Raging red

Both of us have been experimenting with red lipsticks lately, trying to play down the often too-serious appearance that accompanies the bright hue to match our still young college personalities. We've recently found a great way to pursue the raging trend of red lips, and of course, for a great cause as well.

In 1994 (when we were wee babies!), M.A.C, the coveted Canadian makeup brand with a cult-like following, created the M.A.C. AIDS Fund to support organizations and programs working towards improving the lives of those affected by HIV/AIDS. Every single penny of the selling price of the MAF products go towards programs like Community Grants, Women's Initiative, and Kids Helping Kids.

The original Viva Glam lipstick, above, is our favorite, but there are more beautiful hues (including a playful pink by Nicki) on sale at the M.A.C. website here. At the price of $15, supporting a great cause and staying on-trend with beauty has never been easier or more rewarding. We're successfully convinced ourselves of this too- Viva Glam is in our shopping carts right now.

Always looking into the meré,
