Hot Makeup Trend: Orange Lipstick

Posted by Cathy | Monday February 28, 2011

Remember those vibrant lip colours we saw on the NYC Spring/Summer 2011 runways? Warmer weather is right around the corner, and it's time to start updating your makeup bag with one of the hottest lip colours this season: Orange.

Milly by Michelle Smith, Fendi, Marc by Marc Jacobs

Orange lipstick is flattering on almost all skin tones and best suits a clean face with minimal (or no) eye makeup.

For statement-making orange lipstick, we suggest getting your hands on one of these:

Revlon Moon Drops Lipstick in 'Orange Flip' $8ish, YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick $30, MAC neon orange lipstick $14.50

Now before you start freaking out about Crayola-coloured lips, know that you don't have to go as bold as the runway looks to get in on this trend. Take a cue from celebs who are wearing more subtle orange tones.

Tessa Thompson, Heidi Klum, Agyness Deyn

We like:

Lise Watier Rouge Gourmand $19, Quo Luminous Gloss Stick in Glow $12, MAKE UP FOR EVER Rouge Artist Intense in Satin Bright Orange $19

Will you wear orange lipstick this Spring?
