New season, new look! It’s time to update your summer makeup look and the easiest way is by changing up your lip treatments. Keep your pout looking fresh this season with these four easy tools. Here are some of my favorites to take with you poolside, in the water, or to a sexy soiree.
How to Do Warm Weather Lips
- Lip Stain – If you want that “just-bitten” look with long-staying power, a lip stain is the answer. This is perfect if you’re planning to be in the water or outdoors on a hot day. A lip stain won’t smudge or melt off, making it the ideal warm-weather color application. Top with a little clear lip balm or gloss for some shine. Try Revlon’s Just Bitten Lip Stain + Balm in Crave or Elf Lip Stain in Berry Blush.
- Lip Balm – A natural lip is always sexy for summer. One of the best ways of achieving that is by swiping on a lip balm with either no color to play up your own natural color or by using one with a hint of hue. Using a balm will make sure you have a soft, kissable pout without too much fuss. Try this colorless hydrating lip balm by Motives or this Lip Shimmer in Apricot by Burt’s Bees.
- Lip Gloss – A juicy gloss is an easy way to look polished at the beach or near a pool. For a sexy, laid back look try Motives Mineral Lip Shine in Scandal or, for a more flirty color, try Lancome’s Juicy Tubes Jelly in Berry Bold.
- Bright Lipstick –A great way to change your look for warmer days is by wearing a brighter color on our lips. But before you even think about putting on that lipstick, make sure your lips are prepped and smooth. Try using this Vitamin E Lip Treatment by Motives and then follow up with a bright orange or coral for updated summer looks. Those hot colors are perfect day or night this season.
