Makeup: My Alternative to Red Lipstick

Rimmel Colour Show Off Lipstick in Pink Gossip – Review – Buy it here

Most days I’m a ‘pale pink lipstick’ kind of girl, but sometimes I feel like spicing it up a bit and maybe not go as far as a red lipstick. This Rimmel lipstick is my go-to lippie for when I want a bit of colour on my lips. It’s bright, but unlike a red lipstick, I can still do a fierce eye makeup because the lips are not too overpowering.

For the application, I put the first layer of lipstick, blot the excess on a tissue and apply the second and final layer. That way I get a much longer staying power, and when the lipstick starts to wear off, it will do it evenly on the lips. I’ve done a full review of this lipstick a while ago, so if you’re interested in seeing photos and swatches, click here to read my review.
