I had the opportunity to do Cora's makeup a few weeks ago. First of all, she is as sweet as she is stunning and so photogenic....seriously, she should be a model! We discussed doing a red lip and I was originally thinking a more bold contemporary look, but as I was doing her makeup I decided to tone everything else down and let the red lip have it's moment. I am so glad I did because it is turned out to be very 1940's! I think she looks like Ava Gardner.

Love that lip color!
ReplyDeleteI Pink i Love You
It really is one of my favorite red lipsticks. It isn't as creamy as a MAC lipstick though so for long wear I use a lip balm first.

Hi Chaka! Thanks for stopping by. I would love to follow your blog.
ReplyDeleteShe is so pretty! You are right, the contemporary look would have ruined the red lips and the idea it gives!
