Did you notice Maine Mendoza’s aka “Yaya Dub” bright red lips? It is really bright and so classic right? In fact that is her signature lip color. I’ve made a previous post here about getting the perfect red lips and now Im reposting it again. Yaya Dub’s Red lips give volume of her full lips.  She is definitely one most stylish celebrity right now and one of its loveliest faces and not to mention very charming. She has this winning smile and perfect set of teeth which compliments her red lips.  Here are the 5 “BEST” Red Lipsticks that i can recommend:

NARS Sheer in Manhunt
NARS Sheer in Manhunt

1. NARS Sheer in Manhunt What I like best about NARS Manhunt is the color. The consistency is creamy and just sheer enough that it allows you plenty of control over the depth of color and the shade is warm and bright and flattering on every skin tone. Another terrific quality is it layers well, over itselt or with a gloss. If I want a subtle look, I use only 1 layer; to be more glamorous, say, for nighttime wear, apply a 3rd or 4th layer and then a glitter. It’s really outstanding. MAC Lipstick in Russian Red

2. MAC Lipstick in Russian Red Color plus texture for the lips. Stands out on the runway. Simmers on the street! What made M·A·C famous.  it’s the epitome of Old Hollywood glamour .  But if you’re looking for an in-your-face, accessory-in-and-of-itself red this is the best. The color is very divine and long wearing.

Another one which is MAC Ruby Woo. This is one of the MAC’s best selling lipsticks. In fact, this is the one Maine Mendoza is using  The Texture is Perfect Matte which is better than any other matte lipsticks.  Wet and Wild Lipstick 091 3. Wet and Wild Silk Finish Lipstick 091 Wet N Wild lipstick is some of the most inexpensive lipstick you can find. I love the price, so I am often looking through their shades of lipstick trying to find one that will look natural and pretty. Finding a beautiful color for such a low price would be like hitting a jackpot! Wet n Wild Silk Finish Lipstick,is an amazing buy. You can have beautiful colored lips and still have money in your pocket at the same time. I recommend this stuff to anyone. For the price,you can afford to reapply it as needed. This is a nice lipstick to use everyday. Try it out for yourself. This is a really nice lipstick choice. Avon Simply Pretty ColorBliss in SCARLET 4. Avon Simply Pretty ColorBliss Lipstick So much something at an affordable price. this has a very creamy consistency, great color and glides on your lips well. a good alternative if you’re on a tight budget.

5. Ever Bilena Matte Lipstick in Scarlet I actually like the packaging. Sleek and decent. They’re inexpensive but they don’t look cheap. I especially like the shade thingy on the top. I can easily see the shades without having to open the tubes. Very convenient.  This beautiful, beautiful coral red called Scarlet at the display shelf is a great choice!  Scarlet looks like MAC’s  red but for a fraction of the cost.

Make sure you know how to apply red lipstick. Here are some hot lip tips:

• Apply a lip moisturizer and then a thin layer of foundation.

• After the foundation dries, add a layer of face powder which will help set the lipstick so it will last longer.

• Next, line the lips with a pencil that matches your lipstick. Keep within the natural line of your lip.

• Apply a thin, even coat of the lipstick.

• Blot. Always remember to blot.

• Apply a second coat and you’re ready to go.

10 REASONS TO GET TOTALLY ADDICTED TO THE BODY SHOP


10 Products withstood the test of time and emerged as iconic best-sellers from The Body Shop. 

The Body Shop has been synonymous with nature-inspired products since it first opened in 1976. From the initial 25 hand-mixed products, the range has grown to over 1,200 products, all 100% vegetarian and animal cruelty-free. What’s more, 80% of their products contain Community Fair Trade natural ingredients, all bursting with effectiveness. Community Fair Trade enables them to source ingredients, gifts and accessories in a fair way, creating sustainable trading relationships with marginalized communities around the world.

Winning the hearts of their customers across Asia, 10 special products have stood out. Not only loved for their effectiveness, these products come jam-packed with inspiring stories, charting special moments in the history of The Body Shop.

1. MORINGA BODY BUTTER

Mention the words “Body Butter” and The Body Shop immediately springs to mind. Formulated with moringa seed oil from hand-picked moringa pods, it has a delicate floral fragrance and moisturizes for up to 24 hours.

2. WHITE MUSK® EAU DE TOILETTE

Launched in 1981, not only was our White Musk® fragrance an instant best-seller, it also represented a landmark in the fragrance industry since it was one of the first animal cruelty-free musks, made without harming the musk deer.

 

3. TEA TREE OIL

Body Shop’s  best-selling Tea Tree Oil is a natural solution to help keep skin blemish free without over-drying the skin. Hand-picked to ensure a purer oil, the benefits of the Tea Tree Oil make it truly multi-functional and beyond clearing blemishes, I have found many other uses for it, including dabbing on mosquito bites, applying on cuts and scrapes, cleaning make-up brushes, bathing and foot soaks and even massaging. I would like to think of it as a ‘genie in a bottle.’

 

4. VITAMIN E MOISTURE CREAM

It effectively moisturizes and softens skin, protecting it against the effects of harsh environmental elements and the appearance of pre-mature ageing.  It’s perfect for normal to dry skin types, easily absorbed and has the lightness of a lotion with the moisturizing benefits of a cream.

5. SPA WISDOM AFRICA XIMENIA & SALT SCRUB

Inspired by African beauty rituals, traditions and ingredients, the Spa Wisdom™  is luxuriously creamy cleansing exfoliator give results in silky smooth skin and allows you to create a pampering spa experience in their own home, when time doesn’t allow an escape to a resort.

 

6. STRAWBERRY SHOWER GEL

Amongst Body Shop’s highly popular shower gels, Strawberry is my ultimate favorite. I have found out that strawberry seeds can be squeezed to extract the fabulously fruity oil that smells divine and is so good for the skin. They now take the unwanted seeds away from producers of strawberry jam and use them in their Strawberry range. Another great example of recycling from The Body Shop.

7. ALL-IN-ONE FACE BASE

This quick and easy-to-use combined foundation and powder provides fabulous coverage. It can be used dry for a light matte finish or wet for higher coverage.

This foundation contains Marula Oil which has remarkable moisturizing and conditioning properties making their product very easy to blend and feel lightweight on the skin.

8. TEA TREE SKIN CLEARING FACIAL WASH

The Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial Wash is a refreshing cleanser with added peppermint essential oil which cools and refreshes the skin, leaving it feeling tingly clean. In addition to Community Fair Trade Tea Tree Oil, it contains Tamanu Oil from Madagascar, which has  fantastic skin moisturizing properties to help stop skin drying out whilst you cleanse, and lemon tea tree from Kenya, which gives the product a zesty fragrance.

 

9. OLIVE DRY OIL MIST

A spritz of our lightweight moisturization with lustrous Community Trade organic olive oil leaves the skin feeling fresh and soft all-day.

10. GRAPESEED GLOSSING SERUM

A glossing serum that adds great gloss and shine to the hair. It also helps moisturize the hair and is easily washed out. With Community Fair Trade Sesame Oil from Nicaragua which moisturizes and helps soften the skin.

AllAboutBeauty: Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Powder Makeup SPF 10

Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Powder Makeup SPF 10

I absolutely love this powder foundation! It can be used as a powder or a light foundation. I cannot say how much I love this stuff. The texture is very soft and silky, not silky enough to be moisturizing but not dry enough to be 100% matte. this type of consistency is best for normal to oily skin i would guess (this product is oil free by the way). Im pretty happy with this product and done a great job of keeping my t-zone looking matte. i wear this over double wear liquid makeup and my skin looks really clear and matte all day

I don’t apply this with the included sponge. What I do is is use a powder foundation brush and i swirl it on all over the face and blend downward to the neck area. After i’m done with my swirling technique, Smoothing over my face with the sponge after first applying the powder with the brush makes all the difference.

The finish is definitely natural matte. It wears for a long time and you don’t really need to touch it up unless your bored or something. This product  it stays fresh and matte all day.

This is Available in all Estee Lauder counters in Rustans.
