Okay I got a question :) I have been told that I should choose a blue based red lipstick... so my question is, how do I know if a red lipstick is blue based??

It has cool undertone like cherry red. And if you use, it somewhat makes your teeth whiter.

But will it say it on the lipstick that it is blue based?

No, it doesn't say. If only it were that easy.
If the red looks more orange or pink it's not blue based, if it looks closer to having purple hues then it's blue based... Is there a particular brand you're looking at?

Ahh that makes sense Cass :) No I wasn't looking for a particular brand, I just been using this red lip tint and I thought it was time to try a real red lipstick :) I like Rimmel lipsticks. other then that I don't know about brands :)

Red lips are going to look gorgeous on you, your blonde hair will bring out the red and the blue base will make your eyes pop!

ELFs red Matte Lip Stick is good. Whenever I can find it I always buy Urban Decay Revolution (the color, not the new line), it is the perfect color and quality, and I hate that they quit making it. I still need to try F-Bomb (it is suppose to be the closest to the color Revolution in the new line). If you get on Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics website and look at their lip products it gives you a description and there is one that lists that it has a blue undertone, forget the name of it and haven't tried it myself yet, but I know everyone loves that brand.
