By now you’re probably aware of the fact that the hot lip color for spring/summer 2010 is orange. It started with Prada’s spring/summer runway, and fashion and beauty lovers everywhere have been replicating that look ever since then. From shocking electric tangerine lipstick to sheer melon gloss, here are my expert tips for rocking the season’s juiciest lip colors:
1. If You Go Bold, Leave the Rest Bare
When wearing a neon lip color, it’s best to leave the rest of the face natural. Now, I’m not talking about completely naked-natural. Rather, go through your usual foundation/concealer routine, and just go easy on the eyeshadow and blush (observe the 2/3 rule, below). I like using eyeshadow base and a dab of creamy blush. Also, unless you’ve really got the ingenue look down, don’t forget the mascara! I recommend tightlining with a dark brown liner and following up with several coats of black mascara. This creates the perfect palette for the season’s boldest lips. Try:
NVEY Eco Organic Lipstick in 363
Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pure Shine in #94 Blood Orange
2. Match Your Cheeks to Your Lips
Whether you’re dusting on bronzer or using a creamy cheek stain, it’s crucial to ensure that your cheeks match your lips. Be aware of the fact that your orange lipstick will have either cool or warm undertones, and be sure to match from there. Don’t believe me that orange lipstick can have cool undertones? See this photo of January Jones and her creamy cool lips and cheeks.
Warm Undertones, Try Sisley Paris Hydrating Lipstick in Intense Coral
Cool Undertones, Try Laura Mercier Creme Lip Colour in Passion
3. Observe the 2/3 Rule
Whether going for a bold lip or a sheer gloss, you should only emphasize 2 out of your 3 main features (eyes, cheeks, lips). This means either highliting your eyes and lips or your cheeks and lips. It doesn’t matter which you choose, but this is the best way to make sure you don’t overdo it. For me, I find that I always need a little extra emphasis on my eyes. So for this trend, I use a shimmering eyeshadow base all over the lid like Trish McEvoy Base Essentials and a thicker liner line and lots of mascara. Expert Tip: Place blush/bronzer on browbone in place of shadow. It really opens up the eyes and makes them pop.
I hopped on the orange lipstick trend when I saw the beautiful J Crew collection online. All the models were sporting a bold, beautiful orange lipstick.
I searched for the perfect orange shade and read about NARS “Heat Wave.” I also spotted “It Girl 06″ from the Sephora Rouge Cream lipstick line that was practically identical. I love it, and think it is a flattering shade on almost anyone!
