A girl can never have too many reds right? Right! You need a ‘red’ for the car, your purse, home, your other purse that you only use when you go out, etc. Heres’ 5 must haves for your collection!

These are 5 must haves because they are quality lippies and vary tremendously in pricing. Something for everyone! But what makes a good lipstick, “good”? Because I already know that red is good shade for me, first thing I look for in a red lipstick is the texture. Is this going to stay on my lips or my teeth? This is a HUGE reason why I tend to choose ‘matte’ type lipsticks. If the lipstick is too creamy, I can guess where it will end up. The next big thing I look for is the ‘long-wearing’ ability. If the lipstick is hard to get off of your lips in the store, buy it! That color is not going to fade and you will not have to continuously reapply.
