THIS WEEK I’M TRYING... BOBBI BROWN’S RED HOT COLLECTION

A strong red lip is my go-to for when I need an instant hit of glamour, yet so many women shy away from the idea of a red lip. they say it’s too bold. It’s too grown-up or too daring. But when you find the right red you’ll never look back and quickly realise why it’s been a powerful symbol of female beauty and sexuality since ancient times. With all the makeup trends and looks that come and go with each season, red lipstick has never once been out of vogue and there’s a red lip to be found in every collection. Just in time for Valentine’s, Bobbi Brown has created eight reds to add a swipe of drama to your pout and your complete look. You’re guaranteed to find the perfect red for you. And to ensure you’re teaming the right makeup with your lip, Bobbi’s created the ideal companion palette for a nude eye and a soft pink blush for a natural flush.
