True Fashion for 2010: Lipstick


Want a subtle way to update your look without overhauling your wardrobe or draining your bank account? Try one of my personal staples: lipstick.

The brighter the better this season: pinks, purples, tangerines. Work it. Not used to wearing lipstick? Wear it around the house until you forget about it and then rock it in the real world. Accessorize the lips with a clean face, light blush, and mascara'd eyes. Lipstick is the one stop shop for a more glamorous look day or night.

Skittish about picking out the right shade? Afraid to look like Bozo the clown? Then spend the extra money to get a designer shade at a department store. Ask the sales attendant to help you pick one out. Try them
all on and make sure you look at yourself outside in the sunlight. It can change the look completely and you want to be sure that you can wear it during the day, otherwise what's the point? Too much color for day? Wear a light layer over lip balm.
