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!

It looks very beautiful on all of them! But I lipstick is the one makeup item I rarely use..so no,I would not try this.

I'm not bold enough. I'm more of a shimmery/neutral shade person. I think the girls look good though, just nothing I could pull off personally. :)

I love bold lipsticks and all the lasies wore their chosen shades well. I agree, lipstick is one of the makeup products I would not be able to live without. You could even multitask with it and use a dab on your cheeks as a cream blush!

My colouring is closest to Alexandras but I prefer the berry color of Tammys lips > I actually like a dusty rose lipstick best!

I'd be a little wary of doing this because I'm so pale I look sick, and I do have dark circles under my eyes. I'd probably go out with a dab of concealer and the lipstick instead of just the lipstick alone!

I really love how you ladies look though. Lipstick really is all you need!

I really like Alexandra with fuschia.. but I don't know if I could rock that... but it looks really good on her! I could do like a cherry-tomato red I think... but I do agree.. all these women look good with the lipstick and the pop of color goes a long way!

I would totally try Michelle's coral. Really liking that shade this season. You guys all look great!

I think all these's lipstick colors really suit their wearer.I think I would want to try Alexandra's fushia color for the fall and Tammy's berry look.

I think that all the women look great and totlally agree with ChickAdvisor that lipstick is the most essential beauty need. Lipstick is the only makeup that can dramatically change a woman's looks as all the other types of makeup, such as blush and mascara etc are mostly useful to enhance our looks only. I normally don't wear alot of makeup...and solely rely on lipstick for my on the go beauty look. ChickAdvisor, you have it right on!!!!.

I think that a lot of the colors are far too bold for me personally. I liked the more understated berry colour as it looked more natural to me
