Today i'll swatch 5 red lipsticks from my collection for all of you.  The shades vary from brownish red to fuchsia red and i am sure you will find one for your liking.
Here we go. 

Swatches in different lights!

 With flash on!
 In Natural light Indoors!
 Natural sun light!
 Let’s concentrate on each shade briefly.
 1. Avon Simply pretty Colorbliss lipstick “Sparkling Wine”:
I have already described the color here. It’s a pretty red with slight coral tinge. Thats what makes it perfectly wearable. It has tiny shimmers in it which do not show up much on the lips. If you are not comfortable wearing reds then you can start with this.
Price: INR 169/- for 4 gms
Easily available on INR 119/- for one and 199/- for 2 every few months

2. Avon Ultra Color Rich Lipstick “Butternut”:
Another of my favorite from the UCR range, this has very prominent brown in it.Have already described the color here as well. Its more of a brick shade with a red tinge I would say. The texture is amazingly creamy and gives opaque coverage to fully pigmented lips as well .This looks beautiful on the lips with the hint of red. On me it looks more red though. The light at my place has altered the shade a bit I feel. If you check my Valentine day post Here, then you can see how it comes out as a beautiful rusty red.
Price: INR 299/- for 3.6 gms
Easily available for around INR 250/- on offer.

On my lips! 


3. Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick “Fatal Red”:
A beautiful glossy red. It screams red, so definitely not for the faint hearted lot. If you are wearing it then be sure to draw a lot of attention. The makeup should be understated with just the focus on lips.
You have got the confidence!! then get it and flaunt it. ;)
Price: INR 299/- for 4 gms

4. MAC Retro Matte lipstick “Ruby Woo” :
You have to feel it on your lips to understand why it is so popular among us ladies.The texture is amazing. Its like velvet on lips. If you have dry lips then you may find it further drying but I would still recommend it to all. You can wear it as a tint or as a statement.choice is yours.Here I have applied it lightly to show you the variation you can get with this super matte lipstick. For the opaque statement lips check out my look here.
Price: INR 990/- for 3 gms
Yet to be reviewed. :P Promise doing that soon. ^_^

5. Faces Canada Cream Matte Lip Gloss “Fiery Red” :
This is an unusual red for me. Looks Fiery red in the tube and goes on as fuchsia red on the lips with very strong pink tones. The texture is not very thick. Applies glossy and sets into a matte finish.Quite drying for normal lips too.So moisturisation is a must.Sets in the lines after a while and if you have food/drink then gets patchy which looks really bad as the color is too loud to ignore. Not a must have but the shade is to die for. However when i apply loads of lip balm and then use it as a tint then it survives really well on my lips without much dryness or getting patchy.
Price: INR 399/- . Try to grab it on same at the store .i got mine for 299/- ;)
Have done a review for the same on wiseshe, here
