Hot summer lips 2011



Nothing screams summer louder than bright lip shades of cantaloupe and watermelon. Get ready to ditch your lip liners ladies, as this summers’ trend has given the seventies a modern organic spin.  With textures ranging from ultra matte to super slick, there is a wearable lip trend for everyone.

Quick lip tips:

Moist, smooth lips not only hold color best, they look great too.
Make sure you keep your lips hydrated by drinking plenty of water and moisturizing your lips in the morning and after you brush your teeth at night.
Avoid over-exposure to the sun. The skin on our lips is delicate and more susceptible to burns, blisters and skin cancer. Opt for lip products with a minimum sunscreen of SPF 15.

Today's lipsticks are better formulated than those of the past, making lip liner pretty redundant in most circumstances.

If you have thin lips, opt for sheer glosses in the bright summer shades rather than opaque shades.
