7 Days 7 Lipstick Shades

"I’ve always been a make-up lover, and while I enjoy experimenting with new trends, I’d never dared to try them all—at once! So, when Cosmo challenged me to wear an ‘It’ lip colour every day for a week, I was both excited and nervous..."

Day 1
Brunch with mum
Monday: "I decide to start the week with a daring bright orange lipstick—I figure ‘go big or go home’, right? My mum is a little surprised to see the colour on me, but she claims it looks good."

Day 2
A script reading
Tuesday: "I am at a producer’s office for a script reading and I choose to sport fuschia lips to complement my chic jumpsuit. The role is of a stylish woman and I think I look the part."

Day 3
Girls’ night out
Wednesday: "It’s the middle of the week, and I’m dressing-up and going out! I’ve been dying to try a dark, wine-inspired lipstick and I think tonight’s the perfect excuse. My friends love it and think I’m quite daring."

Day 4
A movie screening
Thursday: "I have to attend the screening of a friend’s new movie, so I decide to do glamorous smokey eyes and pair it with a bubblegum-pink lipstick. Everyone loves my ‘new look’."

Day 5

Early morning shoot
Friday: "I woke up late today, and need to be at the studio in 20 minutes. A quick swipe of a coral shade helps me look more fresh and awake, and it’s easy to remove when I get to the shoot."

Day 6
A friend’s birthday
Saturday: "After the success of the wine red lipstick shade, I am returning to classic and sexy red lips for a friend’s birthday party. I think, I may have found my perfect night-time colour."

Day 7
Coffee with the girls Sunday: "I want to give my skin a breather, so I settle for a nude gloss and minimal make-up. It’s been an interesting week and I won’t be surprised if I start experimenting with daring eyeshadow shades next."
