Beauty Bits: Pucker Worthy Pinks For Valentine's Day
Get your smooches ready, girls. Valentine's Day is just around the corner so we scouted out some of this season's hottest lip shades in perfect pinks, guaranteed to make your guy swoon.
We asked Brooklyn-based cosmetics expert and Lime Crime founder Doe Deere for her best tip on wearing a proper pink: "There is no better time to wear a bright lip than Valentine's Day! Before you start, make sure your lips are kissably soft by prepping them with lip balm and exfoliating gently with a Q-tip. Define shape and fill in with a matching pencil and apply lipstick directly from the bullet. Blot to remove excess, re-apply and blot again. Top with clear lip gloss for maximum "wow" effect, or leave it matte to last you through many smooches!"
Lime Crime's Opaque Lipstick in "Countessa Fluorescent": This super creamy, super pigmented neon pink gives hot and heavy coverage. The part lipstick, part lip stain formula gives it the ultimate SWAC seal of approval, and the unicorn hologram-embellished tube... Well, that confirms it: we think we're in love.
$16
Space NK, 217 Columbus Ave.; 212-362-2840.
MAC's Lipstick in "Girl About Town": Finally a solid magenta -- sans undertones -- that can flatter every skin shade without washing you out with the winter blues. A creamy finish without a trace of shine or shimmer gives you a sophisticated shade.
$14.50
MAC, 46th & Broadway and locations throughout the city.
L'Oréal Paris True Match Naturale Gentle Lip Conditioner in "Soft Bloom": A demure choice for the sweetest of Valentine's, this mineral-based lip treatment provides a sheer wash of petal pink with a moisturizing formula of Sweet Almond Oil and Vitamin E.
$9.95
Duane Reade, locations everywhere.
Tarte's LipSurgence Natural Lip Luster in "Pouty": The latest in Tarte's popular LipSurgence pen-shaped lip tint comes with a touch of sparkle and plenty of naturally restorative properties that keep this a favorite among beauty counter regulars. Pouty is a rich glittering berry that is just pleading to be picked.
$24
Sephora, 711 Lexington Ave. and locations throughout the city.
