Lipstick of the Day: MAC's Russian Red



It's finally Friday!

I'm not sure if you've noticed but I tend to dress down on Mondays and slightly dress up on Fridays. I just really throw out of my closet what I feel like wearing the moment I rise from bed. Apparently, I don't make much effort on manic Mondays and, in anticipation for the much-awaited weekend, I volunteer to be its welcoming committee. Don't we all want to look ready for the highlight of the week?



Today, I unearthed my Dorothy Perkins blouse and really red haltered argyle vest from Landmark to look preppy and pretty for my pre-shift financial planning meeting. That evening, my friend Kar brought her MAC Russian Red lipstick so I could try it again and see how it looks against my red outfit. She's convinced I must give it a try after reading this entry.




The lipstick looks quite pale in this one...



...and here. Apologies from my camera phone.



Red lips and...red, tired eyes!



STILL listening to Incubus! Why not?






Since I'm not satisfied that my so-called pictorial didn't capture how puta red this lipstick can get, I continued my attempts at home. Too bad my mother was too occupied with her usual morning rituals to notice my mouth. I'm sure she'd go: "Ang pula-pula na naman ng nguso mo!" How discouraging...yet funny!




This one finally gave justice to the redness of MAC's Russian Red! Right?



It was so pretty on my lips, I still wanted it on en route to dreamland!



Bedtime with the birthday boy, Johann!


Before you go ballistic, yes, I did wash my face before going to bed. Kalma lang!



Thanks to Ate San, Abby, Edric and half-asleep Lec for agreeing to take my photos.
