Hi guys i need to buy some red lipstick and concealer and wondered if you could recommend a good shade for me (lipstick) and a great brand for undereye coverage.

Not bothered about cost but want to get the right product first time rather then spend money on something only to find i have to spend more money on something else.

Thought you lovely ladies and gents would be the people to ask

Hi Jane,
The best thing to do is visit some make up counters and try out different colours til you find the right ones. As a suggestion regarding concealer I like The Body Shop Lightening Touch. If you're lookingto cover up dark shadows then go for one that has peachy tones to it. Otherwise it's just a case of trying them out and seeing which you prefer.

Hope that helps.. a bit, at least!

The best concealer for under the eyes ive used is Touche eclat YSL or Dior skin flash great for hiding shadows without piling loads or product on. Dior also have a great range of lipstick called Diorific that are long lasting and very matt great for shoots.
hope this helps

Pop along to Mac in Nottingham and have a look at their studio fix concealers.  I use those in my kit most of the time, they give great coverage.  A great red lipstick is also by Mac 'Ruby Woo' or 'Russian Red'.  Chanel also do a couple of really nice reds, 'Sexy', 'Lover' but both of those are blue toned so try them out first.

Bobbi Brown (House of Fraser, Vic Centre) do great concealers too and are worth a look.

Hope that helps a bit.

My personal opinion on Touche eclat YSL is that its overated! I prefer Laura Mercier or Mac, i agree that Mac lipsticks are great too.

I get my Laura Mercier from Space NK in Nottingham

Thanks guys... i don't really like MAC for ethical reasons and it is annoying as all i hear is how great they are! lol I hear Dior and Max Factor are good too? I use a lot of No7 and bodyshop but find sometimes it is not best for shoots.

If you come out of Victoria Centre (at the Boots and John Lewis end) and cross the road, walk down that street (can't remember what it's called, but past McDonalds, Zara, Monsoon etc) the arcade is on your right and you would turn right to go to Mac.  Just past Monsoon there is a street on the left (I think it's Pelham St, but could be wrong), go up there and Space NK is on the right.
