There’s no better way to look holiday party ready than painting your lips a pretty shade of red. Thing is, most girls shy away from the bright color 'cause they think they can’t pull it off.

The trick to wearing rouge lips is to pick the right shade. Colors can be divided into two groups: cool and warm. Cool shades are blue-based and include hues like cranberry. These shades look great on gals with fair skin. Warm reds are orange-based and look great on peachy and tan skin tones. We've got the best shades for your skin!

 
Fair-skinned femmes
Porcelain pretties should choose a pretty blue-pink hue. The color will go on darker and really make your kisser stand out.

Medium-skinned mamas
For this type of skin tone it's best to pick a red lipstick with an orange undertone. The color will appear brighter and more orangey, and make your pucker pop.

Darker-skinned dames
Chicas with dark skin can usually go both ways with color. You ladies look luscious in cool AND warm reds. It really depends on if you’ve got more of a pinky or orangey complexion. A cherry lipstick with pink undertones looks great on most gals with dark skin.

Hey, I have medium length hair with some layers and it's a medium thickness. Are there any cute and easy hairstyles i can do in the morning that don't require a lot of straightening or curling?? (I have a straightener, hot rollers and a curling iron but I don't really have much time in the morning) Thanks! Smile




My favorite thing to do in the morning is to pull my hair into a low side ponytail and use a curling texturizing product to give it some curls and texture. Its a cute easy look. Have fun! xoxo kerra

okayy im in girls show choir and for all our concerts we have to look nice and wear all black.whats some cute things i can do to reuse my outfits without looking the same for every concert?? and do you have some cute hair and clothes ideas to??




You could try to wear cute black pants one time and a black skirt another time. Also you could get a black sweater and also a black button up to wear different times. Also since black is such a classic look you could wear any jewelry and look good. Gold silver, anything. Have fun! xoxo kerra
