I went shopping with one of my best friends last Saturday, with the initial plan to help her find the perfect gown for her violin recital (which I'm super stoked for)...and I ended up picking up a several things along the way. Oy me.
As you can probably tell from the title of this entry YES I did end up buying a lipstick. I normally don't like to wear lipsticks, because they get on literally everything and you have to be conscious of where you're putting your kissers so you can get a sense for when you need to reapply. However, I felt that it was time for a change and tastes do change over time and so I thought - why the heck not?
When I do wear lipstick they're usually in light shades like nude or a creamy pink, so I really went out of town with the lipstick I bought.
Media may definitely be a risk for some as it is a bold/dark burgundy, but the plus side about this lipstick being so dark is that it creates the illusion of thinner lips which I definitely appreciate. Lighter shades like nudes and pinks tend to give my lips a fuller look. I can see how the first thoughts to be associated with with Media would be vampire or goth but interpretations aside...if you like it, who cares really :)
My only recommendation for application is to line your lips before going in with your lipstick. Application was smooth but lining my lips with the lipstick alone proved to be a rather difficult and messy process. However if you're skilled and experienced unlike me, kudos to you my friend!
