A bright lipstick is the easiest way to update your look for summer. Red is the obvious choice whether it is a classic post box hue like Kate B’s , has blue undertones a la Leona or an orange base like Cameron’s , it will smarten up an otherwise frivolous summer outfit. Alternatively, experiment with a juicy orange or punchy pink like Kirsten and Lauren . If the dense shades of a lipstick applied with a lip brush or straight from the bullet are too much, take your cue from Maggie and work a pastel pink into your lips with your finger to create a softer, stained look that is effortless but still packs a punch.
