NO NO NO NOOOOOO
(SIGH).... I LOVE BEY, GOD knows I do, BUT this is not a good look. I don't claim to know it all but I know when red goes wrong! Which it has clearly done here! SO let's talk about what not to do to look like Joan Crawford in Mommy Dearest.
First things first: Whenever applying RED lipstick please be aware that the lighter your complexion the more your lips are gonna POP so PLEASE, not so heavy on the blush! Yes..the whole point of wearing red lips is to have that glamour effect, but if not done correctly you will most def give the clown effect too and HOMIE DON'T PLAY THAT(lol)...
Secondly: There's no need for the dark liner. The focus can not be on both places (lips & eyes) therefore a "clean" eye is better in the event that your walking around with LOUBOUTIN LIPS. All that is really needed is mascara on both the top and bottom lash to make the eye look both open and soft.
Finally: Since red lipstick tends to bleed and wear off 1/2 way through the night it's a great idea to fill your lips in with a liner first!
A girl can't talk red lips without talking nails sooooo.... make sure that your nails don't clash with your lips! When comparing red lipstick with red polish try to match it as close as possible. You can even play it safe and stick with the forever trendy, never go wrong black nail(my FAv).

I LOVE B but i hate this lip too! She wears this lip enough to have seen herself photographed & know she can do better. You have to be careful with red lipstick. It can make your teeth look really dingy, which it does in this photo!!
Bravo! Bravo! well said!! This article needs to be published in the ALLURE mag asap!
