Best lipstick colors


TangerineFashion designer du jour Jason Wu made a statement on recent runways, topping off his ladylike designs with neon orange lips. Diane Kendal and her MAC Cosmetics team created the electric pout by adding a layer of Neo Orange loose powder on top of a scarlet lipstick ($14.50-$20, maccosmetics.com). Tom Ford’s Wild Ginger and True Coral are rich splurge-worthy ready-to-wear shades ($48, neimanmarcus.com), while Bobbi Brown’s new Neons and Nudes collection includes an Atomic Orange lipstick, a juicy gloss called Citrus 2, and a pretty palette of subtle eye shadows perfect to pair with a shocking lip ($23, bobbibrown.com). Pump up the color on your pout, but keep everything else simple for a fresh modern contrast.
The best red lip makeup for your skin tone
FuchsiaPurple reigned on other spring 2012 runways, like Prabal Gurung’s show which accented models’ lips with an ombre effect. If you're a fan of plum or brown-based lipsticks, it'll be easy to make the jump to a vibrant berry hue. L'Oreal's Colour Riche in 'Sea Fleur' and Maybelline's Super Stay Gloss Stain in 'Fresh Fuchsia' are two favorite finds from the drugstore (L'Oreal Colour Riche $8.95, lorealparisusa.com; Maybelline Super Stay Gloss $9.99, target.com) while more daring divas can venture deep into purple territory with Illamasqua's Resist and Atomic, or Lime Crime's Centrifuchsia (Illamasqua Lipstick $22, sephora.com; Lime Crime Lipstick $15.99, limecrimemakeup.com).
