started digging out my red lipstick stash for this post. I have 6 of these now and I know atleast 3 more than I am lusting. But thankfully after doing this post I have convinced myself to not buy another Red Lipstick until I finish atleast one of this. I know not gonna happen. But still atleast it will stop me from buying the latest M.A.C retro matte ones.
So lets begin. I will go from lightest to darkest.

with flash

in natural light

1.REVLON CANDY APPLE: I love this one. Okay this is going to be a common line for all the lipsticks. I love this because its my "no attention seeker" / "day time"Red lipstick. Its juicy and moisturizing and makes the lips look plump. I've had many asking me what lipstick it is. Here is the swatch and how it looks on me. I have reviewed it HERE

2. MAYBELLINE MAT 4: This is the latest addition to my stash. I bought it for the matte effect, but its not matte by any means. But I still love it ( get many compliments whenever I have applied this,, so gotta love it). Jokes apart, I like how it lifts up the entire face and it a perfect balance between blue and orange undertone. Its neither too dark not too light. Here is the  FOTD using this lipstick. You can read a detailed review HERE

3. MAYBELLINE COLOR SENSATIONAL LIPSTICK IN FATAL RED: I got this lipstick after Lisa Eldridge recommended it in one of her YOU TUBE videos. This and one another one from REVLON Matte called REALLY RED. Girls please if any of you know where I can buy it from in INDIA please let me know. I lost mine ( very sad face) and cant find it now anywhere to repurchase.
Anyways back to Fatal Red I like this one because its not a  very fiery red, next to other red lipsticks it looks more orange. It suits Indian complexion well. Read review HERE

4. COLORBAR HEARTS AND TARTS: I have recently reviewed this lipstick, and it honestly hasnt been that long since I have bought it. But its the mattest if that is even a word) red lipstick I have. Its not too drying on the lips and is perfect for my dry lips, although exfoliation is highly recommended.You can read the detailed review along with HERE

5. RIMMEL LASTING FINISH BY KATE MOSS NO. 11: This is the most "hatke" Red, its bordering on maroon but appears on the red side on my lips. This is going to be my pick for the fall season among the reds I own. Here is the FOTD using this lipstick. You can read the detailed review HERE. And for the FOTD you can read the detailed pictorial HERE .

6. L'OREAL INFALLIBLE LIPSTICK IN REFINED RUBY: This is hands down the most beautiful RED lipstick I have or want, I love it over M.A.C Russian Red and Ruby Woo . Yes you heard it right. I have swatched it side by side with those MAC. lipsticks but still loved this one more that is why they havent made an entry yet into my vanity. HERE is the review and FOTD using this favorite.

MAYBELLINE MAT 4 LIPSTICK REVIEW AND SWATCH AND LOTD

Hello everyone,
If you are reading this post chances are you already know what this post is about, but what you dont know is that as soon as I am done with this post I shall start work on my next post wherein I shall be sharing all my 4-5 red lipsticks in one post. Since this is my latest Red Lippie purchase I wanted to share the review in detail for this one.
Aww shucks! no I have more to go. I got another one. But you get the jest. I shall soon be doing a red lipsticks post. So look out for that if you love Red lipsticks.
So here comes my review for this one.

MAYBELLINE MAT 4 REVIEW

I was indeed excited when I knew Maybelline is launching neon bold and matte lipsticks. It was more than I could have asked, I  would have been happy be just with the VIVIDS range launching here. But the reviews left me hanging in the middle.
So I decided to go ahead and get these for myself. Okies I am on a blabbering streak. Lets begin the review shall we?

MAYBELLINE MAT 4 REVIEW

I got it for INR 375

I loved the adorable packaging it has a soft matte finish on the cap with a silver cylindrical tube. The cap has neon orange/red color.

MAYBELLINE MAT 4 REVIEW

Once I opened it The tip was broken and yes I opened it with care, I think it was packaged loose, i.e..the tube wasn't twisted all the way, so when and of you buy this one be extra careful.

Once I opened it I was happy it wasn't a "red" red lipstick more of a orange lipstick with red undertones.

MAYBELLINE MAT 4 REVIEW

The texture is smooth it glided on to the lips without any tugging and pulling. The matte part of the texture is quiet confusing actually, no confusion there its not matte at all, but why are they being promoted as matte?

MAYBELLINE MAT 4 REVIEW

I would have loved for them to be matte! Though after using this one I am not complaining. This is a bold lipstick which is not drying at all infact its very hydrating on the lips.

MAYBELLINE MAT 4 REVIEW

 I swiped it twice and thrice on my lips to get the desired color. So this lipstick  is not exactly very pigmented, its rather sheer but easily buildable which is again a plus as I can build up the color or use it lightly as well. Here I have swatched it against Maybelline's FATAL RED so you can see how much orange it is compared to FATAL RED .

MAYBELLINE MAT 4 REVIEW

 And I loved the loved loved the color. It will flatter Indian skin tones. 

The staying power also amazed me along with the bold color. It was pretty impressive, it stayed a good 5 hours on my lips, with light feathering.
So thumbs up to Maybelline for the awesome blossom BOLD Lipsticks!
Final word go grab these for the bold colors and awesome staying power ,the colors will not disappoint you!
So here is the LOTD with this lipstick.
