If you have been following me for a while, you probably already know I adore lipstick. Any kind really, but the idea of a deep red has this timeless appeal that not many other colors can compete with. So, I own a lot of red lipsticks to say the least, and I’m quite in love with most all of them for different reasons. However- this one is a true love. It’s Anthropologie’s Albeit lipstick in ‘Red Velvet’, a cyber Monday random buy. I must admit, the prettier/simpler packaging first drew me to the ‘stylo sticks’ vs. the classic tubes. Which was kind of a match made in heaven seeing the color options differ and none others in the line could stand against the deep, Christmas-party, red that I’m now having an affair with.
They are all infused with vitamin-rich papaya so the ‘matte’ look is completely comfortable and winter-lip-friendly. Plus, I read somewhere on Anthro’s site that the ‘Albeit-inspiration’ comes from old-hollywood hues, so it’s no wonder they’re are all so intriguing. Hello, Audrey and Marilyn. If you’re on the hunt for your new favorite color- look no further, my dear. I’ve found it.
xo, til’ next.
