RED TIPS:

  • With such a bold statement on your lips it’s best to keep your eyes simple. Try using natural colors like Whisper, Bare, Bark and Cream as lid colors.

  • If you need to line your eyes stick to neutral colors like our Organic Pencil Eye Liner in Orbit, and only apply liner to the top lash line.

  • Don’t forget mascara; try Pure Soul Mascara in Mink for naturally darkened and defined lashes.

  • Apply minimal blush! Keep cheeks soft and neutral with Organic Mineral Blush in First Blush or Peachy to avoid too much color on your face.
