Hot Makeup Trend: Orange Lipstick

Posted by Cathy | Monday February 28, 201114 comments

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?

I really like the look, but I feel like it is really limited to your skin tone. I don't think many skin tones can pull it off, but I would love to try it! (I'm usually into pinks/reds)

I think I could try this look with a subtle shade like the one on Heidi Klum, otherwise I don't think I would be brave enough to rock an orange lip.
