The [staying] Power of Lipstick!

Ok, to know me is to know, I don't so much as go outside without LIPSTICK, (powder and pearls)!  It's like brushing my teeth; it's just something I do the same way someone puts on a pair of shoes every morning.  And when applied in a way that I've done for years, the color (of course red) stays on through the day and/ or meals with minimal touch ups! 

Here's what I do to keep lipstick lasting a whole day...  My recipe and links below to my curent fave' reds!




  1. I outline lips with a matching red pencil... I overdraw, but natch', that's optional! 
  2. I fill in with a coat of permanent stain -  I like Maybelline INK, in Dancer
  3. After letting the stain dry for a moment, I make a big smile and lightly smooth over my choice of RED and I luuuuve Revlon's Fire & Ice!
  4. I'll do the classic tissue blot -  That's it!
  5. And the best way to get the stain off is of course with a make up remover ... or olive oil...which I also use as my face serum.  Uhm, I would take a bath in olive oil if I could!
That's it ...Because like my card says, Lipstick is like a bra for the face...It gives a lil' lift to what's already there!

Air kisses and accessory wishes until the next post!
