Lipstick Obsession

Riley Keough samples TF Lippie on I.D Magazine

I am drooling over Tom Ford's second Private Blend Lipstick Collection. As Mr Ford says, "There is no more dramatic accessory than a perfect lip. It is the focus of the face and it has the power to define a woman's whole look." These high pigment colours come in 12 covetable shades, and glide on as smooth as silk. Formulated with rare and exotic ingredients including soja seed extract, Brazilian murumuru butter and chamomilla flower oil, these lippies are luxe in a lipstick case! I like the look of red Cherry Lush and a creamy neutrals,Nude Vanilla and Sable Smoke.

 

I am also dying to get my mitts on Kate Moss's new red Lasting Finish Lipstick Collection for Rimmel - which thankfully WILL be available in NZ! She looks absolutely stunning in these ads. Unfortunately they are not available in New Zealand - I may have to pop over to Sydney for a shop!

 

I love red lippie but as much of a beauty junkie as I am, have always struggled with application - I seem to either end up looking like the Joker or like I have a teeny tiny mouth.

 

 

Kate's Top Lippie Tips:

 

Wear red lipstick "It's the ultimate shade. I wouldn't wear it during the day, but at night, or if it's a do, then it's good. Lipstick is the classic, iconic make-up, isn't it? You think of Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly, and it's always about the lips."

Don't worry about lip liner or lip blush "Make-up artists do that, but I wouldn't do it on myself. I don't use a lip liner or a lip brush: I just shove it on."

No lip gloss in the wind! "I've got a thing about sticky - it can't be sticky. [It's] from doing too many shoots when they get the wind machine out and my hair sticks to me. I get the fear."

If you love a product or colour - stockpile! "I like one thing, then it goes out of production, so I have to phone up the artist and beg for more. They discontinue the best products, it's really annoying. I've got a lot stockpiled."
