Bright Magenta Lips

Amy — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 05:00:40 +0000

I had an interview at a potential school last month, and needless to say I was aiming to impress. I decided to go for a polished look: light on the eyes and cheeks with VERY bright lips. In the pictures the lip color looks more red/pink than it was in real life.. it’s actually much more purple/blue toned.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

MAC has released two new beautiful lipsticks in their VIVA GLAM line, which means that 100% of the purchase price of these lipsticks goes to the MAC AIDS Fund and assists men, women, and children living with or affected by HIV & AIDS. The MAC AIDS Fund is a huge provider of relief both in America and internationally, and I am a passionate advocate of its services. It also doesn’t hurt that the lipsticks and lipglasses are all GORGEOUS!
