Yes, I just quoted Taylor Swift.
But let's face it, a red lip is timeless, bold - and definitely sexy. Women have desired a red pout for centuries. Cleopatra was said to have crushed beetles to get that crimson color and Queen Elizabeth used a mix of beeswax and flowers. We've come a long way from lip junk made of bugs and plants, but that bold, red lip can seem intimidating sometimes. When I worked at a local make-up store, I heard women say ALL THE TIME, "I've always liked a red lip, but just not for me."
Why not you? If you feel intimidated by such a bold look but are tempted to dip your toe in the sensual pool that is red lipstick, or if you are a red lippy FIEND looking for a more subtle approach to the look, then I have a solution for you!
Lipstick Queen's Medieval
Lipstick Queen is such an incredible brand offering an extremely wide variety of textures and colors of lipstick. Medieval is a sheer, creamy red that brightens your face and gives you that red lip confidence without screaming, "I AM RED LIPSTICK. HEAR ME ROAR."
A subtle and beautiful red option for a bride...
Or a fun, flirty every-day look

Medieval looks awesome on everyone and is a great first step to conquering your red lip fears. (I actually sold my boss on it a few months ago and she wear's it all the time now!)
