Does being away from home ever inspire you to try something outside your norm with your makeup routine? Like, the idea of being a different person in another city means you can wear a smoky eye with abandon when you’re a neutrals-only kind of person on your home turf? Or how about a bright red […]

Going as far back as Cleopatra, women have embraced the ritual of reddening their lips. Throughout history, painting mouths this colour has been associated with prostitution and the lower class, and it has been condemned by the church and viewed as witchcraft. Eventually it shed its negative associations, but one thing never changed: its ability […]

After what seems like a hundred seasons of “no makeup” makeup dominating the runways, the Spring 2016 shows brought back something we’d been seriously missing—fun. And colour!

The bold red lip at Rochas Spring 2013 has quite the enchanting quality to it. The shade? A deeply pigmented rosebud red. The texture? Perfectly matte. Paired with a fresh-faced no makeup look it’s the sort of colour that shows just how much influence a well-done lip can have. (Anyone who’s ever thrown on her favourite lipstick in place of doing any other makeup knows this trick well.) Makeup artist Lucia Pieroni used two different Clé de Peau lipsticks to create the velvety look for Rochas, applying “R1,” a blue toned brick-red shade first and then layering and “R2,” a cherry-red colour, on top. However, the almost vibrating lip colour has another trick: hot pink blush. According to Into The Gloss, Lucia Pieroni finished the look by brushing on pink pigment. She started at the centre of the lip, blending outward with a Q-tip, which both enhanced the matte texture and added depth to the colour. It’s a different take on the two-toned lip that’s been popular the last few seasons—less colour blocking, more multi-dimensional. Lucia Pieroni called the final colour “beetroot berry” and we’re just going to go ahead and rename it our favourite lip colour for Spring 2013.

When you ask most women which beauty product they couldn’t live without on desert island it usually comes down to either a great mascara or a favourite lip balm. The choices makes sense: a full, fluttery set of lashes brightens the eyes and draws attention away from under-eye circles or blemishes, and nothing’s worse than the thought of being trapped with chapped lips and not a single drop of lip balm in sight. Regardless of whether or not you’re facing exile to a desert island, you’ll certainly appreciate the tips in this week’s Beauty Fix.
