BEAUTY: my lipsticks for the dark skin

Good morning!!! You're also a real lady who can not do without lipstick. Well, I'm also the same and especially because I find it nice to handle almost any color with my dark skin. I say almost all because some light colors definitely doesn't work if you have a dark skin . Your face will look faded out. I have tried a number of colors of Essence, Catrice and Flormar and they may or may not say which fit well with us.

Essence and Catrice are very popular worldwide, so they do not need to presentation, but Flormar Cosmetics I knew only from Italy and Turkey. But since September 2013 (or thereabouts) Flormar has opened a store in Amsterdam in my Kalverstraat and to my great suprise and joy they also opened a store on July 3rd, 2014 in Enschede.

First I want to warn you! For hygienic reason do not use the lipstick, lipgloss or make-up from somebody else. It's important to save this in your brains because when you got struggles with your skin...than think what you did before...and what you where using. All bacteria and viruses can sit anywhere. If you want to use the lipstick from someone els, than you have to scrape a thin layer off the top with a spatula, than you have to clean it with a soaked tissue with alcohol. Now you are sure that the lipstick is clean.
