Things I Love: Red Lips

Just because Valentine's Day is over doesn't mean you have to ditch the sexy red lips! The quickest way to spice up your look for a night out is to add a red lip! I've put together my four favorite red lipsticks that are perfect for every skin tone and relatively affordable! I have three out of the four products, so I'll swatch those for you!

1: Mark. Lipclick in Cha Cha
2. Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Cherry Tart
3: Mark. Lip Color Crayon in Hot Sauce
4. NARS Lipstick in Jungle Red

I've put together a classy look that will save you over $900! With those kind of savings, you could buy your significant other, or yourself a pretty nice present!

My Nail Polish Collection

If I were to be asked what my biggest beauty obsession is, the answer would be nail polish! I have 67 different polishes, varying in color and brand. This collection is only about 1 year old. The brand that I have the most polish in is Sinful Colors. I bought all mine from Walgreens when they were on sale and I had a 20% off coupon. So I ended up getting around 46 polishes for less than $75. Not bad, not bad at all. But let's start with my smaller collections first!

Top Row: Opening Night, Teal We Meet Again, Read My Palm, Havana Dreams, Shiny Dancer

Bottom Row: Already Famous, Handpicked For Me, It's All About Me, Wild About Shimmer
