My first bright pink lipstick experience!! Siren!

Okay so, Amalia (Dear Makeup Diary) has me hooked on these Covergirl lipsticks!!  She mentioned something about me doing a bolder lip and I think she mentioned Siren.  I've had this in my hands on 2 or 3 different occasions but I put it back...I kept chickening out haha.  I really have been wanting to try a bright pink, but it's sooo out of my comfort zone of mostly nudes, lighter pinks and peach or coral shades.  So last night, I had to run to Target and I decided I was going to buy it this time!!  Here's the swatch:
It is such a gorgeous shade!!  Not to mention, these lipsticks are just awesome.  So I tried it on last night....my makeup looks terrible so please ignore it lol (I worked all day AND was running late, so I had to do my brows in the terribly lit bathroom in my work haha...they were BAD, I mean really BAD lol).  I think I liked how it looked...although I would definitely need a different color of blush oh and different e/s haha.  Ok...here it goes!!

So...what do you guys think??  A good color for me to experiment with or should I forget it?  ;)  I actually was kind of a weenie about it too...it seemed soo bright to me, so I put some Viva glam gaga 2 l/g over it lol.  I'd love to hear what you guys think!!

And here is a picture of my crazy bengal cat in my purse haha...I thought it was funny, him all snuggled up in my purse!

I think he is handsome!!  =D  I hope everyone is having a great day!
