the red looks fab on you (may just be that it looks like a better quality lip stick) but it looks great.

you do suit the nudes though, just wash you out a little more (i think thats the case with most nudes!)
Nudes all the way!!!

OMG no way!!!

I think its because its matte, I always feel they dont look as "expensive" on the lips.

its the only matte colour along with honeylove i have haha, i kinda followed the whole kylie jenner trend but the velvet teddy shade she uses makes me look white as a ghost! haha i do get your point though, theyre quite difficult to get an even coat on the lip unless you exfoliate 10000 times a day haha!

When I asked for a nude colour, the lady in the shop said she wouldn't recommend whirl as it's too dark xD

it isnt though? it depends on your skin tone, im half olive so i can get away with it but if you was sickly pale then you'd look a bit stupid tbh
