Kiss goodbye to MS

As if we needed an excuse to sport a red lip

In case you haven’t heard, today is World MS Day – the only global campaign that aims to raise awareness of Multiple Sclerosis and how it affects the lives of more than two million people around the world.

Want to get involved but not sure how? Well, we have just the way for you to show your support in a way we know you’ll LOVE – by wearing a vibrant, popping red lipstick. Kiss Goodbye to MS, an initiative of MS Australia, is encouraging you to wear red lipstick (or if that’s too much for you, sport some seriously red gear) and raise funds for vital research into a cure for MS and for services for people living with the disease.

Head to Kiss Goodbye to MS to find out more…

Ah! I had no idea. I'm wearing red socks though, so that'll be my contribution.
Also, I love the shade Selena Gomez has on.

Thankfully I love a red lip and usually wear it for work, as the ladies above all show it looks amazing and really lifts your face. Thanks for making us aware of MS day BH.

I remember hearing about this last year only through bh forums but hadn't heard about anywhere else ;( would be good if it was promoted more because it is a great cause.

I had no idea, but would maybe have given it a go. I'm stuck inside in my trackies doing an assignment for uni =/ . Have always been a bit shy to wear red lips though, its something I would never be sure if I had it right..
