The One Makeup Product You Can’t Do Without? We Vote for Lipstick!

Ask any woman what her one makeup must-wear product is, and chances are she’ll answer “Mascara”. And while we agree that mascara perks up the eyes and gives a fresh-faced finish, it doesn’t quite bring the glam, does it?

We’ve seen runway models season after season strutting down the catwalks in nothing more than a powerful blast of lip colour. So we asked ourselves: could lipstick be the one small change that really makes all the difference?

We did an experiment and all came into work one day sans makeup (it wasn’t an easy sell, let me tell you). After slicking on our boldest lippie colours, we hit the posing wall:

Alexandra gets fresh with fuschia…

…while Tammy’s berry-hued lips make her tawny tones glow.

Resident redhead Michelle goes for a saturated coral colour…

…and Claire plucks a cherry-tomato red.

Tell us what you think of these makeup transformations – would you be bold enough to try this look? One lucky commenter will win a prize!

Makes makeup removal at the end of the day so much easier. I still love my liquid eye liner and mascara (so I don't think I'd ever give them up long term), but it was a fun experiment I'll be sure to do again.

I may not always get it right, but its still fun to try. I think Alexandra's Fuschia color makes her beautiful completion glow even more then it normally does. I agree that Tammy's berry-hued makes her glow as well. Michelle's coral color lip makes her beautiful eye's stand out even more and Claire's cherry-tomato red shows off her cheek bones and her cute dimple chin. They were all good color choices for them as far as I'm concerned.
