Ed obsession under $10: The perfect red

I’ve shied away from the classic red lip for a while now, sticking to my trusty makeup bag full of lip balms, glosses and stains. That is, until I made my pre-New Year’s beauty resolution: Rock red lips at holiday parties this season. I’ve got a signature style (tomboy chic meets French gamine), so why not have a signature beauty look?
 

Something about a bold red lip always felt slightly clown-y to me, until I sat down with GL’s beauty editor Kelsey to sift through zillions of tubes in our beauty closet. Kels helped me pick out my new fave shade: Maybelline’s Are you Red-dy, a perfect cherry red with blueish undertones that secretly whiten my smile. It’s probably the least intimidating red out there—a great starter red. One layer gives you a swipe of quick color, but you can apply more for a brighter effect. It’s also super moisturizing and miraculously didn’t end up all over my face, even hours later.

 

This universal shade is sure to be flattering on all skin tones. Can you guess what I’m wearing tonight?

I like my BGF,And everyone is saying he likes me, but he has a gf. Now im getting his # Now what should i do, just be friends or tell him i like him? Thanks Xoxo Smile


Hey girl,

If he has a girlfriend, you can't do anything while they're together, even if you like him and other people think he might like you back. Just stay friends for now and if they do break up in the future, you can talk to him about it then if you still like him.

MOD! Will I have to use lip liner with this lipstick?

 

 

Hey! Lipliner is always optional Smile it would be perfectly fine to wear lipstick without it.

I can NEVER rock red lips. They just don't look good on me! I just put on this pretty berry magenta shade that's not over the top.
