Being a lipstick girl, I’m always on the lookout for that perfect shade.

So when I tried out Shiseido’s new Perfect Rouge Glowing Matte Lipstick €24 in coral, all my Christmases came at once…it’s chic, it’s just bright enough to lighten the face, without being OTT, is ideal for day-wear, but also looks great at night.

I’d love to start wearing bright red lipstick but I’m not sure if I can carry it off. I have brown hair, am pretty pale but I blush really easily so think the red would look odd with my red face!
Wearing red can be a tricky one to pull off, but wearing a good base is the most important thing – your complexion needs to be looking pretty flawless …If you tend to blush easily, you’re probably best off steering away from full-on reds as they can accentuate the redness. Or else mix your lipstick with lipbalm for a sheer, more subtle effect.
