How do you feel about a little orange-red lipstick in your makeup bag? I’m loving the MAC version I have and find myself wearing it all the time! (I was wearing it here at Alt). Whenever I’m too lazy to dress up I put on bright lipstick and instantly feel cute. I’d love to try that Revlon version as well, such a great drugstore version.

Funny backstory: My father has worked for Revlon for 30 years! We would get huge boxes full of makeup for Christmas from his work every year filled with the most random cosmetics and crazy colors. It was wasted on my sisters and I since we didn’t wear makeup at all until college (I think it’s an east coast thing?). I remember seeing bright lipsticks and thinking, “Who on earth would wear this ridiculous color?!?”. HA! I have daydreams about that huge box. What goodies were inside that we passed up?!?

Could you pull off one of these bold orange-red colors? Are you into bright lipsticks right now too?
