My Romantic Shades - My perfect Red


For YEARS I have been trying to find my best red lipstick and my best 'romantic' shade.  I feel that in the past, I've come close to discovering my best red, but was mislead when I was draped in various colour systems.... UNTIL.... I had my personal palette done by John Kitchener.  My romantic reds, according to Kitchener, don't really fit a 'seasonal type' perfectly, although I feel I a lot of Spring influence in my palette.  My romantics range from a bright warm burgundy, to a light warm pink, to a medium coral-pink and salmon and also even some light warm plum shades:



My favourite romantic shades from the palette are these warm bright burgundy shades and the light warm coral pinks.  I of course was so excited to try and find the perfect red lipstick in my range of colours and finally found one that matches perfectly.  It's a shade called Grenadine by Lise Watier.  As you'll be able to see in the next photo, it's an exact match to my first page of romantic reds.


Here is a photo of my full range of romantics:


For those of you who follow seasonal analysis types, this doesn't 100% fit into a specific season, although the more I get to know my palette, the more and more it resonates to a light spring type of feel - a 65% spring palette with 20% summer, 10% winter and 5% autumn, although Kitchener calls these Lively Bright, Subtle Blended, Striking Contrast and Earthly Rich.  

I am SO incredibly happy since I got me personalized palette by John Kitchener,  It has literally changed my entire life.  My struggle for finding a 'season' is over and now I'm able to focus on putting my best self forward.  I highly, highly recommend contacting him on Facebook to get a virtual analysis done - you won't regret it!
