Tangerine Lip Pose Off: Comment to Win!

Posted by ChickAdvisor Team | Monday January 16, 2012108 comments


Pantone's colour for 2012 was recently announced as Tangerine Tango; since being introduced to the colour, we've gone bananas for tangerine! First we tried it out on our nails and loved the results! We also dug up a few options for tangerine makeup but weren't sure if this look was actually wearable... so we decided to Pose Off in Tangerine by experimenting with different shades and skin tones. We invited a friend along, Xolisa, who was kind enough to lend us her time and our guinea pig for the day- special thanks goes out to her!

Orange you glad we're here to test out these trends for you? 

Sorry guys, couldn't resist the pun... 

Lorna


Lorna used Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in Give Dreams (C$13.00) with MAC Lipglass in Ola Mango (C$17.50) to create a red-orange with pinkish hues. The bold colour in contrast to her minimal makeup lets her lips standout to create a statement without being overwhelming. 

Alexandra


Alexandra used Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in Grandma (US$13.00) for an opaque and bright orange lip. This one isn't for everyone but Alexandra likes the peachy undertones for a lip that can be transitioned from day to night. 

Mandy 
 

Mandy used MAC Lustre Lipstick in Surprise (C$17.50) for an intense orange lip that complements her subtle pink blush and basic eye makeup. We like that this look is all about the orange: it makes the shade really pop on her olive skin.

Xolisa


Xolisa used MAC Amplified Creme Lipstick in Morange (C$17.50) for a lip that is perfect for her skintone. We think this shade is sophisticated and chic on Xolisa. We love the tangerine lip because it brings a little something extra to a basic look and in this case, it's no exception! 
 
What do you think of the tangerine lip on us? Is this one a keeper or should we ditch the look? Leave us a comment telling us who you like the tangerine lip on best by January 22nd, 2012 for your chance to win!

I think it looks good on Mandy because it complements her skin tone somehow. Sadly I think its not a color most girls can pull off so well. :( I guess I will stick to tangerine shirts lol

I actually really love the orange lipstick trend. Mandy's looks super fresh and pretty and it makes me want to try this trend myself.

Mandy's entire look looks great and her tang looks the best against her skin tone, in my opinion

While I think all the ladies look lovely, I would say the shade Mandy is wearing matches her skin tone the best!

Everyone's looks amazing, but I think that Alexandra's is the best. Now that I've seen the color on a range of skin tones, I'm tempted to try it myself. :)

I love the color on Mandy and Alexandra. Mandy's makeup is flawless like always and Alexandra's lip color looks really natural on her. It really enhances her natural lip color.
