My Perfect Lipstick Color

By Stacey Freeman 3 Comments

my-perfect-lipstick-final-mainLast week, I tried out 15 different lipstick shades attempting to find my perfect lipstick color. I asked for reader feedback and many of you left me comments on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram and here in the comments section.

First, thank you for all of your comments and feedback. Reading your comments and seeing which colors you liked best was a lot of fun. Plus, it was interesting to find most of you chose similar favorites.

So onto the winners. Drumroll. There was a tie—dead even between #1 (Korres in Rose) and #8 (Nars in Cruella). Even better, I completely agree with these choices.

When I was trying all 15 shades, both of these colors stood out to me. I loved the Korres Mango Butter Lipstick because of how smooth and moisturizing it felt. I also loved the subtle rose color, a perfect enhancement to my natural lip color. The Nars lip pencil was also one of my favorites because I loved the how the pencil application created a perfectly defined lip without feathering. The vibrant red is striking and would be perfect for when I want to get fancy. Plus, my teeth look really white—gotta love that!

Going into this lipstick experiment, I really didn’t think I knew which lipstick colors would look best on me. But from the beginning, #1 and #8 were secretly the two I liked most–perfect day and evening choices. The readers confirmed what I guess I already knew, the colors  that really did look best on me.

So what do you think? Do you like the colors the readers who voted chose? What lipstick do I still need to try?

    They’re both so different. They give you varying looks. Rose is very natural & easy on the eyes. Cruella is vibrant & bold. I like them both. :] // itsCarmen.com ☼ ☯

Please don’t touch my kids’ hair. Please tell Please don’t touch my kids’ hair. Please tell your kids not to touch their hair. I can’t believe I have to say this or explain why this is racist. But I do.

I’m sure this seems like a random statement to most people. It might not seem like a big deal to you. But it’s not random and it is a big deal. It’s a common experience for Black people, and it’s not ok. 

Given everything going on right now, it’s hard for me to talk about a right to our personal space and bodies. That’s part of it. But it’s also about making my kids feel like an other.

New on poshinprogress.com, I’m sharing the story of my shock and surprise when my daughter told me she didn’t feel comfortable wearing her hair down anymore because so many of her classmates were touching her hair. And then being dumbfounded to find out my son has had a similar experience. I also share information on racial micro aggressions and history of Black people’s hair. If this story is surprising or confusing to you, please read more about why it’s never ok to touch Black people’s hair.

During the summer, I live in t-shirt dresses. I try to find ones that have built in shape, like this one with a little shoelace tied waist. I also add shape and finish the look by adding jackets or light layers.

I was going to post about summer fashion. I was go I was going to post about summer fashion. I was going to talk about my kids’ beach camp next week. 

But this can’t go unsaid. I am so angry right now. I am terrified for my daughter and women in the U.S.

We just lost a fundamental human right. We just lost control of our bodies. 

This is not about saving the lives of unborn children. Because if it was, then all guns would be banned - because guns are the leading cause of childhood death in the U.S. 

This decision is about control. About controlling women. 

If you have the ability to choose whether to own a gun, why can’t I choose the healthcare decisions that are right for me? This is no longer a democracy. This decision has so much greater impact than people even realize. 

If you’re looking for resources, I’m linking a comprehensive one in my stories. This is not a place for debate, this is a place to protect women and our rights to control our bodies. We must stand together.
