The Red Lip

Maybelline Color Elixir lip color c/o Refinery29 and Maybelline, Madewell chambray shirt, Joie Morie Sweater (similar here on sale), J. Crew heels, Cuyana Perfect Tote (c/o)

Look, my lipstick’s so glossy! Fun, huh? Refinery29 and Maybelline asked if I wanted to try out some of the new Color Elixer #lipmagic shades. They come in a lip gloss tube but the color is saturated and rich and very satisfying.

The timing is just right because I start experimenting with more dramatic makeup when the holiday season hits. Bold lip color makes me feel more festive — and as evidenced by my fair isle crazypants, that’s how I like to feel this time of year. I’m sporting the shade “Signature Scarlet” here but “Fuchsia Flourish” is another great one. Hot pink, I’m all over it.
