Lipstick is back with a bang for summer 2009. The nude and pale inspiration of the 1960s from Christian Dior and Channel is back along with rich berry hues that provide a sheer wash of color. Spring and summer is the time of the year when everything is very soft and tender, keep your make-up close to that and you will be in the wave!
Nude and pale lipstick works best in summers. Lip gloss is a possible decision when it is used just to add shine. Glitter, sparkles, and heavy pigments are no longer in trend. But bright lipstick is the way to go this summer. If you feel like having minimal makeup, you can still make a statement with a powerful, vivid lipstick.
This summer be ready to look sexy, bright and charming with deep red lips! Wear your favorite red lipstick and make sure that it’s really deep red. Bold red lipstick _channeling the seductive 1940s screen goddess, Shades should range from tangerine hues through to deeper reds, with fire-engine red still a favorite. Orange, fuchsia, bright pink are great picks too. Though pink lips on the 2008 runways were mostly quite subtle, bolder pinks will definitely have their impact on makeup trends this year.
Or you may opt for the complete opposite – nude lips. For such nude effect apply some toner base at your lips and only after that apply your lipstick. Apply fresh tone or nude colour lip liner on the upper lip while you keep your lips together, no smile. This way you can see if the line is going where you would want it to enhance your natural lips. On the lower lip its better to smile and apply the liner along the lip line as well as dab with your finger, starting from the centre bit of lipstick colour. Dabbing the lipstick will keep your lips looking natural and lipstick sheer.” You can achieve this look by outlining lips with nude lip liner along with filling in the rest of the lips,” says Moss. “After applying the lip liner, put on Soft lips sheer lip conditioning balm with SPF 20 to help condition your lips and protect them from sun damage. And if you’re looking for a little shine, apply your favourite lip gloss over the lip balm.” – Belinda Moss.
But what I like the best this summer is that you can change your look every moment .Enjoy this summer, try new images and stay beautiful.
