Re: Red Lips=HOT or NOT? POLL
You have strange definitions of "dark" and "light", some of those women in different categories have the same skin tone. Also, some of those lipstick shades are more coral or burgundy than red. When people mention red lipstick, I tend to think of bright pillarbox red.
I think it looks okay as long as it's not really bright red and/or shiny, like in the photos of Kim Kardishan or Tyra Banks in the first post, that just looks ridiculous. Toned down slightly and matte or with more of a natural sheen is better imo. You can end up looking like a clown if you don't get the shade right, especially if your lips are big and full. -

that's because of the lighting. The latinas are lighter than the indians i posted, but in those pics they look similar.

Love red lips with a passion, don't get why some women are scared of wearing it, they look fabulous!
I've always said a good red lipstick is a girl's best friend

Re: Red Lips=HOT or NOT? POLLdo you like it on anyone dark skinned?(Original post by InkingTheSky)
I don't like it on any of the girls you posted - I think it depends on the person but suits pale skinned women the most.

Re: Red Lips=HOT or NOT? POLLwho do you consider hot?(Original post by james1211)
None of those girls in the photos were hot anyway. -
Re: Red Lips=HOT or NOT? POLLi really like it, especially on the first girl.(Original post by ROYP)
correct. the bright red is just too striking on a lot of them. the 2 girls on the second row look alright because it's a bit darker
BTW whos the first model? She's so beautiful
