looking for a good warm red...fresh moroccan?

[scentofevil]

hi everybody! prom is fast approaching (geez, what a dweeb i am) and i am in need of a good, warm red lipstick that doesn't turn a hideous fuschia on me. i prefer something with a bit of brown in it. no mattes, please! i love stuff like Ornamental lustreglass and Gitane lipglass....

i was seriously considering fresh moroccan. how does it wear?

i've also heard good things about Rage and Sophisto....

suggestions please?

Fresh Moroccan is my favorite warm red, and it goes very well with ornamental lustreglass too.

Fresh moroccan is pretty versatile, depending on how heavily you apply it, if you use a gloss with it, etc.

thanks! any tips for bringing out the bronze shimmer in it?

and someone on MUA rec'd Ruby Darling to me....it sounds so enticing...of course, it's LE

but is it similar to FM?

I'm not sure about Ruby Darling.

With Fresh Moroccan, if you apply then blot your lips, the shimmer stands out a lot more, and adding something like ornamental would also help that stand out more.
