I Love My Russian

I love my Russian-Russian Red that is. “Russian Red” by MAC is a deep matte shade, is the company’s top red lipstick. The hue launched in the 80s, and even though trends have come and gone Russian Red has never had a recession.

A vibrant red mouth is classic yet current, and never fails to look downright amazing.

Tips on how to apply Red Lipstick
* Moisturize lips
* Blot with a tissue
* Nude the lips with foundation, concealer or face powder
* Use a finely sharpened red lip liner and fill the entire lips before layering your lipstick
* Apply complimentary red lipstick
* Using a flat brush, grab a bit of concealer to clean up the smudges, then powder the edges

  1. Very pretty, I love the idea of red lipstick but it doesn't look great on me - Viva Glam IV kinda works though...
