Lip Service: Latest Lipstick Trends Pt. 3 - Burgundy

The red lip still lives just in a deeper hue. When dealing with burgundy go bold or go home. Make sure your lips are exfoliated and moisturized and you fill in your lips with a lipliner to make the intensity of the colour last for as long as possible. This lip look speaks volumes so keep eyes and cheeks minimal. Keep the skin looking fresh and your brows groomed to polish off this look.

My pick:  MAC Cosmetics Cremestick liner in Red Enriched.

Lip Service: Latest Lipstick Trends Pt. 2 - Fine Wine

That red wine stain after a glass of Shiraz doesn't have to be embarrasing. Do it on purpose this season with a wine coloured lipstain. Lipstains have a more natural finish than lipglosses and lipsticks and in most cases are more longwearing too. If long lasting liquid lipsticks that dry out your lips are not your thing, reach for a lip stain.

Go ahead! Enjoy that glass of Bordeaux--just make sure its on your lips and not your teeth.

My pick: Cover Girl Outlast Lipstain in Plum Pout.
(Available at most drugstores)

Lip Service: Latest Lipstick Trends pt.1 - Fierce Fuchsia

Fuchsia makes a comeback from the '80s this season. This pink should stand alone so try to avoid pairing it with a fuchsia-toned blush or putting a sparkly gloss over top.

Keeping it matte makes amps up the sophistication of this bold hue--unless you are going as Barbie this Halloween.

Going out? Smudge a little black eyeliner across the upper and lower lashline for a lived in look--just keep the hair neat or even pulled back to avoid looking like Courtney Love.


My pick: Kat Von D Painted Love Lipstick in Backstage Bambi
(only available at Sephora)
