Reds are the only way to go in February and on Valentine’s Day! Red lipstick is seductive and glam and is for everyone, young or old! This is the perfect time of the year to visit your favorite makeup counter or Internet site to find a NEW red lipstick for you.

Lipstick is noticeable immediately when you meet someone so it’s important when choosing a color that it works with your skin tone. Bold reds look great with darker skin tones. Reds with blue tones work well with fair skin and orangey-reds go with tan skin.
If you are wearing an intense or bold red keep the rest of your makeup simple or softer looking. A lighter or sheer shade of red lipstick can be worn with bold eye makeup. Have some fun and put a little of the red lipstick you are wearing on your cheeks.
