I have actually softened the red a bit but putting a little of my natural lipstick on top of this, which makes it a bit more wearable. This is definitely an ‘evening only’ lipstick as I find this colour quite bright. Definitely great with outfits that include orange or coral.įull on red is definitely a challenge and a look I find very difficult to pull off. This colour was quite strong on the lips although it looks good on the images below. Since coral and orange are the IT colours this year and I purchased a few items in that colour, I thought it would be fun to add an orange to my new arsenal of lipsticks as well. I think it will look great with a brighter pink outfit though or other colours that are quite bright. But it ads more maintenance to my look (not a big fan of having to readjust the lipstick all the time…) and is getting on the dark side. Great for that extra pop of colour or doing a bit of colour blocking with bright outfits. The lipstick below is a darker and more covering pink. Ok, here we are getting into more untested waters. I feel from the pictures that this colour looks pretty good. It just gives my face a little more colour and will look good with my favoured old pink outfits. Sometimes my outfits are more pink than brown or red, so I decided it was well worth investing in a pinkish colour as well.
However, as I get more daring with wearing colour and enjoy wearing reds and oranges, this colour was no longer sufficient. This was my go-to colour if I felt that my lips needed a bit more colour. It’s a bit darker than my natural one and although the colour on the lipstick says brown, I feel it actually has a more reddish tone when put on the lips. The second lipstick was another lipstick I already owned. It suits every outfit and I actually quite like my natural look. It’s the one totally on the left and I pop it one whenever I go outside. The lipstick I always wear the most is the most natural one. So this review is not so much about how good Bobbi Brown lipsticks are, but more about the colours and which ones are good for me and other women over 40. I like this lipstick for its reliability, pleasant feel on the lips and hydration attributes. So I decided to add a few more colours to my lipstick repertoire! I decided to stick with a brand that I have been using for a long time: Bobbi Brown. Since lipstick is usually the only serious makeup I use, I decided I should get a bit more serious and adventurous with it.
