So-easy summer lip trends snagged from the red carpet

Check these out, too...

  • Fash face off: Selena vs. Taylor
  • Our take on Demi Lovato's latest album
  • Beauty Spy: Fresh faced and simple Ann Marie E.
  • Exactly what to wear to your summer job interview
We’re snagging perfect pout ideas from our fave red-carpet rockstars, Emma, Taylor and Selena. Summer’s all about easy beauty and perfect pairings. So whether you wanna go nude, hot pink or vibrant red, we’ve got your instant style guide. Read on!
 
First, some tips on how to prep your pout and apply your lip color!
Tip 1: Use a lip scrub or a mixture of sugar and olive oil to get rid of any flaky pieces on your pucker.
Tip 2: Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!  Use a lip balm to make sure your lips don’t dry out.
Tip 3: When applying your lip color, use a lip brush to make sure you don’t end up with bright pink on your teeth and face!

 

Punchy pink

Emma Stone totally works the bright pink lip look by keeping the rest of her makeup neutral and toned down.  Use a lil’ blush to brighten up your cheeks so that your lip color doesn’t drain your complexion.  Next, sweep liquid liner on your upper lids to define your eyes.  You can even try adding wings to your outer corners for a cool, Hollywood look.  Emma perfectly balances out her bright lips with a fresh face and poppin’ eyes! 
 

Get the look:

Smashbox Be Legendary Lipstick in Fuschia Flash Matte, $19, sephora.com

Rimmel London Glam Eyes Professional Liquid Liner, $9, asos.com

Rimmel Volume Flash the Max Mascara, $11, asos.com

MAC Mineralize Skinfinish, $29, nordstrom.com

 

Natural beauty

 

Selena’s got the natural look down, but adds some pop with colorful eyeliner.  Apply a nude lipstick and bronzer to get a glowy look.  Then, line your eyes with dark blue eyeliner to make your peepers pop!  Smudge it up a little bit, add some mascara and you’ll look glam and natural all at the same time.

 

Get the Look:

Summerston Lipstick in Nude, $15, jackwillis.com

Revlon ColorStay Eyeliner in Navy, $12, revlon.com 

MAC Extended Play Lash Mascara, $15, nordstrom.com

H&M Bronze Powder, $7, hm.com


Radiant in red

Taylor Swift always knows how to get the perfect red-carpet look, and recently she’s been workin’ ruby lips! The secret to red lips is to keep everything else simple, making your lips the focus of your makeup.  Add some blush/bronzer to keep your natural flush.  Taylor added heavy lashes and liner for big drama, but you can tone it down with just liner on your upper lash line and a swipe of mascara.  Taylor’s secret for sparkling eyes?  Shimmery white liner in her inner corners.  Try a soft pencil and lightly smudge to get glowy!  

 

Get the look:

Smashbox ‘Be Legendary Lipstick’ in Grenadine, $19, nordstrom.com

Nyx Cosmetics Tango with Bronzer Powder, $40, nelly.com

Noir Cosmetics Lifeline Liquid Eyeliner in True Black, $18, beautybar.com

Hi so my mom is jamacian and my dad is italian and i'm dark like my mom(think gabriel union and megan good skin tone)can you give me some lipstick or lipstain colors for me and some that are affordable thanks!




Hey girlie,

You're so lucky, because your skin tone looks GREAT with dramatic lipstick colors! Burgundy, dark chocolate brown, and plum will look best on you. For a funky summer look, you could try a bright bubble gum pink. Since you mentioned her though, try Google searching pictures of Gabrielle Union. She usually keeps it natural with a champagne lipgloss or medium warm brown lipstick. I think that's my favorite look, because it lets your natural beauty shine through! Smile My fave lipstick brand is L'Oreal Colour Riche - http://www.walmart.com/ip/L-Oreal-Paris-Colour-Riche-Lip-Colour-Lipstick/10314131
