An Everyday Red


Meet my new favorite lip combination; M.A.C half-red lip pencil and Fast Play lipstick. I've been using Fast Play for a while now and always get compliments on it; it's a very pretty cool-toned neutral pink that suits my complexion particularly well - for those of you out there that find peachy and orang-y tones not so flattering and struggle to find a neutral lip color, you may want to give this one a go. Just sayin'. What I love the most about this lipstick is that you can really play around with its opacity and wear it as softly or boldly as you want, by dabbing it on with your fingers or a lip brush. 

If Fast Play has been a favourite of mine during the last couple of months, things just got better once I got my hands on Half-red lip liner in Copenhagen airport last January; it's a match made in heaven. As its name suggests, Half-red is, well, half red. It's a mid toned red with a hint of mauve in it. It's beautiful when used on its own, but paired with Fast Play it transforms into a beautiful, neutral-ish rosy red - the perfect compromise between a daytime neutral lip and a night time heavier, bolder lip. It's my definition of "an everyday red" as it's bolder than a nude, obviously, but not as high maintenance or in-your-face as a proper red. 




This combo goes with pretty much any eye-look, would most likely suit every skin tone and will definitely add a hint of glamour to your everyday routine. What more could we ask for ?
