Lip a L'Orange

From vivid neons to soft corals, Spring/Summer 2014 is all about the orange lip colours. It may not feel like summer just yet, but with lips this bright, maybe the weather will take the hint?

The lip colours in the SS14 shows ranged from matte to glossy, and everything in between, but the shade was usually bold and in-your-face. This colour can work amazingly for an exciting twist on an evening look - I love Mac's "Morange" - just make sure to keep everything else simple, nothing more than dewy skin and a bit of mascara.

However, sometimes we need to make adjustments when translating beauty trends to our everyday lives. Amidst our hectic schedules, and those endless cups of coffee, trying to make such a bold lip colour work in real life can be difficult (and messy!)
Here are some options for a more toned down, chaos-friendly version of this look:


Revlon Matte Balm Stain in "Audacious"


Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté in #32 "Corail Jalouse"


Revlon Lip Butter in "Juicy Papaya"
