As you can well see, I've already knocked out one new years resolution: bold new lips for a brave new year. I don't know that I'd call this shade blue-based, but that seems to be the consensus opinion of it as of late. I'm pleased with the look overall; I was a bit nervous when I first put the lipstick on because it wasn't quite as dark as I'd expected, but it did not disappoint! One thing that I will point out is that it will magnify any flaws in your lips so it's best to exfoliate or use a lip mask beforehand!
I want to thank you all again for your support and welcome you to join in the blog hop as labeled above! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
