H O T F i R E


Remind me again why I never wear red lips.


When this collection dropped, I knew I had to practically purchase it all! While the highlighters sold out before I could hit "add to cart", I was able to get my hands (or my lips) on this hot fire liquid lipstick!

"Hot Fire" is literally that. A rich, spicy red orange liquid lipstick. 
The velvet matte finish leaves lips looking and feeling soft, never dry, with Dose of Colors signature staying power. 

I really wanted this look to focus on the lips and the skin. A glowing, dewy complexion compliments the [bright] matte lip without overpowering it.
To prep my skin, and give that glow from within look, I started with Mario Badescu's Aloe, Cucumber, and Green Tea facial spray. This invigorating mist is infused with cucumber and peppermint waters to refresh and calm the skin, while green tea acts as an antioxidant. I also spritzed a little of this onto my brush before dipping into my highlight!

Keeping the rest of my face monochromatic with nude tones also helps to balance, while playing into the more naturally glowing look.
