Angelina Jolie is the queen of red lips

Oh, the art of wearing red lipstick. It can go so right and it can go so wrong.
It's a problem that I've had myself for a few years.I feel like I can only wear lipstick with black clothes. As soon as I put on colored clothes while wearing red lipstick it's gone two minutes later. I don't know what it is. Maybe it's because the red shades I own are all really bright or maybe it's just because I like wearing black.
I know people who don't have the confidence for wearing bright, red lipstick but at the same time I know people who rock it. So, perhaps it's just a formula; perhaps you can learn it all by memorizing a few tips. If so, I want someone to let me know.

Well, the point of this post is to try to get one step closer to my goal: Wearing red lipstick without removing it within 30 seconds. Once again I've turned to the internet for some help. First I found out what my skin tone is and then (like every other stereotype) I googled celebrities with the same skin tone wearing red lipstick. Wow, can this get more cheesier?  The results I got were not so marvelous so I quit making it complicating and googled the obvious: Angelina Jolie Red lips.

If there is one person that can pull off red lipstick it's Angelina Jolie. What I noticed whilst scrolling through endless images of perfection were the clothes she wore with the lipstick. Black, white and red. Hardly anything else. So maybe that's the secret? Wear colors that you know match your lips and you're good.






If you have any tips or tricks up your sleeve feel free to share them with me down in the comments!

Punk hugs,
