I've long made it my mission to find a wearable red lipstick. I love 1950s pin-up style and look like the sort of person who might to be able to carry off a bold lip colour. However my yellowy-olive skin seems to clash with most reds, when worn on my face. I know I can wear orangey/ red clothes, but orangey red lip colours are too brassy for me and browny reds look a bit 80s.
I have now made an amazing discovery. Revlon Just Bitten Lip Stain is a light-weight, moisturising lipstain. It doesn't look clumpy or too done like a lipstick, but the moisturising element mean it doesn't give that horrible wrinkly dry feeling like other stains can.
The red (Romantic) is a lovely almost-natural red, which looks (as it says on the tin) like just bitten lips.
It's easy to apply; like a wax crayon but it will need reapplying after eating and drinking. However it goes on so smoothly it's more of a pleasure than a chore.
