You will look awesome with any lipstick as long as you've got a smile on :) As long as you're confident there's nothing you can't pull off!

line and fill lips with MAC Cherry lip pencil
then with a lip brush apply MAC Russian Red
then add MAC Ruby Woo to center of lips...

Wear it with a neuttral eye with thicker winged liner for a in-up look. Red lips look so hot paired with a pin-upesque eye!

DEFINITELY confidence! It takes a lot to be able to pull off a dramatic red lip & feeling confident about it helps a lot.

I love the look of a heavy lined eye with a red lip. Kind of like what Manuela posted! Gorgeous ^_^

Use lip liner with all your lipsticks. Especially dark ones, so it doesn't run past your lip line. I do a neutral eye with beiges, pale golds, or pale silvers. Good luck and post pics

mk thanks y'all! Question, when y'all line y'alls lips, do you completely fill them in?

I usually completely fill in my lips with a color similar to the lip just incase the lipstick fades I still have remnants of the color. :)

Wear the color with confidence :) That way you can ensure that YOU are wearing the color, and the color isn't wearing you. I saw on a pinup modeling video that the models line their lips, apply the lip color with a brush, sweep translucent powder over it, line and fill again and that way, the color isn't going ANYWHERE! :)
