Tangerine Lips

Tangerine lips

A color I’m seeing on lips lately is an orangish pink color, almost a tangerine.  I think it’s a great color that with the right shade could compliment any skin tone.  I think this trend would especially flatter women with fairer skin.   You can do this in a subtle way with a sheer gloss, or go for the full effect with a lipstick.  Either way I think this is a sweet, yet spicy look.  I have yet to try out the look on myself, but I plan to soon as I already have my eye on a certain shade (Stila in Miranda).  Here are some other colors that might work for you:  Dior Addict gloss in Raffia Orange 347, Covergirl Outlast in Coral Satin and NARS lip lacquer in Capucine.

*Update:  Instyle just featured this trend on their site today and they even show cased the Dior Addict gloss I suggested!!  http://www.instyle.com/instyle/package/general/photos/0,,20057671,00.html

About Cupcakes Taste Nice

My lust for beauty products has been around since I was a kid. I always wanted the most eye catching packaging and the sweetest scents. As a preteen I could not wait to get my first pimple so that I could try out the different acne products that were marketed to me in magazines and on TV. As I got older I just loved the girlie side of wanting to look and feel pretty. I love taking a shower on Saturday morning and having a plethora of products to choose from depending on my mood that day. I anticipate my beauty and style magazines coming in the mail so I can read and research new products. I even spend hours on the internet searching for factual reviews of the latest and greatest products.
