Red Earth cosmetics shop

There’s something about a red lipstick that screams sassy. It’s an instant pick-me-up on those blah days. It’s alluring, plus unlike your favourite Cadbury bar, it has zero calories.

The new Red Earth cosmetics shop has lip colours, nail polishes and blushes inspired by the colour of passion. Located at the swanky Atria mall, this Australian import is part of the Espirit Group.

You can create smoky eyes by teaming their kohl sticks with eye shadows in reds, browns or midnight blues. Or go for lipsticks in vixen reds, or glosses in fruity pinks or peaches. And the brand’s Secret Potion will give you a sun-kissed glow that may earn you the title of office flirt.

If you can’t settle on what not to buy, a friendly staff is ready to help you out.

So don’t despair next time the courier boy spills coffee on your favourite trousers in the elevator. Experts say if you’re feeling blue, buy red.
