Gwen Stefani's Glossy Red Lips...color?

[saylorj]

Hi!

I am a lipstick addict. I mainly stick to the bite lip pencils and I love anything matte. I have about 10 shades of red in matte tones but I think I want to try a bright, glossy red lip a la Gwen Stefani. I haven't really worn gloss since I was 21(now 33) but I think I would be into trying one! Just no sparkles. Anyone know how I can achieve this? I have a few things in my shopping cart that look similar, YSL #9 and Stila Vinyl Lipgloss in Poppy Vinyl.

I believe she's wearing L'Oreal Infallible Le Rouge lipstick in Ravishing Red. This was around the time she was promoting it, and she wore it often. I have it too, so I can vouch for the velvety look that it gives off in this photo. t's pretty good for a drug store lipstick although you'll need a liner for sure because it tends to feather. Other than that I say go for it!

To add even more gloss to the look, you could pop pretty much anything on top- a clear gloss, a red gloss, or specifically, the L'Oreal Infallible 8 Hour Le Gloss in Red Fatale. I don't have this one but Gwen wore it a lot in her L'Oreal pushing days and it looked pretty great on her.

That shade of lipstick wouldn't suit me at all, but it looks super hot on her; I can see why you're keen to find a match or dupe! 🙂
