I’m not really a summer person. I like the darkness of winter where it finally becomes ok for me to wear deeper coloured make-up. Little kids stop throwing stones as the “evil witch who has come for their souls” and just shrug me off as the moody make-upaholic. Winter cloaks all I tell you, and it even makes my love for darker colours tolerable. My newest love for the winter is NARS Tamango.
First off, let me start by describing to you how wonderful the colour is. It’s not a true red, it is a brick red with too much brown in it to be called that. However, the combination of the red and the brown form this gorgeous warm and glamorous colour. The texture too makes this lipstick very wearable as it is not opaque or matte. To me, the colour can be sheered out, but it cam be applied to have a strong impact as well. The formula is moisturizing so my lips don’t peel after a few hours (I face this problem a lot). To me, this helps me wear lipsticks in the winter since my lips really can’t survive under drying lipsticks.
Tamango is the perfect winter shade and while it would look great on lighter desi women, it would look particularly fabulous on us melanin-enhanced folks.
