So done with pastel hair! Leave it to the art majors, people.

Agreed, LC's is a bit brighter than the norm. Her makeup artist mixed burgundy with red, so it's still got that oxblood nod — just not maybe quite as moody/dark as other oxbloods we've seen.

You mentioned an oxblood lip, but the picture you showed isn't oxblood. Oxblood is a dark, brown based red. Lipsticks and clothing going by the name of oxblood are nothing like the bright red lip you showed.

Love the ombre lip! Swoon would take your gloss a step further though, just saying. http://www.indiegogo.com/swoon

So, SO tired of the top knot! It's so ubiquitous, it's like a requirement.
