hi, hello.
Todays post is about my obsession with (mostly red) lipstick.
It may or may not be a massive problem.......for my bank account. :P
I spent a lot of my youth making sooooooooooooooo many make up mistakes, especially back in my obsessive goth days *shudder* But, one thing I did do right was pick up my first tube of Red Lipstick, it actually wasn't even mine. So thanks friend for leaving it at my house! I'd been wearing horrible cheap black lipstick A LOT back then, but I remember the first time I ballsed up and wore a striking red lip in public, it was like compliment central. They always say when something makes you feel good, keep doing it, well red lips was that thing, I guess its almost a signature of mine now.
Its a choice that i know a lot of Beauty people would gasp at, but its in my every day makeup routine.
I honestly just don't suit nudes/pinks etc, I'm so Ghostly white that red stands out so much better, especially with my generally darker eyes.
(Top Row: Lime Crime Velvetine- Red Velvet, ModelCO- Kitty [this is musky pink but it was free], Rimmel Acpocalypse- Stellar, Chanel Rouge Allure- 104 Passion, Kate Moss by Rimmel- 107 x2 [matte], Lime crime- Glamour 101, MAC- MAC red [satin], Revlon- 477 Black Cherry, Australis Velourlips- NY-CEE, elf Matte Lip Colour- RichRed, Second Row: Lime Crime- Styletto [this is Black mostly used for halloween], Maybeline Super Stay 14 Hr-065 Ravishing Red, Kate Moss by Rimmel- 111 Kiss Of Life [matte], L'Oreal Infallible-312 Ravishing Red, KLARA cosmetics SAMPLE- 03 & 05, MAC- Ruby Woo [matte], Kate Moss by Rimmel- 10, Maybeline- 645 Red Revival, Rimmel Moisture Renew- 330 Sloane's Plum, Revlon- 477 Black Cherry [back up still in package because i love it so], Rimmel- 170 Alarm)
So, this is my not so impressive collection at the moment, i've been delving into wines/plums a lot lately since its heading into winter soon, much like reds, these darker colours just fill me with a new level of confidence. I have such an itching for more, I can't go very many places without picking more up.
I think red is a very hard colour to pull off, its a very daring and bold colour if you aren't confident in doing it. You either have to wear it with pride or not wear it. Its just one of those staple pieces that makes me feel put together when i'm rushing out the door. I would definitely recomend the Kate Moss by Rimmel if you are looking for something to start you off, or MAC's MAC red. I sometimes doubt my own choices, trust me, but I have to stick with my gut, if it makes me happy, thats all I can ask for.
If you would like some swatche's either on the lips or on the hand let me know, and i'll try and make that happen.
Are you a bold lip person? Whats your favourite part of wearing a bold lip? Whats your go-to or Holy Grail shade/brand? I'm really open and interested in some new stuff to add too this collection.
Leave a comment or throw us a follow and lets chat about all the glorious wonders of lipstick.

Hi hello.
Its been quite a while, I'm sorry. Its the last 15 minutes of the first day of April, so, I came to make promises that I know I cant keep. I want to start by making at LEAST 1 post a week here. *snorts*
But honestly, I think I NEED to do this. I can slowly feel my intellect diminishing, and my ability to write things that even make a slither of sense disappearing. Being stuck at home for the last year and a bit is driving me crazy, I never thought I could get sick of being at home, and being lazy, but I am.
I'm sick of being treated like a lazy teenager, and I'm sick of being blatantly fucked around by hospitals.
Very few good things have come out of the last year, but I have discovered my love for many things, things that I am thinking about studying for a while.
Other then that, you haven't missed much.
There was my birthday, and this Soundwave. Oh soundwave, I miss this.
I forgot to tell you about that, my favourite person from my favourite band knows who I am.
No big deal.
I've been running this fansite for him since i met him in 2011, and when i mentioned it too him he gave me the biggest, warmest most sincere hug ever. Told me he remembered me from last time.
I cant even begin to tell you how much this meant to me during a year that's slowly collapsed around me.
Music means a very big deal to me, I fall in love with bands and become ver emotionally invested in them. I've been lucky enough to meet so many people I adore, but this was the honestly perfect.
Anyway, if I keep rambling, i'll run out of things to talk about for the next few weeks.
I hope wherever you are you are having a good day
Ronny. xo
