The Sultry Season: Shiseido Natural Red (RD629) Lipstick

Shiseido Natural Red (RD629) Perfect Rouge Sheer Lip Color ($25.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a muted, played-down semi-sheer red with a glossy sheen–it almost looks like a gloss when applied, but it is most definitely a lipstick.  It’s moisturizing, and it’s very comfortable to wear, because it’s lightweight and creamy.  Shiseido’s lipsticks are scent- and taste-free, too.

Is this the right red for you? Would you wear it?

The Sultry Season is a series of posts featuring deep, rich shades of brown, berry, plum, and wine lipsticks and lipglosses — just right for autumn — that runs through October 2010.
