Red lipstick and I have an on-again, off-again relationship. I’ve always loved its timeless glamour and ability to bring me undeniable confidence, but finding one that doesn’t dry out my lips or smudge everywhere is a different story.
But, with the festive season in full swing and my collection of nude lipsticks not quite cutting the mustard, my hunt for the perfect red lipstick returned.
Believe me when I say that when the Sculpted by Aimee Lip Duo in the shade Ruby Rouge landed on my desk, my lengthy search came to an end – I’d found my ultimate red.
This isn’t your usual bullet lipstick, however. The clue is in the name as the Lip Duo is actually a double ended marvel. With a lipstick at one end and a precision tip lip liner at the other, you have everything needed to create a red lip.
Sculpted by Aimee Lip Duo
Featuring a dual ended design with a lip liner at one end and lipstick at the other, the Sculpted by Aimee Lip Duo in Ruby Rouge is the ultimate tool for creating a festive red lip for Christmas. It features a long-lasting, smudge-proof formula that doesn’t bleed into fine lines around the mouth.
BUY NOW FOR £17The liner is particularly great if your lipstick tends to bleed as it’s a slightly firmer texture than the lipstick, allowing for maximum control over the edges and creating a barrier to keep your lipstick in place. It’s also a smidge deeper in colour, perfect for creating the illusion of a fuller pout and more dimension.
The lipstick? This is a creamy, ultra-pigmented formula that delivers a solid swipe of colour in one application. Formulated with rosehip oil and shea butter, it has a satin finish that doesn’t dry out your lips or leave them feeling uncomfortable, like many other red lipsticks.
It’s also the most classic, true-red shade which truly flatters all skin tones. Red lipsticks can lean towards orange, warmer tones and cool, blue undertones but this is the perfect blend of both, so there’s no need to decipher which shade you need from your skin tone.
The Sculpted by Aimee Lip Duo isn’t just my favorite though, it has countless top reviews too. One rater, Cliona, said: I am obsessed with these products. I purchased two different shades and both are beautiful. It’s the first and only lip duo I have purchased that lasts all night long. It’s so handy for your bag on nights out, obsessed!!’
Dani, another reviewer said: ‘It doesn’t dry out and is so moisturising. The colour pay off is beautiful and it’s in my handbag every single day. Much prefer this to other brands. I have 4 already!’
And a review left by Marie read: ‘I love the sculpted lipsticks, I have most of the range and the colours are lovely, moist and packaging is lovely. Really handy to carry with you and they have the added bonus of the lip pencil at the end which is great. Would highly recommend these lipsticks.’
Ready to get your festive glam on? Then give the incredible Ruby Rouge Lip Duo from Sculpted by Aimee a try. It’ll be love at first swipe.
