Get Lip Ready for Spring/Summer 2012


The season lips are taking a bold focus. Colour is the name of the game and is sure to score you extra points for spring flings and summer loves ;)

From Runway to Walkway, here are my top 5 Spring 2012 Lip Trends
  
TANGERINE TANGO
This seasons "It" colour adds sexy citrus look to every makeup style, from clean looks to smokey eyes. This colour is also perfect for colour blocking your makeup to your bright clothing colours.



NOT YOUR MARY'S POPPIN PINK

Soft pinks have always been apart of spring beauty trends. This season add some sass to your classic "tea party wear" by pairing a bright neon pink lip with that soft pastel pink dress! 




DOUBLE DUTCH COLOUR
Can we just have a moment on how awesome this is! Mix and match your lips like a mood ring. Pair a bright orange top with a rich purple or pink. The possibilities are endless! Keep the rest of the face clean but structured with a dusting of matte (i.e no shimmer) bronzer


GRAPE FLAVORED POUTS

Vampy lips + soft pastels = yes. Pair this lip with soft clothing both in texture and shade for a pleasant surprise from the usual "goth" expectations from such a bold lip.


BOLD BERRY
A rich deep red....need I say more? :)



They may seem overwhelming to the every day girl, but don't be afraid! Pair these lips with soft barely there makeup and a few coats of mascara. Play with texture, use tinted glosses or lip balms in trend shades for a different look.

Most importantly, no lip colour would be appealing on dry chapped lips. Ensure that your lips are smooth and un-chapped with soothing lip products and lip exfoliators if necessary.

Which look do you think you would try?
