Red is a must-have this holiday season!
According to a recent survey commissioned by Target, more than 60 percent of women and men think that when a woman adds an extra punch of color to her beauty palette, she’s signaling that she feels fabulous about herself – and after all, added confidence is the ultimate accessory.
Additional Target poll findings:
o Almost 40 percent of women who wear red lipstick put on the touch of rouge to feel feminine, while 37 percent do so to feel sexy.
o To dress up an outfit, 44 percent of women wear high heels and 61 percent choose to get their hair done.
o The majority of men and women polled (33 percent) named Angelina Jolie as the celebrity who has the most sought-after red lips.
o 61 percent of respondents perceive wearing red on lips or nails as neither “naughty” or “nice” – showing that there are no stereotypes associated with this versatile shade.
