Big Bisous
A little beauty, I know you're all beauty addicts... Ok I admit I'm becoming one too... As much as I don't give a 1000 shits about eyeshadows and other smoky eyes ( except for the blue klein ok then I melt ). But my madness is lipstick... I've got loads of it, I love it! and yet just a few years ago, I didn't wear any but I dreamed about it, I did have one or two but I didn't think I had a lipstick mouth.... What an idea! The truth is, I didn't know how to use lipstick and I always had some on my teeth at one time or another: GLAMOUR. I'll even skip the story of the tryst with lipstick on my front teeth... When I got home I saw my face in the mirror, and I knew he'd never call... But imagine the Colgate smile and the big Carmine stain on your teeth, Zézette épouse X, the ultimate chic. And then one day my aunt, whose job it is-no, she doesn't make lipstick, but she is a professional make-up artist-took matters into her own hands. And showed me the ultimate trick: "the finger-in-mouth trick...". Once you've applied your lipstick, put your finger in your mouth and close your mouth around your finger, the excess that might gracefully remain on your teeth will then be on your finger, and it works every time! I'll let you rewatch Mai's video, where she shows you this famous pro gesture... Once I had this tip in my pocket, I can tell you I had a blast! Lipstick every day of the week! Let me show you my short list, my favorites I can't get enough of. In the morning, I get ready and choose a color, a bit like choosing a dress for my mouth, a color for a mood... the basics in fact...
1. Red russian by MAC I don't need to introduce you to it anymore, Madonna's lipstick, the Madonna of the 80s. I wear it when I feel like being fatal, ahah yeah sometimes I'm like that!
2. bourjois, ok this one I admit I liked at first glance just for the packaging first... And then the color, all transparent, a bit shiny, that I either powder or let shimmer it depends... Super moisturizing too!
3. A real granny's lipstick: Rouge baiser is such a pretty name... it's shade 415 LUPIN, a beautiful coral, a very dense color, but the downside is that it's not very moisturizing, so I moisturize my mouth well beforehand with balm, and I also powder it afterwards so that it lasts a little longer than 2 hours. I wear it less often because the color isn't easy to wear, but when I decide that this is the one and not another, it's because I'm in a sophisticated mood... if it's possible to feel sophisticated!
4. A super-moisturizing orange orange INFRARED from topshop and I outline my mouth with an orange pencil because the color tends to run... I wear this one when I feel like having a laugh...
5. Lady danger by MAC is actually my favorite, the color is almost fluo and matte, but like its big brother red russian, it's not super moisturizing... I wear this one when I'm not feeling well, it's a bit like my cuddly toy, when I'm not wearing anything crazy, it does everything... MAGIC!
6. This one is my first lipstick that my aunt gave me during that famous lesson, a Barbie FUCHSIA 84 fluorescent pink, a good old Gemey that smells like grandma, I love it! I wear it when I'm wearing a bright color, with a red-orange or green sweater, it makes all the difference and everything right away, a sort of color block portrait, the finishing touch to a silhouette!
7. Rimmel's KISS OF LOVE 111, which looks a lot like red russian but is brighter, is the real red, the lipstick for making a mark on your man's neck. In fact, it's the red the woman in the Enamel Diamond ad is wearing. A kind of red that makes everyone agree... a bit of an essential...
Which is your favorite shade?
