I have a close friend who has a lucky lipstick. It's a classic -- Revlon's Fire and Ice Lipstick -- and looks fabulous on her. Not only does it brighten her entire face, it also has major lasting power, as in survives a full cheeseburger, fries, and wine meal and still looks completely fresh. (To find the best red lipstick for your skin tone, click here.) BUT this post this isn't about her lipstick, like I said, it's about her lucky lipstick.
See, whenever she needs good vibes, like on a job interview or when meeting a new guy, she just swipes on her favorite red. And, always -- I really mean always -- things magically work out. She gets the job, and that new guy turns out to be amazing.
Coincidence? That's what I thought. Then, I spoke withseveral makeup artists and appearance professionals, including Linda Mason, author of "Eye Candy," and I learned something truly mind blowing. Apparently, your makeup look sends signals out into the world. (To see what signals your makeup is sending, click here) And that lucky red lipstick? Well, it just so happens that red lipstick says you're confident, fearless, bold, and upbeat. (Hmm ... maybe I need to invest in some?)
And that's not all I learned. I found out just what smoky eye makeup, nude lips, the cat eye, and a whole bunch of other makeup looks mean. Check out the gallery below and find out what your makeup look tells the world.
