Yesterday was our final day in the Seven Reds in Seven Days series.

We wanted deep, wine red lips for this outfit so we chose TRUE Pure Lip Color in Empress. Because we were going to a dinner party, we wanted a color that could last through cocktails, conversation, and, of course, dinner. This lipstick formula is on the dry side, and tends to be longer lasting than some others.

After dinner, we excused ourself to the powder room to see how Empress held up and we’re happy to report it didn’t let us down—even after repeated dabbing with a napkin throughout dinner. Of course, it wasn’t perfect, but we could have easily sat through dessert without feeling self-conscious.

Stay tuned later today for a final report of  Seven Reds in Seven Days!
