Experimenting with red lips at MAC

I don’t know why, I’m always attracted to bold red lips, but hardly ever rock them. My friends and I were wandering around in SoHo last weekend and came across MAC’s Wonder Woman pop up store on Spring Street. We walked in and we were surrounded by pics of Wonder Woman and her scarlet lips EVERYWHERE, and I just couldn’t resist anymore. I asked the salesperson to help me pick out a red and he picked up a gorgeous matte Ruby Woo lipstick with their Brick Red lip pencil.

Thanks to Samira for being my photographer!

I have to say, it’s clearly not for the weak….but I did kinda feel like a super hero.

    Thanks Meshi! I didn’t plan to wear red at all that day, but worked out that I wasn’t wearing much eye makeup…oddly enough, my friends said the red lips brought out my eyes (??) which I still don’t understand haha
