  1. I love that you said that it is important to keep the rest of your makeup LIGHT. So many red lipstick wearers can’t pull this look off because they overload their makeup in all the other areas, as well as the lipstick. This look can be pulled off, but it definitely is hard. Thanks for the tips!
