Re: Looking for a Blue Based Red Lipstick

@DrKelli and @monicakm Looked on Ulta's website at Cherries in the Snow and it looks like it has a lot of purple in it.  Is that how you also see it?

Cherries in the Snow by Revlon is a really good one. You can always apply a gloss over it if you think it's too dark. I think I have the nail polish too. One nice thing, it's not expensive. Woman Wink

No purple in the Cherries in the Snow. If it did I couldn't wear it.

I have posted this before. My favorite red is Rimmel’s “Kiss Me You Fool.” It’s about $7 and stays on forever.

I looked up this lipstick, Rimmer's Kiss Me You Fool, and it looks beautiful. But I see it's one of those 16 hour lipsticks and usually those are very drying for me. Do you find this one to be very drying?

Re: Looking for a Blue Based Red Lipstick

My FAVORITE Blue Red lipstick is Bobbi Brown's POPPY Nourishing Lip Color.   It also has a sheerness to it.  I often times will top it with a BB ip tint when I want to change it up.    The sad thing is that it's being discontinued so it is now selling for $20.30 on the website.  I stocked up...  I now have 9,  and may buy more.   It's really very flattering and a gorgeous color.  

I must wear a blue red.  Any orange or warmth in the red makes me look sick!

Re: Looking for a Blue Based Red Lipstick

Got my Revlon Cherries in the Snow this past weekend.  Just tried it on today.  Ummm, I'm just not a lipSTICK girl.  Haven't been in decades.  I was about to wipe it off when I saw my Fenty Ruby Milk gloss bomb.  They are the exact same color and I love the Ruby Milk.  So I topped the Revlon with Fenty and viola!  Double the wear time and with a gloss Smiley Happy

Hubby says it's too bright.  I knew it was but thought I just needed to get used to it.
