I don’t generally get enough time in the mornings to do much in the way of eyeshadow so I often rely on a slick of liner and a bold lipstick and to be honest, that suits me fine! Seeing LondonMakeupGirl rock a gorgeous flick the other day inspired me to make the effort and extend my liner past the ‘comfort zone’!
I was also keen to wear my new Revlon Strawberry Suede lipstick that I picked up from eBay after hearing Lisa Eldridge extol its virtues… shame Revlon discontinued it, it’s pretty fabulous!

What are you wearing today?
The lipstick looks stunning on you, I don’t think I could ever pull off this look. Red lipstick never suits me.
xo
I bet it does… maybe it’s just a bit out of your comfort zone? x
Interesting how we all are inspired by the Dior promo ( I did such look the other day myself). You look sexey on these photos 😉 x
Kate has it all innit x
I can’t get over how thin you look! I always found you very pretty, but in these pictures you look positively stunning! Old school glamour at its best x
Oh gosh, I still have 2 stone to drop yet but thank you very much for your kind words xx
it looks gorgeous on you dear! 🙂
Thank you lady, it’s such a lovely summery shade!
Looks like you haven’t converted one reader to red lippie!
You look lovely.
There’s a red out there for everyone 😉 Thanks lady xx
Love! Strawberry Suede is one of my favorties too. But now that it is discontinued I do not want to use it up! Haha x
Aww you can still get your hands on it very cheaply online xx
I love this look! 😀
Thank you Nav!
You look gorgeous! Red lips really suit you!
Thanks Gio! xx
Just picked this up on eBay for £3.20 with postage!
Bargain-a-rama! Well spotted you!
Really pretty on you – very Ava Gardner. Completely off topic, but I do like your top! Thanks for mention. x
Thank you L, I’m a bit addicted to these Victoriana esque tops… I should stop wearing them now Summer’s coming though xx
Brilliant look! Also love the top, where is it from?
It’s one of Primark’s finest x
I love this, I was sad to see the colour go too. It’s pretty versatile (though I don’t think I’d consider red), and of course love the matte finish.
Thanks Tamara, no it’s not quite red is it… pinky/orangey strawberry. Slightly odd colour really! x
Strawberry Suede looks great on you. I love it :>
Working that up-do!
This looks great on you. Very disappointed to hear that it has been discontinued, going to have to browse the old ebay in search of my own one now *loving grumble*
Wow! I got lucky then. I was at a discount shop and they had packs of 4 Revlon lipsticks for $5 and one of them in my pack was Strawberry Suede! There were 2 of the Mattes and 2 of the Moondrops in each pack. I’m loving the Moondrops too, they are so moisturizing and the colors are so vibrant. These will be perfect for summer.
Was this a store in the USA? I’d love to look for those.
I’m sorry I missed this. The store is in the US but only in New England, it’s Ocean State Job Lot. If you aren’t in NE don’t give up hope, a lot of the stuff I find there winds up at Big Lots too, so you may have better luck there.
I bought the Strawberry Suede lipstick on Amazon as soon as she mentioned this shade in a video! I went on a major search for similar shades. So far I have Revlon Colorstay in Ripened Red, Revlon Cha Cha Cherry, Revlon Fire & Ice, NYX Soft Matte lip cream in Amsterdam, and Boots Wild Volume in Forever Cherry. I bought a lot of lipsticks trying to get a close match, and those are all great shades. I’d say the Boots comes close.
Beautiful! x

Rebecca, comments aren’t letting me reply directly to you, hopefully you’ll see this:
