Hi naturalistas,

I hope all is well and your resolutions are in full swing. I love this time of the year! One of my favorite holidays is National Wear Red Day on February 1! As a heart attack survivor this particular day is like a second birthday for me. It’s a time to get awareness out and help save our women by making sure they know we are still the #1 target of heart disease! So I always start preparing my red for that special day a few weeks in advance! Lately, I have been rocking red fiery lips and loving it. Here are a few reds that might make you want to jump on the bandwagon!

 Lipsticks range in all sorts of finishes from matte to glossy. What’s is going to be your perfect match depends on how it makes you feel when you wear it, because confidence is key. A couple of my favs are Ruby Woo by MAC with  a matte finish. So if you are looking for that classic look that won’t move on your lips but instead stay in place and wear well,…well it might be the one for you! If you are not down with the dry texture of a matte lipstick then maybe a creme is your best bet. Liza Red, by MAC is a beautiful creme lipstick and some others are Brick or beginners can start with a Raisin, both by Bobbi Brown. You could use a liner with either to keep the lipstick in place and if you are new to red or feel that your full lips don’t deserve such attention,…..don’t! By using a slightly darker liner, not black (ever) and not chocolate, unless you have a very delicate hand, it will soften the color of the red and hopefully make your experience rocking it a pleasant one!

Send us pics of you rocking your red! I’ve added mine,….your turn! And remember…
